     This brief book is aimed at high school students, but speaks to anyone learning at any stage of life.
      Its formal, serious style closely matches its content, a school-masterly book on schooling. The author, W. H. Armstrong, starts with the basics: reading and writing. In his opinion, reading doesn't just mean
recognizing each word on the page; it means taking in the information, digesting it and incorporating it
into oneself just as one digests a sandwich and makes it a part of him. The goal is to bring the information
back to life, not just to treat it as dead facts on paper from dead trees. Reading and writing cannot be
completely separated from each other; in fact, the aim of reading is to express the information you have
got from the text. I've seen it again and again : someone who can't express an idea after reading a text is
just as ineffective as someone who hasn't read it at all.
     Only a third of the book remains after that discussion, which Armstrong devotes to specific tips for
studying languages, math, science and history. He generally handles these topics thoroughly and equally,
except for some weakness in the science and math sections and a bit too much passion regarding history. Well, he was a history teacher? if conveyed only a tenth of his passion to his students, that was a
hundred times more than my history teachers ever got across. To my disappointment, in this part of the
book he ignores the arts. As a matter of fact, they demand all the concentration and study that math and
science do, though the study differs slightly in kind. Although it's commonly believed that the arts can only
be naturally acquired, actually, learning the arts is no more natural than learning French or mathematics.
     My other comment is that the text aged. The first edition apparently dates to the 1960s-none of the
references(参考文献)seem newer than the late 1950s. As a result, the discussion misses the entire
computer age.
     These are small points, though, and don't affect the main discussion. I recommend it to any student
and any teacher, including the self-taught student.     
1. According to Armstrong, the goal of reading is to________. 
A. gain knowledge and expand one's view
B. expresses ideas based on what one has read
C. understand the meaning between the lines 
D. get information and keep it alive in memory
2. The author of the passage insists that learning the arts_________. 
A. is as natural as learning a language  
B. demands real passion
C. is less natural than learning math    
D. requires great efforts 
3. What is a shortcoming of Armstrong's work according to the author?
A. It lacks new information. 
B. The style is too serious. 
C. There is too much discussion.
D. Some ideas are slightly wrong.
4. This passage can be classified as________. 
A. an advertisement  
B. news report
C. a feature story  
D. a book review

     The first tape recorder didn't use tape. It used long thin wire. It was invented in 1900 by Valdermar
Poulsen. In 1930, German scientists invented the tape we use today. Back then the tape was on big rolls.
In 1964 the Philips company in Holland invented the cassette. It's pretty much a holder for the tape.
People use cassettes all over the world. If you don't have a cassette recorder, borrow one.
     Think of a book your parents read out loud to you. That might be a great book to read out loud to your
mom or dad in their car. Put a cassette in the recorder, open the book, hit the record button and start
reading out loud.
     Remember there is no such a thing as a wrong way to do this. You might think you've made a mistake,
but this gift is part of you, and nothing about that can be a mistake. It's impossible.
     You get to be all artistic and creative here. You might want to play music in the background. Do
whatever you want. The gift is you, so you decide. Remember to say "I love you"at the end of your
reading. That's like the prize at the end of the book. 
1: Choose the right order that shows the development of the tape recorder. 
   a. Using big rolls.   b. Using cassettes.    c. Using thin wire.
A. a,b,c  
B. b,c,a  
C. c,a,b    
D. c,b,a

3. What does the author advise us to do?
A. To read a book to our parents in their car

B. Because it's easy to use a tape recorder. 
C. Because the music is what your parents like.
D. Because it's impossible to find a mistake in the book.

     How to improve my life? Many people think that they have to accept whatever life throws at them.
They'll say, "This is my fate, my destiny. I cannot change it. "
     Of course not! You don't have to suffer needlessly. Your destiny depends on you, not on any other
external factors.
     I know someone who says she just accepts what life gives her because she has done everything she
can to improve it. Guess what her lifestyle is? She wakes up in the morning, goes to work, comes back
home, relaxes, chats with people, watches TV, then goes to sleep. Next day, the same routine cycle
follows.
      Huh! Is this what she calls "doing her best"? She believes she has tried her best and just accepts it in
her heart that this is the life that God has intended for her to live; that her luck can only change if God
wills it. Of course God wants us to be happy and live our life to the fullest, but we have to do our share
of exerting (运用) the effort to live the life of our dreams.
     Remember that you reap what you sow. You just don't sit around and wait for a million dollars to fall
from the sky. You have to get off the couch, get your eyes off the TV screen, get your hands off the
phone.  Don't expect your luck to change unless you do something about it. If something goes wrong,
don't just regard it as a temporary setback; but use it as feedback. Learn your lesson, make the most of
the situation, and do something to solve the problem. It's not enough to think positively: you also have to
act positively.
     If someone's life is in the trouble, do you just hope and pray that things will turn out fine? Of course
not! You get to do anything you can to save the person. So it is with your own life. It is not enough to
hope for the best, but you have to do your best. In other words, don't just stand (or sit ) there, do
something to improve your life.
1. According to the woman mentioned in Para. 3, her life ________.
A. doesn't need improving
B. couldn't be improved
C. will be better some day
D. will be worse in the future
2. What does the author think of the woman's life?
A. Positive.  
B. Satisfying.
C. Colorful.  
D. Passive.
3. Which of the following statements is the author's opinion?
A. Your temporary problem is not discouraging.
B. Your luck can be changed by your efforts.
C. You can only achieve success when God wills it.
D. You should treat yourself in the way you treat friends.
4. In Para. 5, the author emphasized the importance of ________.
A. positive action  
B. positive thinking
C. hope for the best  
D. intention to succeed
5. The text is mainly written to advise you to ________.
A. understand yourself  
B. improve your life
C. believe in yourself
