【推荐3】Reading a book is helpful. But many people don’t know the ways to read a difficult book. The following steps will help you feel relaxed by the book you read.
Catch the main point. Pay attention to what you can catch, and leave behind what you cannot. You may understand something important through reading. However, there are some ideas that you may not follow. But remember to move on and you will get the main idea of the book.
Give it a first read. You may find that each section of the book needs special attention. However, it’s not good to keep your eyes on every word. It is better to get a general idea of the book, rather than reading the whole book carefully. The faster you read, the better you are at reading.
Give it a second read. This time you’d better read more slowly and more carefully. You should catch more details(详情) of the book. When you read the book for the second time, you would understand much that you did not understand earlier.
Reading a book is not a difficult task any longer if you know how to read a difficult book. It all depends on how you enjoy it. Difficulty lies in the mind, but not in the book.

【推荐1】It is true that times are changing for the old people in China. But not all changes are bad ones. Modern medicine, for example, has made old people healthier than ever before. Another advantage is that there are many more old people than there used to be, so old people often have a good life with their own organization. Finally they have more money than their own parents and grandparents had.
The biggest problem for the old people of modern life, however, is that they always feel lonely. The young leave home when they grow up and old people live alone. Fewer old people have brothers or sisters like their parents and grandparents. An old person’s one or two children may have moved to another part of the country. Even when live nearby, the young people have their own work to do and their own children to look after. They don’t have much time for the old. Problems of loneliness often start when they stop working. When people retire(退休) they find it difficult to start a new life without their jobs.
The world has changed so fast since 1990 that it is difficult for old people to understand the problems of the young. So what the old experienced is totally different from their children. And the world is changing even faster these days than fifty years ago. It makes you think, doesn’t it? What will it be like when today’s young people are old?
根据材料内容选择最佳答案。1. How many good changes for the old people are mentioned in the first paragraph?
A.One. | B.Two. | C.Three. | D.Four. |
A.Health. | B.Age. | C.Money. | D.Loneliness. |
A.Because they have different experiences. | B.Because they have different education. |
C.Because they have different cultures. | D.Because they have different languages. |
A.A daily magazine | B.A guide book | C.A sports newspaper | D.A story book |
A.The old people can understand the young. | B.The old people live a much better life today. |
C.The changes modern life has for the old people. | D.There are many more old people than there used to be. |
【推荐2】People who go to a formal Western dinner party for the first time may be surprised by table manners in Western culture. Knowing them will help you to behave properly.
First you should know how to put knives and forks. The forks are always on the left while knives on the right of the plate. When you see two spoons, you should know the bigger one is for soup and the small one for dessert. When you sit down at the table, you can take your napkin, unfold it and put it on your lap.
Then dinner starts with a small dish. Some people pray before they start eating, and other people may keep silent for a moment. After that everybody starts. After the small dish, you will get a bowl of soup-but only one bowl of soup and never ask for a second. Many Westerners like to use their fingers when they eating chicken or other birds at table, but never touch beef or other meat in bones. It is polite to finish eating everything on your plate, so don't take more food than you need. Of course you should try to speak quietly and smile a lot, but do not laugh all the time at the table.
However, table manners change over time. They follow the fashion of the day. Also, table manners are only important at formal dinner parties. If you're not sure what to do, you can always follow your hosts. Although good manners always make you look good, you do not need to worry about all these rules while having dinner with your friends or family.
