He met her at a party.She was so pretty that many guys were chasing after her, he was so ordinary (普通的) and she never paid any attention to him. At the end of the party, he invited her to have coffee with him. She was surprised but in order not to be rude, she agreed.

They sat in a nice coffee shop, he was too nervous to say anything, and she felt uncomfortable, too. Suddenly he asked the waiter, “Would you please give me some salt? I’d like to put it in my coffee.” Everybody looked at him. It was so strange! His face turned red but still, he put the salt in his coffee and drank it. She asked him in surprise, “Why do you have this hobby?” He replied, “When I was a little boy, I lived near the sea, I liked playing in the sea, I could feel the taste of the sea, just like the taste of the salty coffee. Now every time I have the salty coffee, I always think of my childhood, my hometown and my parents who are still living there.” While saying that tears filled his eyes.She was deeply touched. A man who is homesick must love his home and cares about his family. Then she also started to talk about her faraway hometown, her childhood, and her family.

That was a really nice talk, also a beautiful beginning of their love. They continued to date(約會). She found that actually he was a man who met all her demands (需求). He is kind, warm and careful. Thanks to his salty coffee! In 1970, they got married. And every time she made coffee for him, she put some salt in the coffee, as she knew that was the way he liked it. After 40 years, he passed away (去世) and left her a letter: “My dearest, please forgive my whole life’s lie. Remember the first time we met? I was so nervous at that time. In fact, I wanted some sugar, but said salt. It was hard for me to change so I just went ahead. I didn’t like the salty coffee then, what a strange bad taste! But I am glad to have the salty coffee for my whole life, for it was prepared by you.”

Reading is a good habit, but the problem is, there’s too much to read these days, and too little time to read every word of it. There are hundreds of skills to help you read more in less time. Here are two skills that I think are very good.

Preview — if it’s long and hard. Previewing is very useful for getting a general idea of heavy reading like long magazine articles and science reports.

Here is how to preview.

●Read the first two paragraphs and the last two paragraphs carefully.

●Then read only the first sentence of the other paragraphs.

Previewing doesn’t give you all the details. It tells you not to spend time on things you don’t really want or need to read.

Skim — if it’s short and simple. Skimming is a good way to get a general idea of light reading, like popular magazines or the sports of your daily paper.

Here’s how to skim.

●Get your eyes to move fast. Sweep them across each line.

●Pick up only a few key words in each line.

Everybody skims differently. You and I may not pick up the same words when we skim the same piece, but perhaps we’ll get the same idea of what it’s all about.

1.What does the underlined word “preview” mean in Chinese?

A. 精讀 B. 默讀 C. 朗讀 D. 略讀

2.What should we do when we read a science report?

A. Read the first two paragraphs and the last two paragraphs carefully.

B. Spend a lot of time reading the details.

C. Read the first and the last sentences of each paragraph.

D. Pick up only a few key words in each line.

3.What should we NOT do when we read the news about sports events in a daily paper according to the passage?

A. Get our eyes to move fast.

B. Read the last two paragraphs carefully.

C. Sweep our eyes across each line.

D. Pick up only a few key words in each line.

4.What is the best title for this passage?

A. Why we should read B. What to read

C. When to read D. How to read faster
