16．Everyone needs a break，and vacations are not meant for serious study．（56）F The Spring Festival is coming up so this is the perfect time to discuss some great English language literature to take on a long train journey．
Before getting into the recommendations，you need to determine your English reading comprehension level．If you're at the beginner's level，there are two options：reading a children's book or reading a book that you've read in Chinese translation．（57）G If you're at the intermediate level，popular books like pop fiction，mysteries and thrillers are good options．For advanced readers，classic works of literature or modern prize winners （Nobel，Pulitzer） are good options．
（58）B When I pick up a book I like，even though the first few chapters are really hard to get through，I would try to get accustomed to the language the author uses．Generally，after the first few chapters，things get a lot easier，especially if I get involved in the story．
Another great way to keep yourself motivated is to find a friend who's interested in reading the same book．You can make goals that you both want to achieve．（59）E
Some quick recommendations：Harry Potter，start with the first book and go on from there； the Narnia series； anything by U．S．writer Michael Crichton； and if you like horror，U．S．writer Stephen King is always unusual and fun．（60）D Happy reading!

F．Instead，they're a great way to take a break and enjoy a good book．
G．This will help you get over any unfamiliar words or phrases，since you're already familiar with the story．

15．The world has a fast growing population and people need more land for houses，factories，highways，and so on．The farmland is decreasing with each passing day．How to meet the need of feeding the growing population？One way is to introduce some high-output gene into a crop to enable it to produce more．Biologists over the years have discovered genes which can raise output of the crops，resist pests，improve taste，etc．
However，in many western countries there is widespread concern over the safety of"Genetically Modified"（GM）（转基因） foods，because they think there may be serious problems of environment，health，safety，morality and so on．
As a scientist I must admit GM foods involve great risks to humans．In fact in Europe they're called"Frankenstein foods"by many．Frankenstein is a character in a novel．He was a very clever scientist．He created a monster（怪物），which eventually killed him．
Soybeans can be made into many fooJds．However，it's hard to trace them．Therefore，it's very important we have to make sure the soybean，if genetically modified，is free from any poisonous matter harmful to human beings．For this we need very good testing．We do have some testing on some animals，but no completely satisfactory testing has ever been made so far．They're entirely new，and their problems are entirely unknown．It takes time to develop persuasive tests to know whether they're harmful to us or not．
We may not be able to tell what may happen if we take GM foods．Some of them may be resistant to antibiotics （抗生素）．Then many of the medicines we have today will have no effect on people eating GM foods．
A more likely case is the GM foods may contain genes some people are allergic to．
GM products have already come into our lives but most people even know nothing about it．At least we have to be clear about what we are eating．The China Consumers Association is calling for labeling （标注） on GM foods so that consumers will know before they buy them．
