  Reading to dogs is an unusual way to help children improve their literacy skills (读写能力).With their shining brown eyes, wagging tails, and unconditional love, dogs can provide the nonjudgmental listeners needed for a beginning reader to gain confidence, according to Intermountain Therapy Animals (ITA) in Salt Lake City.The group says it is the first program in the country to use dogs to help develop literacy in children, with the introduction of Reading Education Assistance Dogs (READ).

  The Salt Lake City Public Library is sold on the idea.“Literacy specialists admit that children who read below the level of their fellow pupils are often afraid of reading aloud in a group, often have lower self-respect, and regard reading as a headache,” said Lisa Myron, manager of the children's department.

  Last November the two groups started “Dog Day Afternoon” in the children's department of the main library.About 25 children attended each of the four Saturday-afternoon classes, reading for half an hour.Those who attended three of the four classes received a “paw-graphed” book at the last class.

  The program was so successful that the library plans to repeat it in April, according to Dana Thumpowsky, public relations manager.

  At a few minutes past five, Dave noted that the blanket of darkness was lifting.He was just able to make out the heavier masses that eventually appeared as the familiar trees that lined the road at the base of the hill.The upper reaches of the sky showed lighter shades of gray.

  Dave got out of bed quietly and dressed quickly.He mixed a spoonful of instant chocolate into a glass of cold water, and his impatience forced him to finish the drink in gulps.

  As he walked down toward the lake, Dave paused to reach for the fishing pole and gear box on the bench where he had left them the night before.

  By the time he reached the small boat, a thick white mist(雾)had spread over the surface of the water.He stepped into the boat, sat down, and rowed out of the weed beds that lined the edge of the shore.

  The outer fringe(边缘)of the lake disappeared as the boat moved forward noiselessly.All he could see was the enveloping whiteness.He could not tell where the boat and the surrounding air met the surface of the lake.

  Dave rowed steadily ahead, relying on a mental picture of the surroundings.Then the mist began to rise, slowly.It soon rested inches above the still surface of the lake.The heavy silence was now being broken by the fish breaking through the surface as they leaped out of the water for low-flying insects.

  The magic time had arrived.Dave raised his pole.Dawn was broken.He was excited with expectancy.

  After battling hard times and danger for over nine months, British teenager Mike Perham made history last month as the youngest person to sail solo around the world.

  The 17-year-old made the record after he cleared the Panama Canal and then sailed through the Caribbean and got home across the Atlantic.

  Mike is only three months younger than Zac Sunderland, the 17-year-old American boy who had taken the crown as the youngest solo around-the-world sailor in July.

  The two youngsters met in Cape Town in South Africa as they crossed the globe in different directions.Mike insisted they were not rivals(竞争对手).“No.It's two teenagers going out there, living their dream and having the adventure of a lifetime,” he said.

  Mike may be young, but he is no stranger to sailing adventures.He picked up the hobby at the age of 6 when his father took him out in a small boat on a local lake.Father and son sailed separate boats across the Atlantic when Mike was 14, making him the youngest person to cross that ocean solo.That record gave him the taste for this even greater challenge.

  On the recent journey, the scariest moment for Mike came when his sailboat was hit by storms in the southern Indian Ocean.

  “We were picked up by what felt like a 60-foot wave and threw down on our side at 90 degrees,” he said.

  “It felt like I was going right over.Stuff was flying around and I just thought ‘Oh no'.”

  At other times, he had to dive into the Pacific and fix problems.He tied himself to the boat, jumped into the water and went to work with a knife in 30-second dives underneath the boat to cut a rope away.

  Mike said he felt proud that he made his dream come true.“You've got to have confidence in yourself that you will make it,” he said.
