But I think I should read more books besides the texts. The more, 【小题1】 better. It can improve my language skills and also can help me to get good grades.

Before you start reading, ask 【小题2】(you) why you are reading this book. Most people read for two main 【小题3】(reason), pleasure or knowledge. Clearing about your reading purpose can not only help you choose the books you really need to read, but also remind you why reading the book is of great 【小题4】(important) to you, so you will decide 【小题5】(read) and finish the book faster.

No matter what you are reading, it is important to enjoy 【小题6】 you read. Your friends may tell you the books they are interested 【小题7】, but those books might not be the ones you enjoy. Whenever you realize that you aren’t enjoying the book you are reading, give it up.

It is true to read the books that 【小题8】(borrow) from libraries 【小题9】(fast) than those I buy. The reason is that I don’t need to return those books I buy. Having a reading goal 【小题10】(help) you work out how much reading you need to do in a week or even a day. Before you read each book, you should know what time you need to complete this book by.

For a book lover, stepping into a bookstore is always exciting, but a new bookstore in China makes the experience really 【小题1】 (amaze).

Located in the west of Chengdu in Sichuan Province, there is a bookstore that is just like a magical world. Upon entering, visitors can see C-shaped bookcases, 【小题2】 create a series of private spaces. In the center of the store, towering arches (拱门) take advantage of the full 【小题3】 (high) of the space.

It looks like the books 【小题4】 (spread) out from the floor to the ceiling. But actually the books placed on the highest levels are not real. The store already has 【小题5】 collection of over 80,000 books, so there’s actually no waste of space.

Visitors walking through the store will find areas designed 【小题6】 (serve) different purposes. The children’s reading area, for example, features panda posters, bamboo bookshelves and colorful cushions (坐垫). The panda pictures hanging on the bookshelves are like pandas 【小题7】 (climb) on high branches. The colorful cushions can provide comfort 【小题8】 children to sit on the ground and relax. All the 【小题9】 (element) of the design come together to give visitors an interesting experience.

In a word, it really 【小题10】 (present) the local famous man-made landscape, even though it is in an artistic way.

Physical books have advantages 【小题1】 seeing words with one’s own eyes can help to hold attention more tightly. It is also 【小题2】(easy) to find specific parts of the book again if the mind wanders while reading. However, audiobooks offer a different kind of experience, 【小题3】(allow) the listener to become fully immersed in the story and engage different parts of the brain. Listening to an audiobook has been shown to develop greater empathy, as listeners hear the emotion 【小题4】(convey) by the narrator. Inflection and intonation are more easily understood through hearing rather than reading. The intensity and imagery of the story can be heightened by listening to an audiobook, making the experience even more enjoyable.
