　　When you are learning English，listening，speaking and writing are important，but reading can also be very helpful．When you read，you can not only learn some new words，but also learn how to use these English words．When you read，it gives you a good example for writing．

　　Good reading tips (建议)：

　　Try to read at the right level (水平)．Read something that you can (more or less)understand．If you need to stop every three words to use a dictionary，it is not interesting．

　　Try to increase the number of your new words．If there are four or five new words on a page，write them in your notebook．But you don't have to write them while you read．Instead try to guess their meaning as you read；mark them with a pen．Then come back when you have finished reading to look them up in a dictionary and write them in your own vocabulary (词汇) book．Then try to remember them．

　　Try to read regularly (定期)．For example，read for a short time once a day．Fifteen minutes every day is better than two hours every Sunday．Fix (固定) a time to read and keep to it．For example，you could read for fifteen minutes when you go to bed，or when you get up or you are at lunchtime．

　　Read what interests you．Choose a book or a magazine about a subject that you like，because you are going to spend time and money to read it．So choose an interesting book．You can also read newspapers．There are many English newspapers in China．For example，21st Century Teens．It's easy enough for you to understand．There is something interesting in it．
