A good book can teach you things beyond your class. It opens your eyes and clears your mind. If you want to get into a good reading habit, there are a number of ways to develop it.

Plan your time

You should give yourself at least thirty minutes in all to read every day. When time is set，nothing can change it. For example, make it a habit to read during breakfast or lunch time.

Always carry a book

Wherever you go, take a book with you. When you leave the house，make sure that you always carry a good book as well as your school things. Remember that a book always stays with you.

Find a quiet place

Find a place in your home where you can sit in a comfortable chair. When you read a book，make sure no one will trouble you. There should be no televisions, computers, music or even noisy family members around you.

Have a library card

Have a library card, and you can read as many good books as possible in the library. Make it a weekly trip to the library. You can save a lot of money.

Blog it

One of the best ways to develop a good reading habit is to put it on your blog. If you don't have one, create one. It's free. Ask your friends and family to go there to share your ideas and offer you suggestions.

A Play: Four Butterflies(蝴蝶)

Characters: Red Butterfly(RB)，Green Butterfly(GB)，Green Tree(GT)，Rose(R), Grandpa Sun(GS)

Look！There are four butterflies in the garden. One is red，one is yellow，one is green，and the last one is white. They play games and dance together every day，and they are very happy. One day，it's fine. Four butterflies are playing a game in the garden. Suddenly it is full of dark clouds and it begins to rain hard.

1.GB: Oh，it's raining hard.Green Tree is over there. She can help us… Green Tree，our wings are wet. Please let us stay under your leaves.

GT: Green Butterfly，I like you. We have the same colour. You can come in，but the other three butterflies must go away.

GB: No，thank you. We are good friends. We love each other and must stay together.

RB: Rose is over there. She can help us.

2.RB: Rose，our wings are wet. Please let us stay under your leaves.

R：Red Butterfly，I like you. We have the same colour. You can come in，but the other three butterflies must go away.

RB: No，thank you. We are good friends. We love each other and must stay together.

3.GS:   What good friends they are！This is a real friendship. I must help them.

The sun drives the clouds away and asks the rain to stop. Soon the sun gives off bright light and dries up their wings.

4Four butterflies: Oh，the sun comes out. Our wings are dry. Let's play and dance again.

Sue looked out of the window. All she saw was an old yellow and green ivy(常青藤)plant. The half­dead plant had few leaves on it because of the autumn winds.

“There are only five，now，” said Joanna.

“Five what，dear？What are you counting？”

“The ivy leaves，” Joanna answered. “When the last one goes，I'll die. I've known that for two days. Didn't the doctor tell you about it？”

“Joanna，don't say that. Now，eat some soup and I'll finish my picture.”

“I don't want any soup，” said Joanna，looking out of the window. “Now there are only four.”

“Joanna dear，try to sleep. I must ask Mr Berman to come up. I want to draw a picture of him as a poor old farmer.”

Mr Berman，who was over 60 years old，lived downstairs. He was a painter too，but he never sold anything，and he drank a lot. Sue told him all about what Joanna was saying.

“She can't really think about this will happen！The poor woman！” he cried.

…

Finally there was only one last leaf on the ivy plant. After a few windy days，the leaf was still there.

“Susie，” said Joanna，“I've been a bad girl. That last leaf is telling me that it was very wrong of me to want to die. Bring me some soup，dear.”

The next day，the doctor said，“She's out of danger. But poor Mr Berman downstairs is dying. There's no hope for him，I'm afraid.”

That afternoon Sue went into Joanna's bedroom.

“Joanna dear，Mr Berman died today. And do you know why？One terrible，cold wet night he took a ladder and some green and yellow paint and he climbed up，and— oh，look at the last ivy leaf on the wall！Why didn't it ever move in the wind？Can't you see？It was Mr Berman's last great picture. He painted it there the night that the last leaf fell.”
