With so many other ways to get information these days, do we still need books? Old habits die hard, and are passed down from generations. If your parents read to you, the chances are you will read to your children and so on. Well, that is an ideal world.

I think it comes from the educational side of life. If you have a good experience in school with books, then reading on after school years won't be a problem. For me I did very well in English language and literature as I had an inspiring and interesting English teacher who let us write our stories freely without correcting our spelling right away. The creative side of you should always come first and then the technical errors can be corrected.

Starting reading early is very important to children's relationship with books. If you casually read to your children then the books will have always been there in their lives and by the time reading comes along at the age of 4－5 years old it will all be fun and start to make sense. It has to be said that books are vital to learning.

Getting information and searching on the Internet is fine and necessary at this moment but it requires reading and reading requires practice, I believe we should relax whilst learning and digesting facts and information, and this can only be done with the simple book. Learn the basic habit of reading a book and then expand on and use the technology available, like e－books to make things convenient. But when you're not in a rush or whilst on a sunny beach, spending time with your children, what could be better than holding that book in your hands and feeling the achievement of getting to the last page?

A. form the habit of reading in time

B. have no idea of their relationship with books

C. lose the interest in reading books later

If we really want to be happy, why do we complain all the time in our daily life? We can be active in our life by setting goals and going   34   what we want. But if we’re always expressing complaints, we can not really live   35 .
If you don’t believe me,   36   how many times you complain about something or other in one day. Whether it is being stuck in traffic, being bothered by the weather, or whatever it is, there are endless   37   where you can find a reason to complain. But it’s not just outside circumstances   38   we complain about. We also complain about   39 . We complain constantly that we don’t have enough time, that we don’t have enough money and that we’re not   40   enough, cool enough, or just enough.
Most of us have experienced plenty of unpleasantness   41   complaining about things we can’t control, so do I. And I   42   really thought about it much until I found the website about “living in a complaint-free world”, which   43   my attitude towards life.
Imagine how   44   you would be if you simply stopped being a complainer.   45   of what you complain of is outside of your control anyway.   46 , it is no use thinking about something you have no power to change. When you   47   that you’re complaining, stop and ask yourself if you would rather complain, or be happy.
In our daily life, we have many choices. As Dale Carnegie puts it, any fool can criticize and complain but it takes character and   48   for the wise persons to live a complaint-free and happy life.

It was an unforgettable experience. By the time we made it to the 36 , my hands were wet. I 37 he would remember everything I had taught him over and over again. 38 he stopped and asked, “So, Mom, how do you like my 39 ?”
I must admit that his performance was 40 . He had both hands on the wheel. His eyes never left the highway and his handling was far better than I’d ever imagined it would be, 41 it still needed improving.
Several 42 ago, I was teaching him to ride his bike. We started 43 . The third grade primary school student was 44 that his training wheels were taken off. Of course it was a long evening. He 45 several times but always got up quickly and kept 46 until he mastered riding.
Viewing the 47 , I guess it really wasn’t about him driving. It was about him 48 ---gaining more and more independence; not 49 me so much anymore.
He will be a(n) 50 in high school this fall. This will truly be a 51 year for both of us. He’s ready to have one of the best years of his young life and I will have (a) complete mental 52 . For this is probably the last year that my baby will be at home on a(n) 53 basis.
After this school year, he’ll go to college and then into the real world. Things all happen so 54 .
Now I see the time has just arrived for him to perform what he’s learned.
So, I guess you could say his driving lessons are lessons for me too. Yes, I’m being 55 that it’s his time to drive through life’s green lights and move towards his future as smoothly and skillfully as possible.

A Strange Greeting, a True Feeling Last week I was invited to a doctor’s meeting at the Ruth hospital for incurables. In one of the wards a patient, an old man, got up shakily from his bed and moved towards me.

Mrs. West, then about 75, was a strong, capable woman, as she had to be, of course, because Frank   14 on her entirely. He needed all the   15  of a baby.
One night a policeman came and told Mrs. West that her house had been flattened by a 500-pounder. She   16 nearly everything she owned.
When that sort of thing happened, the rest of us helped the   17 ones. So before we   18   that morning, I stood beside Frank and   19  my right foot against his. They were about the same size. That night, then, I took a pair of shoes to the shelter for frank. But as soon as he saw me he came running and placed his right foot against mine. After that, his   20  to me was always the same.
