  What is a language for? Some people seem to think it's for practising grammar rules and learning words. That's wrong. A language is for the exchange of ideas. It's no good knowing all about a language if you can't use it.

  Many students I have been taught to know hundreds of grammar rules, but they can't speak correctly or freely. They are afraid of making mistakes. One shouldn't be afraid of making mistakes. We native speakers make mistakes, too. And we break rules. Bernard Shaw once said, “Foreigners often speak English too correctly. “But the mistakes that native speakers make are different from those that Chinese students make. They are English mistakes in the English language. And if enough native speakers break a rule, it is no longer a rule. What use to be wrong becomes right. The people not only make history, they also make a language. They can make their own language. They can't make another people's language.

  So Chinese students of English should pay attention to the grammar, but they shouldn't over do it. They should put communication(交际) first.

  Light travels at a speed which is about a million times faster than the speed of sound. In a second, light travels about 300,000km, but sound travels only 340m. You can get some ideas of this difference by watching the start of a race. If you stand some distance away from the starter, you can see smoke come from his gun before the sound reaches your ears.

  This great speed of light produces some strange facts. Sunlight takes about 8 minutes to reach us. If you look at the light of the moon tonight, remember that the light rays left the moon 1.3 seconds before they reach you. The nearest star is so far away that the light which you can see from it tonight started to travel towards you four years ago at a speed of nearly 20 million km, per minute. In some cases, the light from one of tonight's stars started on its journey to you before you were born.

  Thus, if we want to be honest, we can not say,the stars are shining tonight.We have to say,The stars look pretty. They were shining four years ago but their light has only just reached the earth.

  Whenever the house gets quiet, Mrs Smith knows just where to find her 6-year-old daughter’Maria:lost in the world of stories.

  “I like to read every time of the day,” said Maria, a student at Creel Elementary School in Australia.

  Maria’s headmaster, Mrs White, wants each of her 850 students and their families to learn the love of reading this year.She wants reading at home to become an activity of choice in every family, even during holiday breaks.“I truly realize reading should be an important part of everyone's life, and nothing should stop it.”said Mrs White.

  “The aim we want most of all is to help children understand they can enjoy reading, as well as practice their skills,”said Hannas, an education researcher.He suggested parents take their children to the library and allow them to pick out books that interest them.

  Each night, students take home two books to read with their parents, or other family members.They have to return the books the next day with a signed note from their parents showing that the books were read, and have passing tests that check how well they understand the books.

  “We’re trying to get parents into the habit of reading with their kids.” said the headmaster. “Nothing is better than sitting on a sofa with your child and reading and laughing.”
