Some students think it difficult to learn English well. That’s because they don’t find the right way. I think reading is very important for students. The more you read, the better you’ll understand. Reading is helpful to listening, speaking and writing.

If you often read English aloud, you’ll improve your listening. On the other hand, listening a lot can help you to read better. Reading English everywhere when you are free, if you wish. You can get a lot of knowledge when you read. Sometimes you need to express your ideas, you can either speak or write. That means you are using what you learned from reading. The same as Chinese, the more you read, the better you can write. If you want to remember something, you should read again and again. So from now on, you’d better do more reading. It’s a good way to learn English well.

Mrs.Green was eighty，but she had a small car，and she always drove to the shops on Saturday and bought her food.She didn’t drive fast because she was old，but she drove well and never hit(撞)anything.

Recently there are about 55,000 children who don’t go to school each day in England. According to the law（法律）,all children between five and sixteen must go to school on weekdays, and their parents must make sure of this.

The number of children missing school is increasing. The government is worried, because, according to a research, children who often don't go to school are more likely（可能的）to smoke, drink under age or do some other bad things. Also, it’s difficult for them to do well in exams. What’s more, it’s harder for them to get a job after they leave school. Since 2002,the police have kept checking town centers where truants（逃学者）often go. These happen twice a year. During each check, a student will be stopped and asked why they are not in school. This will happen even if they are with an adult. The police will stop and question（盘问）children who they think do not have a reason for being out of school. The police are not allowed to catch truants, but they can take them back to school. The police said there were nearly twice more boys playing truant（逃学）than girls.
