With the development of economics (经济), the problem of the left-behind children has become a serious social problem. More and more people have realized we should do something to help them.
The biggest problem is that the children are all hungry for the love from their parents. Many of them can just get a call or a letter from their parents half a year, a year or even several years. So some children can’t remember what their parents look like. When they meet their own troubles, they have no one to talk with. Nobody gives them enough care.
Because of being too far away from their parents, the left-behind children’s study is the second biggest problem. From a survey about their study, only two percent of the children get good results while ten percent of them are common and eighty-eight percent of them are poor. What a pity!
There are also many other problems of the left-behind children, such as having no ability to protect themselves, unhealthy lifestyles, spending too much pocket money and too much time on the Internet and so on.

Have you ever asked yourself this question, “Which books I need to read? Fiction or Non-Fiction?” To help you answer this question, I would like to explain the differences between the two kinds of books.
A fiction book is something not happened in real life. It can be a novel, a fairy tale, a short story or a play. Fiction writers are usually good at imagining. For example, they always try to tell you something through a story; they make readers think about their ideas. They usually write about love, family or life in their books. When you read fiction, you see the world through a character’s eyes. Looking at the world from a different way helps you get opinions about things around you.
Non-fiction books usually talk about a truth or an opinion about real things. It mainly includes informational books, biographies (传记), research, or history. Non-fiction helps readers get knowledge (知识) about the world. This knowledge is helpful for reading fiction books. Also, reading non-fiction helps readers understand problems and find ways to solve them. You can also learn useful lessons from successful people in the book.
①Reading is a very good habit. ②Both kinds of books help you learn more about yourself and the world. They bring you a lot of happiness.
1. What do fiction writers usually write about in their books?2. What else can we know from the passage?
3. Which books do you want to read, fiction books or non-fiction books? Give your reasons.

7 . Large stores are doing a lot of different things to try to attract more shoppers. Many of them now have greeters who stand near the door. The greeters' job is to say hello to the shoppers and make them feel at home. They also help people find what they are looking for and answer any other question. College students often take jobs as greeters. Greeters don't get paid very well, but they don't need to spend much time on the job. They have the time to do other things like study.
Discount programs are also a way to attract shoppers. Some stores give discounts if a shopper spends a certain amount of money. For example, the shopper may get 20 percent off on the first $100 he or she spends. When the shopper spends over $ 100, the discount may reach 25 percent. This encourages shoppers to spend more money at this store.
