If you plan to mail your cards, remember to consider postage costs. Square cards look cool,

Look at unexpected sources.

You don’t have to order custom greeting cards with your family’s photo. 4. Check

dollar stores or even garage sales for affordable greeting cards. The best part is that when these cards don’t have a photo or the year printed on them, you can use any leftovers in the future.

Make your own.

Use old greeting cards(with written messages cut out,of course), wrapping paper and ribbons,

or magazine photos to create your own holiday cards.

Shop after-Christmas sales.

Starting from Dec. 26, sellers who want to clear out holiday stocks will deeply discount cars,

wrapping paper and decorations. 5.

A. Search for promotion codes.

B. Avoid paying for extra postage.

C. Buy envelopes for your cards for different purposes.

E. Preprinted greeting cards can cost less and work just as well.

Most book reviews start with a heading that includes all the basic information about the book, like:

Title.

Author.

Place of publication, publisher, date of publication.

Number of pages.

Like most pieces of writing, the review usually begins with an introduction that lets your readers know what the review will say. The first paragraph usually includes the author and title again, so your readers don’t have to look up to find this information. You should also include a very brief description of the contents of the book, the purpose or audience for the book, and your reaction and evaluation.

Then you move into a section of background information that helps place the book in context and discusses criteria (准则)for judging the book. Next, the review gives a summary of the main points of the book, quoting and explaining key phrases from the author. Finally, you get to the heart of your review – your evaluation of the book. In this section, you might discuss some of the following issues:

how well the book has achieved its goal

what possibilities are suggested by the book

what the book has left out

how the book compares with others on the subject

what specific points are not convincing

what personal experiences you’ve had related to the subject.

It is important to use labels to carefully distinguish your views from the author’s, so that you don’t confuse your reader.

Then, like other essays, you can end with a direct comment on the book, and tie together issues raised in the review in a conclusion.

There is, of course, no set form, but a general rule is that the first one–half to two–thirds of the review should summarize the author’s main ideas and at least one–third should evaluate the book.

1.What is the most important part of a book review?

A.The heading. B.The evaluation.

3.What is NOT suggested for a book review in this passage?

C.Analyzing only the author of the book.

D.Comparing the book with others of a similar subject.
