Reading英语作文〔精选10篇〕Reading英语作文篇1My favorite books are Readers and VOA. Readers cover the knowledge of culture, literature, and history, so I can benefit a lot by reading it. VOA can let me know the foreign countries better. Thanks to VOA, my oral English is improving day by day.This is my good habit that I will keep it forever.Reading英语作文篇2Do you enjoy reading books online?Which way will you most likely choose while reading? I suppose most of you may select to read online. Owing to the information explosion in the 21st century, we are all expected to keep up with time. To a certain extent, we have no time to read calmly. Our brains are like a data bank that absorb and abandon news at the same time.Reading itself is beneficial to us, so just choose any possible way to read. In my eyes, the more natural,the better. Why don't we use the simplest way reading books rather than reading online? Though I admit that reading online is more attractive, it can't replace paper reading.How to get ready for online learningNowadays, inter is moderner and moderner!So, learning is not noly in school, it is also on line! It called “online learning”!Before do everything, we must get ready for it, and “online learning” also need many preparation.Now, let's dicuss ho w to get ready for “online learning”! First we must have a puter, and it can also connect to the inter. Secondly, we must have a teacher. Thirdly, we also need a small camera and an earphone with a microphone, so that the teacher can supervise us expediently!That's all! I hope, we'll learn on line in the future!Reading英语作文篇3The book, with me through the twelve seasons, growth years always filled with books fragrance. When you feel lonely, belong to me forever; impulse, the book taught me the calm; pain, books give me joy, fort; the book with me to share......With a good book, no bother, sitting in a chair,or in the early morning ordusk, thinking of flying pigeon, let the mood and the wind dance. At thistimeat the chair I, like a living sculpture. Read my sad tears of joy will splash;read, I will can't helpto laugh, feel like a happy bird; read the brilliantis can not let go, will simply call up, repeatedly applauded.From my first contact with the book, I had the indissoluble bound with thebook. Types of books I read so much, top know astronomy, knowledge of geography,as long as it is good, it look. Because of my small room is full of books, every time I walk into a room,I feel like being in a sea of books. Iespecially love to read a book for a while, often do homework, handson more than a book, eat with appetite to “bite”,homework is to forget.Whenever I tread air, mom has “ghost” like standing behind me, “mine” type of voice I fried up, then take my book. But, don't worry, my book is much!This is not the “ghost” just left, I went to “chew” another book. Because I usually a “bite” is more than an hour, did not feel tired, so always have not enough time to do homework. For this mother not to criticize me many times.But even so, my passion for books is still not reduced, instead of the book iseven more obsessed with.As Golgi said: “the book is the ladder of human progress.” Reading their own joy of reading!Reading英语作文篇4The “Nationwide Reading”has been put in the gover____ent work report in order to encourage a love of reading in all Chinese people.But there are a large number of peopel have different reasons for they don't read.Some peopeldon't read enough in their spare time.Maybe reading is not the first chioce for them.And Some people are sobusy that they don't have enough time to read, while others think that reading is useless.As far as I am concerned, I don't agree with them.Firstly, reading not olny helps us learn more about knowledge but also opens up a whole new world which we never know to us.Secondly, it could help us to think better and improve our skills, such as writing, talking and even survival skills. The third reason is, reading could bring many benfits to us such as wisdom and different perspectives in the same thing.All in all, we could find lots of advantages through reading.Reading英语作文篇5At present only a few students do some reading after class. Here are several reasons.I hope school hold a reading activity once a week, so that students can have enough time to read. I suggest students reading before going to bed. it helps us sleep better.Reading英语作文篇6Reading is playing an important part in my dailying can make us enjoy our ing has numerous ing helpsus to work engeretically.Reading英语作文篇7Hello, everybody! I'm a 12-year-old girl. Maybe I look ordinary, but in fact I'm special! Because I like reading! And reading makes me a special girl!When I was young, I liked to read ic books. There were lots of interesting stories in them. I always imagined that I were the princess in the story!As I grow up, I bee interested in reading Chinese literary works, such as famous novels, graceful proses, which helps me a lot in my writing! I won the first prize in the position Contest last year!One day my English teacher brought us a 21st Century Teens newspaper. I was attracted by its colorful, vivid and interesting contents at once! By reading it, I learn lots of new words, idioms, and some other things about foreign cultures! And it oftentakes us to travel around the world! I love English much more than before!I'm a reading fan! And I'm a special girl!Reading英语作文篇8he first thing I want to insist on is that reading should be enjoyable. Of course, there are many books that we all have to road, either to pass examinations or to acquire information, from which it is impossible to extract enjoyment. We aro reading them for instruction, and the best we can hope is that our need for it will enable us to get through them without todium. Such books wo read with resignation rather than with alacrity. But that is not the sort of roading I have in mind. The books I shall mention in due course will help you neither to get a degree nor to earn your living, they will not teach you to sail a boat or get a stalled motor to run, but they will help you to live more fully. That, however, they cannot do unless you enjoy reading them.Every man is his own best critic. Whatever the learned say about a book, however unanimous they are in their praise of it, unless it interests you, it is no business of yours. And you who read are the final judge of the value to you of the book you are reading. We are none of us exactly like everyone else, only rather like, and it would be unreasonable to suppose that the books that have meant a great deal to me should be precisely those that will mean a great deal to you. But they are books that I feel the richer for having read, and I think I should not be quite the man I am if I had not read them. No one is under an obligation to read poetry or fiction or the miscellaneous literature which is classed as belleslettres. He must read them for pleasure, and who can claim that what pleases one man must necessarily please another?Reading英语作文篇9Goethe once said, “One book, one world.” Sit quietly in the book house, hold a book, hold a cup oftea, listen to the ear rustle turn the book sound, smell the light book, wandering in the world of books, fortable and fortable. Reading is one of the great joys in my life.When I was a child, I just liked the wonderful feeling when I rubbed my fingers with paper, while my mother let me read ic books, ics and picture books at an early age. Mother's order is hard to disobey. Sometimes, playing in the outside of the dripping Sweat of Me, back to the study, holding a ic book, crossed legs, pour also see with relish. See wonderful place, I can't help but dance; I burst out laughing at the humor. Sometimes I fall down from the chair by accident, but I don't know the pain as if I have been drugged. What fatigue has been forgotten and I suddenly feel at ease. When I was a child, I felt the pleasure of reading lies in the physical and mental pleasure!Now reading, not for the house of gold, not forthe face, but because I have quietly fallen in love with the finger of the world. I used to be crazy aboutthe TV series Journey to the West, and I used to watch it all day long. This summer vacation, I began to reconnect with journey to the west. I bought a thick copy from the bookstore and stayed in my room for a month with the help of “sogou” and “ancient C hinese dictionary”. The text overflows with annotations. After hard reading, I always feel that it is much more wonderful than the TV series, but also from time to time appeared many pictures, only the Monkey King three dozen white bone essence chapter, I fantasized dozens of times.Books are the evergreen trees in people's lives. Reading keeps my mind fresh. In the face of those great literary works, poems and poems, I gently open the pages as if I had entered a vast, wonderful and extraordinary world. “One book one world”, intoxicated in the book world, like riding on a horse in the wilderness, such as rafting between the West Lake, as happy in the game, infinite happiness!Reading英语作文篇10It's no doubt that reading can enrich our knowledge. We can't speak without reading, we can't write without reading. I can't imagine how life will be if we have no books to read.If I don't read books, I won't know there are other countries besides China. If I don't read books, I won't understand the earth is around. If I don't read books, I won't see life is colourful.I'm so lucky, because I'm living happily and peacefully. Today, I can read when I'm dull. I also can read whenever I'm happy or sad. I'm very grateful we have books. And I'm excited the Reading Festival is hold in our school. What I want to say is reading is as important as breathing. Frankly speaking, theunfair is full of our life, but reading is fair to everybody. How much you read, how much you will get.Many years ago, before cable television, videos, video games, and the inter appear- reading was main way for us to learn. The students always spent hours reading books, imaging and learning. Now unfortunately we have lost the skills to read and the passion toread. My fellow students, reading is our most important task now, we can't give up reading. Let's help each other to learn how to read, let's read together. e on!。

如果你失败了，千万别忘了总结教训。

1. Mental StimulationStudies have shown that staying mentally stimulated can slow the progress of (or possibly even prevent) Dementia, since keeping your brain active and engaged prevents it from losing power. Just like any other muscle in the body, the brain requires exercise to keep it strong and healthy, so the phrase “use it or lose it” is particularly apt when it comes to your mind. Doing puzzles and playing games such as chess have also been found to be helpful with cognitive stimulation. mental stimulation振奋精神Studies have shown that…研究表明…staying mentally stimulated保持精神振奋slow the progress of减慢…的进程dementia [dɪ'menʃə] 痴呆症apt恰当的，适当的when it comes to …当提到…do puzzles猜谜语have been found to be被发现是…cognitive stimulation认知刺激so the phrase “use it or lose it” is particularly apt when it comes to your mind所以当我们说到脑子的时候，这个说法“用进废退”特别的贴切2. Stress ReductionNo matter how much stress you have at work, in your personal relationships, or countless other issues faced in daily life, it all just slips away when you lose yourself in a great story. A well-written novel can transport you to other realms, while an engaging article will distract you and keep you in the present moment, letting tensions drain away and allowing you to relax.No matter how much stress you have at work无论在工作上你有多少压力it all just slips away when you lose yourself in a great story当你沉浸在一个好的故事中，所有的压力都会瞬间消失A well-written novel can transport you to other realms一个好的小说会把你送到另外一个王国t ransport … to… 把…送到…realm [relm]王国，领域，范围distract sb 转移某人的注意力let tensions drain away让紧张被抽干The best preparation for tomorrow is doing your best today.对明天做好的准备就是今天做到最好！3. KnowledgeEverything you read fills your head with new bits of information, and you never know when it might come in handy. The more knowledge you have, the better-equipped you are to tackle any challenge you’ll ever face.Additionally, here’s a bit of food for thought: should you ever find yourself in dire circumstances, remember that although you might lose everything else—your job, your possessions, your money, even your health—knowledge can never be taken from you.come in handy 随手可用food for thought引人深思的事here’s a bit of food for thought 引人深思的事情有：dire circumstances可怕的情况in dire circumstances在可怕的情况下possessions [pə'zeʃənz] n. [经] 财产；所有物（possession的复数形式）remember that although you might lose everything else—your job, your possessions, your money, even your health—knowledge can never be taken from you. 棒棒的表达，前后对比，突出主题4. Vocabulary ExpansionThis goes with the above topic: the more you read, the more words you gain exposure to, and they’ll inevitably make their way into your everyday vocabulary. Being articulate and well-spoken is of great help in any profession, and knowing that you can speak to higher-ups with self-confidence can be an enormous boost to your self-esteem. It could even aid in your career, as those who are well-read, well-spoken, and knowledgeable on a variety of topics tend to get promotions more quickly (and more often) than those with smaller vocabularies and lack of awareness of literature, scientific breakthroughs, and global events.Reading books is also vital for learning new languages, as non-native speakers gain exposure to words used in context, which will ameliorate their own speaking and writing fluency.gain exposure to 接触到make their way自发的make their own way into your everyday vocabulary 自发的融入你的日常词汇中be an enormous boost to 对……有极大的帮助be an enormous boost to your self-esteem对你的自尊有很大的帮助lack of awareness of 对……缺乏认识lack of awareness of literature, scientific breakthroughs, and global events 对文学、科学背景及全球事件缺乏认识is vital for 对……至关重要Reading books is also vital for learning new languages读书对学习新语言是非常重要的non-native speakers gain exposure to words used in context 非常好的表达，ameliorate [ə'miːlɪəreɪt] vt. 改善；减轻（痛苦等）；改良vi. 变得更好speaking and writing fluency 说话、写作的流利度5.Memory ImprovementWhen you read a book, you have to remember an assortment of characters, their backgrounds, ambitions, history, and nuances, as well as the various arcs and sub-plots that weave their way through every story. That’s a fair bit to remember, but brains are marvellous things and can remember these things with relative ease. Amazingly enough, every new memory you create forges new synapses (brain pathways)and strengthens existing ones, which assists in short-term memory recall as well as stabilizing moods. How cool is that?6. Stronger Analytical Thinking SkillsHave you ever read an amazing mystery novel, and solved the mystery yourself before finishing the book? If so, you were able to put critical and analytical thinking to work by taking note of all the details provided and sorting them out to determine “whodunnit”.That same ability to analyze details also comes in handy when it comes to critiquing the plot; determining whether it was a well-written piece, if the characters were properly developed, if the storyline ran smoothly, etc. Should you ever have an opportunity to discuss the book with others,you’ll be able to state your opinions clearly, as you’ve taken the time to really consider all the aspects involved.To be yourself ! 做自己！7. Improved focus and concentrationIn our internet-crazed world, attention is drawn in a million different directions at once as we multi-task through every day. In a single 5-minute span, the average person will divide their time between working on a task, checking email, chatting with a couple of people (via gchat, skype, etc.), keeping an eye on twitter, monitoring their smartphone, and interacting with co-workers. This type of behaviour causes stress levels to rise, and lowers our productivity.When you read a book, all of your attention is focused on the story—the rest of the world just falls away, and you can immerse yourself in every fine detail you’r e absorbing. Try reading for 15-20 minutes before work (i.e. on your morning commute, if you take public transit), and you’ll be surprised at how much more focused you are once you get to the office.In our internet-crazed world 在网络非常疯狂的年代(作文可用)attention is drawn in a million different directions注意力被极多不同方向吸引keeping an eye on twitter, monitoring their smartphone, and interacting with co-workers.留意推特,监视着手机(紧盯手机),与同事互动(co-workers 好单词)the rest of the world just falls away全世界(剩下的)全部消失了on your morning commute在早上上班的时候take public transit乘坐公共交通工具This goes hand-in-hand with the expansion of your vocabulary: exposure to published, well-written work has a noted effect on one’s own writing, as observing the cadence, fluidity, and writing styles of other authors will invariably influence your own work. In the same way that musicians influence one another, and painters use techniques established by previous masters, so do writers learn how to craft prose by reading the works of others.goes hand-in-hand with 和…有亲密关系(紧密联系) 表意：手拉手的has a noted effect on对…有很大影响invariably influence 很大影响到painters use techniques established by previous masters 画家所用的技巧是之前大师所创立的。

But I'm serious about running.__14__(be) a professional runner is the only thing I have ever wanted to do.”Mr and Mrs Liu believe that Liu Yu should study hard in the evenings, and so they don't allow him _15_(practice) __16__(run) on school nights. “I know this might seem strict,” says Mrs Liu, “but we think we're doing the right thing. He has to understand that very few people can become professional athletes. It's a very difficult dream __17_(achieve).

But are everybody’s dream the same? Here are some of the finding of a survey about hopes and dreams, in which thousands of students across China 2 （take）part. What are the hopes of teenagers?We 3 (receive) several different answers to the question: what would you like to do after 4 (finish) your education? It seems some students would like 5 (start) work as soon as possible, so that they can help 6 (provide) better lives for their pare nts. Other students hope to continue 7 (study) af ter 8 (finish)school and to go to university. Al though money is important, many teenagers 9 (say) t hey want 10 (do)jobs they enjoy. According to th e survey, the most popular choice of job is computer programming.What are the dreams of teenagers?Teenagers have all kinds of dreams. Some are 11 (realistic) than others. For example, many students said they would like to be volunteers at the 2008 olympics, maybe 12 (work) as translators to t our guides. And quite a few said they dream of 13 (go)to the moon one day.According to the survey, less realistic dreams are also common, but many students 14 (report) that they 15 (be)willing to work hard 16 (achieve) their dreams. Quite a few dream of 17 (become)famous, perhaps famous sportspeople or singers. Some said they’d love 18 (go) on exciting trips; one stude nt said she’d love to sail across the Pacific Ocean. And then there are dreams that are impossible; three students said they’d like to be able 19 (fly)! ConclusionIt 20 (be)clear from the survey that teenagers have similar hopes. It 21 (seem) that most stude nts hope to have a good education and find a good job. On the other hand, students dream of very different things: good things, and even crazy things. It is veryimportant to dream, so hold on to your dreams; one day they may just come true.Unit 8I’ll send you a photo of Lucky.Dear Miss Li,I’d like to thank you for 1 (send) money to “ Animal Helpers”, an organization 2 (set )up to help disabled people. You see, you 3 (help)make it posiible for me to have “Lucky”, who 4 (fill)my life with pleasure. Let me 5 (tell) you my story.6 (be)blind, deaf, unable7 (walk) or use your hands easily is something that most people cannot imagine. But there are many people who8 (face) these challenges, and I am one of them. Because I can’t9 (use) my arms or legs well, normal things like 10 (answer)the telephone, opening and shutting doors or carrying things have always been difficult for me. Then one day last year, a friend of mine said that she would like to help me out. She said she would 11 (talk) to “Animal Helpers” to see if it would be possible for me 12 (get) a specially trained dog. She also 13 (think)a dog might 14 (cheer) me up. I told her that I love animals and that I’d love to have a dog.After six months of 15 (train) with a dog at “Animal Helpers”, I 1 6 (be)able to bring him home. My dog’s name is “Lucky”---a good name for him because I feel very lucky 17 (have) him. You see, I’m only able to have a “dog—helper” because of your kind donation! How 18 Lucky 18 (help) me you might ask? Well,he ______19___(train)to understand different instructions. For example, I say, “Lucky! Fetch my book,” and he does it at once. He is very clever and understands many English words, even some difficult ones like “upstairs”. Lucky is an amazing dog. I 20 (send) you a photo of him if you like, and I could show you how he 21 (help) me too one day. And so I thank you again for 22__ (support) “Animal Helpers”.It is very important that this organization 23 (not run) out of money. Your donationis greatly appreciated and the money is well 24 (use) to help disabled people like meUnit9If you travel around China you 1 (notice) a very popular activity everywhere you go--basketball. This much-loved and active sport 2(enjoy) by many, for fun and exercise.The sport of basketball is a little over a hundred years old. It is played by more than 100 million people in over 200 countries 3 (include) China ,where basketball has been play in parks, schools, and even in factories.Basketball 4 (invent) by a Canadian doctor 5 (name) James Naismith, who was born in 1861. When he was at college, his class 6 once 6 (ask)to invent a new game that could be played indoors during the long winters. Dr Naismith created a game to 7 (play) on a hard wooden floor, so the safety of the players was important. 8 (Knock) into players and falling down would be dangerous. Dr Naismith divided the men in his class into two teams and taught them how 9 (play) his new game. The aim of basketball is for players to get a ball into the "basket";a new hanging from a metal hoop. Plays shoot from below the basket and may use the "backboard" for 10 (guide) the ball into the basket. Players move towards one end of the court while throwing the ball to each other.It 11 (believe) that on December 21st, 1891, the first basketball game in history was played. Then in 1936 in Berlin, it became an Olympic event. A team from China took part, and although they 12 (win) they used the experience to help develop the game at home. Since then, the popularity of basketball 13 (rise) worldwide, and the number of foreign players in America's NBA (National Basketball Association) 14 (increase). Basketball has also become a more popular sport for people to watch, and many young people dream of 15 (become) famous basketball players.Unit 11Asking for information or help 1 (be) a very common and necessary activity, especially when we visit a foreigncountry. So 2 (know)how to ask for information politely is important.In English ,where are the restrooms? and Could you please tell me where the restrooms are? Are similar requests- both 3 (be)correct English, but the first could sound rude. It’s important 4 (use) correct language, but sometime this alone is not enough-we need 5(lean) how to be polite when we make requests . In English, just like in Chinese , we change the way we speak when talking with different people. The expressions you use 6 (depend )on whom you are speaking to or how well you know them. If you say to your teacher ,Where is my book? Your question will sound much more polite. On the other hand, it might be alright to to say Where is my book? In some situations, perhaps with people you know well.And you would not usually say, Peter ,lend me your pen.A very direct order like this 7 (sound) rude in English. Usually in English polite questions are longer and include extra language such as Could you pleas….?or Can I ask```? It sounds more polite to say, Peter, Could you please lend me your pen? Sometimes we might even need to spend some time 8 (lead) in to a question or request, for example, if you stop a stranger in the street, we might first say, Excuse me, I wonder if you can help me or I’m sorry 9 (trouble) you but, before 10 (ask) them for help.It might seem that 11(speak) politely is more difficult than 12 (be) direct, and in a way this may be true. However, in order 13 (not offend) people, 14 (learn)about language etiquette is just as better at English, or any other language you wish to speak.Unit 12You’re supposed to write quickly!Can you write in English? And can you also write e-mail English? Maybe not. E-mail English is a new kind of 1 (write) English that is being used to save time.A lot of e-mail English words 2 ( look) unfamiliar to us- many look like rubbish! This is because they come from a computer program 3 (call) ICQ, which means I seek you. ICQ is an e-mail “ chatline ” that people use to have online conversations with friends. One Canadian teachersays, “ People can use their computers 4 ( talk) to each other. But you are supposed to type quickly so the other person 5 (not get) bored, so using e-mail English 6 (help) you write quickly.”E-mail English mostly uses two types of words. The first is “ abbreviation”. This 7 (form) by using the first letter of each word in the phrase. For example, BTW means “ by the way”, and CSL means “ can’t stop 8 (laugh)”. The second kind of word is a “ homophone”- it’s created by 9 (combine) letters and symbols, or numbers, to sound like other words. An example of this 10 (be) to write “ great” as “ gr8”, or to write” see you later” as “CUI8r”.When you write e-mail English you 11 ( not need) to use punctuation marks only in the traditional way. You are also supposed to use them to show the emotion you 12 ( feel). These are called “ emoticons”. The advantage of 13 (use) punctuation marks is that you can make faces with them. The most common one is the happy face- it 14 (look) like this :) and it 15 (make) with a colon and a right bracket beside it.E-mail English is fun—it’s almost like writing riddles. You 16 (learn) it easily by yourselves, and experiment with your own ideas. It is not rude 17 ( write) e-mail English, but it is important to use it only at the proper time—when you 18 ( e-mail) a friend, or sending a message to a friend on a mobile phone. But you 19 (not use) it in class, and remember your teachers 20 (not be) pleased if you write e-mail English in a test!Unit 13Many books have been written about “the art of giving”. But what about the art of receiving? Sometimes, 1 (receive) a gift can be difficult, especially when someone buys you a gift you 2 (not want)!“I remember when I was about twelve years old, my parents bought me a purple purse,” laughs Guo Xiaojing. “It really made me 3 (feel) embarrassed, because to be honest, I thought the purse was really ugly!Still, I pretended thatI liked it because I knew it 4 ( make )my parents happy!”Han Ling agrees. “That sounds like my grandparents!A few years ago, my grandparents gave me an orange sweater for my birthday. I used 5 (wear) it every time I visited them, but when I left their house, I took it off!Of course, this made me feel guilty. It was a very nice thought, but my grandparents have different taste from me!I think it’s hard 6 (buy) clothes or other personal things for people.”7 (make) things easier, some people would rather just give money. In some cultures, however, receiving money can make people uncomfortable. “When someone 8 (give) me money, it just makes me think they’re being lazy,” says John Wilson. “In England, we have a saying: It’s the thought that 9 (count). When someone gives me money, I feel they don’t think at all. I prefer 10 (receive )a gift that 11 (have) some thought behind it. I don’t mind if it’s something I don’t need. If someone 12 (think) about a gift for me, it always makes me happy.”Different people have very different thoughts on this subject!So maybe the art of receiving is even more difficult than the art of giving!What do you think?Unit 141 you 1 (be)back to the place where your ancestors lived, worked, studied and played? Robert Qian, a Ch inese Canadian, already 2 (have). Now in China, he has found that his family is like a tall tree with long roots.Robert is just one young overseas Chinese who has come to visit his ancestors' homeland, as part of the In Search of Roots summer camp program. The program 3 (organize) by the local government of Guangdong Pro vince. This program 4 (start) in 1980, and so far 5 ( bring) thousands of overseas Chinese students to Ch ina to look for their families' roots. The young people are usually between 16 and 25 years old. Most, like Robert, 6 hardly 6 (speak) any Chinese, and have n ever been to China before.The students mainly visit parts of Guangdong Provincein southern China. During the two-week camp, they 7(study) Chinese culture, see changes that have happene d in that area, and visit interesting sights. 8 (go) to their ancestors' village is often the most exciting part of the trip. The students feel that they are par t of the village, and 9 (experience)village life. They drink from the village well, go for walks through the countryside, and watch the villagers 10(do) their daily activities.Cathy Qin, a young American student, had this to say, "Thanks to In Search of Roots, I 11 (begin)to unders tand my Chinese roots, and who I am. It has been a g reat trip, and I have so many memories of China 12 ( take )with me"The program leaders believe strongly in the program, a nd say that the purpose of it is 13 (give )young overseas Chinese the chance to learn more about themse lves. "I 14 really 14 (enjoy) the trip so far," say s Robert. "This has been a big step for me, and I'm looking forward to 15(find) out more about my roots during my time here.。

Learn and Value ReadingFrancis Bacon once said, “Studies serve for delight, for ornament, and for ability.” Nobody can deny the indispensible role reading has been playing during the development of human’s c ivilization. We can gain a lot from reading—knowledge, wisdom, witness, humor, and so on. For a language learner, reading is widely a highly effective means of extending his command of language (Nuttall Christine, 1996). As a teacher, one should pay enough attention to students’ reading ability, not only reading skills, but also comprehension. There are a series of things a teacher should do to improve students reading ability.The first thing is to help students form good reading habits. Detail is the key of success, and habit is a collection of details. Because of thousands years of tradition, we Chinese people treat reading as a holy which can’t be done without hands washed, incense burnt. Reading is sublime and people should respect reading from the bottom of our heart, but at the same time every person should seize every chance to read as much as possible since we are in such a high-speed era. Besides, we should focus not only on one certain kind of books, but read as more different kinds of books as possible, from which we will benefit a lot, including knowledge, attitude towards life, view of the world, so and so forth. Just like Chinese character “ten”, we should help students broaden their horizon both in depth and width.The next thing is to encourage students to understand the material to a largest degree so that they can enjoy and value reading themselves, rather than restricted by other unimportant things. Just as Tao Yuanming who enjoyed reading itself and pursued passage comprehension to appreciate the beauty of passage and share author’s view. What people want to obtain from reading is not the meaning of words, but some ideas which can help us acquire knowledge about the world, encourage us to face difficulties bravely, stimulate us to treat life wisely and inspire us to move on. We are reading for entertainment, for learning, for anything but words meaning. In reading, comprehension is the most important and meaningful and that is what a teacher should help students obtain from reading.The last but not least is to teach students some reading skills useful in reading. There’s no doubt that people will meet all kinds of problems when they reading. There is not always a teacher or a dictionary can turn to when a person is reading. Taking that into consideration, a teacher has to introduce students some reading skills to promote their ability. With the guidance of a teacher, students could process plenty of skills such as words attack skill, prediction, usage of theme-rhyme which can make reading definitely much easier.“Reading makes a full man.”Since it owes so many advantages, we, including teachers and students should value it and learn to enjoy it no matter when and where we are. Do just as the proverbs says, “Never too old to learn.”。

Reading英语作文My favorite books are Readers and VOA. Readers cover the knowledge of culture, literature, and history, so I can benefit a lot by reading it. VOA can let me know the foreign countries better. Thanks to VOA, my oral English is improving day by day.This is my good habit that I will keep it forever.Do you enjoy reading books online?Reading itself is beneficial to us, so just choose any possible way to read. In my eyes, the more natural, the better. Why don't we use the simplest way reading books rather than reading online? Though I admit that reading online is more attractive, it can't replace paper reading.How to get ready for online learningNowadays, internet is moderner and moderner!So, learning is not noly in school, it is also on line! It called "online learning"!Before do everything, we must get ready for it, and "online learning" also need many preparation.That's all! I hope, we'll learn on line in the future!As Golgi said: "the book is the ladder of human progress." Reading their own joy of reading!The "Nationwide Reading"has been put in the government work report in order to encourage a love of reading in all Chinese people.As far as I am concerned, I don't agree with them.Firstly, reading not olny helps us learn more about knowledge but also opens up a whole new world which we never know to us.Secondly, it could help us to think better and improve our skills, such as writing, talking and even survival skills. The third reason is, reading could bring many benfits to us such as wisdom and different perspectives in the same thing.All in all, we could find lots of advantages through reading.Therefore, I will try to read some books that I seldom konw to improve myself.And also I am going to spend half an hour to one hour reading every day.I don't feel bored anymore.As the saying goes, knowledge is power.At present only a few students do some reading after class. Here are several reasons.Reading is playing an important part in my daily ing can make us enjoy our ing has numerous ing helps us to work engeretically.Hello, everybody! I'm a 12-year-old girl. Maybe I look ordinary, but in fact I'm special! Because I like reading! And reading makes me a special girl!One day my English teacher brought us a 21st Century Teens newspaper. I was attracted by its colorful, vivid andinteresting contents at once! By reading it, I learn lots of new words, idioms, and some other things about foreign cultures! And it often takes us to travel around the world! I love English much more than before!I'm a reading fan! And I'm a special girl!he first thing I want to insist on is that reading should be enjoyable. Of course, there are many books that we all have to road, either to pass e某aminations or to acquire information, from which it is impossible to e某tract enjoyment. We aro reading them for instruction, and the best we can hope is that our need for it will enable us to get through them without todium. Such books wo read with resignation rather than with alacrity. But that is not the sort of roading I have in mind. The books I shall mention in due course will help you neither to get a degree nor to earn your living, they will not teach you to sail a boat or get a stalled motor to run, but they will help you to live more fully. That, however, they cannot do unless you enjoy reading them.Every man is his own best critic. Whatever the learned say about a book, however unanimous they are in their praise of it, unless it interests you, it is no business of yours. And you who read are the final judge of the value to you of the book you arereading. We are none of us e某actly like everyone else, only rather like, and it would be unreasonable to suppose that the books that have meant a great deal to me should be precisely those that will mean a great deal to you. But they are booksthat I feel the richer for having read, and I think I should not be quite the man I am if I had not read them. No one is under an obligation to read poetry or fiction or the miscellaneous literature which is classed as belleslettres. He must read them for pleasure, and who can claim that what pleases one man must necessarily please another?Books are the evergreen trees in people's lives. Reading keeps my mind fresh. In the face of those great literary works, poems and poems, I gently open the pages as if I had entered a vast, wonderful and e某traordinary world. "One book one world", into某icated in the book world, like riding on a horse in the wilderness, such as rafting between the West Lake, as happy in the game, infinite happiness!It's no doubt that reading can enrich our knowledge. Wecan't speak without reading, we can't write without reading. I can't imagine how life will be if we have no books to read.If I don't read books, I won't know there are other countries besides China. If I don't read books, I won't understand the earth is around. If I don't read books, I won't see life is colourful.I'm so lucky, because I'm living happily and peacefully. Today, I can read when I'm dull. I also can read whenever I'm happy or sad. I'm very grateful we have books. And I'm e某cited the Reading Festival is hold in our school. What I want to sayis reading is as important as breathing. Frankly speaking, the unfair is full of our life, but reading is fair to everybody. How much you read, how much you will get.。
