Despite being【小题1】promising sports journalist, Mitch feels there is something missing from his life. This all changes when he is reunited with his favourite professor, Morrie. On discovering that Morrie【小题2】(weaken) by a severe illness, Mitch starts visiting him at his house on Tuesdays. The【小题3】(week) conversations between them result in a series of lessons on the meaning of life and how best to live it. 

The following are some of people’s reviews of the book Tuesdays with Morrie.

Arthur K: Indeed, it’s a pleasant surprise【小题4】(find) this book is filled with joy and hope. Morrie’s bravery towards the end of his life is inspirational and has made me value my own life more. 【小题5】Morrie says, “Once you learn how to die, you learn how to live.” 

Amy Wang: While living, we tend to get distracted by unimportant things, such as gathering material【小题6】(possession). It’s up to us to find out【小题7】is important in our lives and establish our own values.【小题8】(read) this book made me feel as if I’d been woken up from a long sleep and finally opened my eyes to the world! 

Marty: Receiving widespread【小题9】(recognize), this book does teach me a lesson or two. 

Vivian:One of the lessons of the book is to keep in touch【小题10】the good people we meet as we go through life.

World Book Day was created on April 23rd, 1995, by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization(UNESCO) .The connection between that date and books, however, was made【小题1】Spain in 1923, as it is the anniversary(周年纪念日) of the【小题2】(die) of William Shakespeare and Inca Garcilaso de la Vega, famous Spanish Chronicler.

There were a few 【小题3】(idea) for the day of the year that World Book Day should be held.【小题4】(original), Vicente Clavel Andres, a Valencian writer, suggested that the day should be on a day【小题5】 honored the author Miguel de Cervantes. This would be either his birthday, October 7, or the date when he passed away, April 23.The【小题6】(choose) date is the latter one because it was also the date when William Shakespeare died and when Inca Garcilaso de la Vega died too .In fact, several other well-known authors have also died on April 23—perhaps authors should be wary(留神的) of this date!

In some countries, World Book Day actually【小题7】(take) place on other days of the year, despite the fact that the intentional event was created by UNESCO. For example, Sweden, the United Kingdom, and Ireland all celebrate【小题8】(they) own World Book Day events on 【小题9】different day. However, the international day【小题10】(hold) on the same day each year since it began in 1995.

Do you have a library in your classroom? If you consider a classroom library 【小题1】 a welcoming space where students can read quietly or browse(浏览) through a rich 【小题2】 (collect) of texts, you are only partly correct. It is, in the broadest sense, the backbone of many classroom 【小题3】 (activity).

Generally a classroom library 【小题4】 (equip) with books and other media materials to support students’ daily learning. This provides a place for teachers to teach and students to learn. An effectively 【小题5】 (design) classroom library also helps students locate books 【小题6】 (easy) and gives them room to enjoy themselves.

Further an in-class library offers a setting for students 【小题7】 (read) aloud and have a discussion providing a perfect opportunity for the teacher to give 【小题8】 informal assessment of each student’s reading.

The classroom library is a gathering place 【小题9】 students and teachers can express their lives as readers. Here, reading is 【小题10】 exciting and fascinating that students can’t wait to get to it.
