Tomorrow's World Book Day has inspired a slew of literary events throughout the capital. Xing Yi and Liu Zhihua report.

As World Book Day, April 23, approaches, various reading events are being held by government agencies, libraries and bookstores throughout the capital.

At the launch of the 5th Beijing Reading Season in Great Canal Park in Tongzhou district on Saturday night, 81-year-old Yin Zhiguang, head of Beijing Elocution Troupe, led the audience in reciting a poem.

Activities focusing on different readerships will highlight World Book Day in bookstores throughout Beijing, such as picture book sharing for children in Xidan Book Building, conversations with musicians and authors for young people in Sanlian Bookstore, talks with diplomats for people interested in international affairs in Wangfujing Xinhua bookstore, and a 12-hour late-night reading marathon for night owls at One-Way Space bookstore.

Recently, we conducted a survey about how many extra-curricular books students read per year. On average, each student read 5.34 books, which is definitely not adequate compared with their counterparts from the Western countries. It is upsetting to see the outcome. When asked what students in our school do in their spare time, they claim that they tend to watch TV and surf the Internet, for they can have great fun. Some students even complain that they are forced to attend some extra make-up classes so that they have no time to play, not to mention reading books.

School authority is planning to launch a campaign to encourage students to read more extra-curricular books.

Pango was a village in India. The people were poor. However, they were not unhappy. After all, their forefathers had lived in the same way for centuries.

Then one day, some visitors from the city arrived. They told the villagers there were some people elsewhere who liked to eat frog’s legs. However, they did not have enough frogs of their own, and so they wanted to buy frogs from other places.

This seemed like money for nothing. There were millions of frogs in the fields around, and they were no use to the villagers. All they had to do was catch them. Agreement was reached, and the children were sent into the fields to catch frogs. Every week a truck arrived to collect the catch and hand over the money. For the first time, the people were able to dream of a better future. But the dream didn’t last long.

The change was hardly noticed at first, but it seemed as if the crops were not doing so well. More worrying was that the children fell ill more often, and, there seemed to be more insects around lately.

The villagers decided that they couldn’t just wait to see the crops failing and the children getting weak. They would have to use the money earned to buy pesticides (杀虫剂)and medicines. Soon there was no money left.

Then the people realized what was happening. It was the frog. They hadn’t been useless. They had been doing an important job—eating insects. Now with so many frogs killed, the insects were increasing more rapidly. They were damaging the crops and spreading diseases.

Now, the people are still poor. But in the evenings they sit in the village square and listen to sounds of insects and frogs. These sounds of the night now have a much deeper meaning.

All you have is what you bring with you

I've always felt a need to be prepared for whatever situation I've found myself in.

My mother once took me to a store when I was seven years old.She and I got to the checkout counter, and she realized she had forgotten a couple of things on her shopping list.She left me with the cart and ran off to get what she needed.

"I'll be right back." she said.

She was gone just a few minutes, but in that time, I had loaded all the things on the belt and everything was rung up.I was left staring at the cashier, who was staling at me."Do you have money for me, son?" she said."I'll need to be paid." -

I didn't realize she was just trying to amuse herself.So I stood there, ashamed and embarrassed.

By the time my mom returned, I was angry."You left me here with no money! This lady asked me for the money, and I had nothing to give her I"

Now that I'm an adult, you'll never catch me with less than $200 in my wallet.I want to be prepared in case I need it.

"It's Okay." he announced."There's nothing to worry about."

We watched him walk over to his bag and pull something out.He had brought along a spare bulb for the Overhead projector.Who could even think of that?

You may have heard of the American Dream, an ideal that has powered the hopes of Americans for generations.

It began as a belief that the US was a land of opportunity, and that anyone could achieve success through hard work. At times, the dream has referred to home ownership, a good job, retirement security or each generation doing better than the last.

Yet today, this concept seems to have greatly changed. As Time magazine pointed out, quite different from the older generation, many Millennials (the generation born after 1980) redefine(重新定义) the American Dream as “day-to-day control of your life”. They “prize job mobility, flexible schedules, any work that is more interesting than typing, and the ability to travel”, said the magazine.

Home ownership, once the cornerstone of the American Dream, is becoming a smaller priority for this generation. Meanwhile, nearly 40% of them choose travel as part of their dream. And entrepreneurship(创业) is a rising favorite, as nearly 26% of Millennials consider self-employment as part of their dream.

So what has led to this huge change?

Many point fingers at the poor economy. “Modern young Americans seem bound to face a world stamped by ever narrowing opportunity and social stagnation(停滞),”noted The Daily Beast.

“The rate of 16-to 24-year-olds out of school and out of work is unusually high at 15%. Many college graduates have taken jobs that don’t require a degree,” Time reported.

The magazine worries that these difficulties may lead to a lost generation who are “unable to ever truly find their feet on the corporation’s ladder”.

Dan Kadlec, a reporter of Time, sees Millennials as resetting their expectations.”This situation is different for young adults today,” he wrote. “A true American dream has to feel attainable, and many Millennias are feeling they can only attain a day-today lifestyle that suits them.”

1.The underlined word “cornerstone” in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to “ ”.

A. growth B. balance C. basis D. purpose

2. What has changed Millennials’ view of the American Dream according to the passage?

A. A lack of confidence in themselves

B. Fierce competition in the job market

C. Their dissatisfaction with the government

D. The discouraging economy and unemployment

3.Dan Kadlec thinks Millennials’ new definition of the American Dream is ______.

A. beautiful B. understandable

C. worrying D. positive

4.What can be the best title for this passage?

A. Redefinition of American Dream

B. Meaning of American Dream

C. Value of Achieving American Dream

D. History of Changing American Dream
