The more books you read, the better your life will be. If you don't believe me, please consider these five reasons to read more books.

● You will make your brain power better.

This shouldn't come as a shock, but studies suggest reading makes you smart. Unlike watching television, which requires no thought process, reading is an active learning experience that will keep your mind sharp.

● You will increase your chance of success.

The more books you read, the more knowledge you will have, the more ways and resources your brain will store, the more likely you will succeed.

● You will have things to talk about at parties.

Reading more books will enable you to say the sentence, "Did you know...?" more often, making it easier to start conversations with strangers.

● You will enlarge your vocabulary.

The more words you' re able to use, the better you will become at expressing your thoughts and feelings. I couldn't imagine how I would write articles like this if I didn't actively aim to enlarge my vocabulary, because using the same few words to express myself would get boring.

● You will enjoy a good night's sleep.

Your mobile phone or TV can make it difficult for you to get a good night's sleep, if you do so late at night. You would be wise to cut off all electronics at least an hour before bed, and replace that with a good book, which is a much better choice.

The books can change your life. I firmly believe that if it weren't for books, I wouldn't have achieved in my life; nor would I have the knowledge, imagination or creativity.

The more books you read, the better your life will be.

A man and his little son spent their summer vacation walking through the mountains far from their city. One day, the little boy slipped (滑) 20-30 meters down the side of the mountain. Finally he was able to catch onto a tree branch (枝干) and hold on.

“Help me!” he cried out.

“Help me!” a voice shouted back.

The boy was very surprised. “Who are you?” he shouted.

“Who are you?” the voice shouted back.

“You are a fool!” he said.

“You are a fool!” the voice came back.

At that moment, his father got to him. “Someone is talking to me but I can’t see who he is,” the boy said to his father.

“Son, that is called an echo (回音),” his father said. “But really, it’s called life.”

“You are a winner!” the father cried.

“You are a winner!” the voice answered.

“You are talented!” the father shouted.

Robots are smart. With their computer brains, they help people work in dangerous places or do difficult jobs. Some robots do regular jobs. Bobby, the robot mail carrier, brings mail to a large office building in Washington, D.C. He is one of 250 robot mail carriers in the United States. Mr Leachim, who weighs two hundred pounds and is six feet tall, has some advantages as a teacher. One is that he does not forget details. He knows each child's pets and hobbies. Mr Leachim does not make mistakes. Each child goes and tells him his or her name, then dials an identification(識(shí)別) number. His computer brain puts the child's voice and number together. He identifies the child with no mistake.

Another advantage is that Mr Leachim is flexible. If the children need more time to do their lessons they can move switches. In this way they can repeat Mr Leachim's lesson over and over again. When the children do a good job, he tells them something interesting about their hobbies. At the end of the lesson the children switch Mr Leachim off.

Once again, God seems to have put a homeless person in my path. Lately, I have regularly come into contact with people that I just can’t ignore .

His name is Mark and I was surprised to hear that he is only three years older than me. He looks so much older! He was on the counter, asking for money. I parked my car and plonked(砰地放下) myself down on the curb(路邊) to talk. People were driving by and looking at us, but I didn’t care.

He told me about his life. How much of his story I believe, I don’t know. He told me he was dying----that part I believe, for he could hardly walk and had trouble catching his breath.

I asked what I could do to help him. He said all he wanted was a slice of pizza. I gave him $3, the only cash I had . He said he wanted to go to get the food himself, but he was stopped from the shopping center for begging. I said I would get it for him and asked if he wanted something to drink .

Then he asked for a(n) ride to the trail in the woods where he had his tent. Usually I don’t give rides to strangers, but this was just up the street, and quite honestly he had no physical threat to me. When we parted, he held my hand for a long time and we just looked at each other wordlessly for a few moments.

At that time, he wasn’t a homeless man and I wasn’t a sufferer .We became just two souls making a human connection I don’t know if I will ever see him again, but I know I will never forget him. God bless you, Mark, and your beautiful blue eyes and gentle soul.

1.“ignore” in the first paragraph may mean ___________.

A. notice B. pay no attention to C. care for D. forget

2.Why did the writer agree to give Mark a free ride ?

A. Because he wanted to help the homeless person without any doubt.

B. Because he was willing to help anyone.

C. Because he thought Mark was not strong enough to harm him.

D. Because he thought Mark was gentle.

3.The passage shows what Mark was like through the use of ________.

A. description of his thoughts. B. description of his dialogue.

C. description of his looks and actions D. people around him
