For many people today, reading is no longer relaxation. To keep up their work they must read letters, reports, trade publications, interoffice communications, not to mention newspapers and magazines: a never-ending flood of words. In 1 a job or advancing in one, the ability to read and comprehend 2 can mean the difference between success and failure. Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are 3 readers. Most of us develop poor reading 4 at an early age, and never get over them. The main deficiency 5 in the actual stuff of language itself —words. Taken individually, words have little meaning until they are strung together into phrases, sentences and paragraphs. 6 , however, the untrained reader does not read groups of words. He laboriously reads one word at a time, often regressing(退回)to 7 words or passages. Regression, the tendency to look back over what you have just read, is a common bad habit in reading. Another habit which 8 down the speed of reading is vocalization —sounding each word either orally or mentally as one reads.To overcome these bad habits, some reading clinics use a device called an 9 , which moves a bar (or curtain) down the page at a predetermined(预先确定的)speed.The bar is set at a slightly faster rate 10 the reader finds comfortabl e, in order to “stretch” him. The accelerator forces the reader to read fast, 11 word-by-word reading, regression andsub-vocalization(默读)practically impossible. At first 12 is sacrificed for speed.But when you learn to read ideas and concepts, you will not only read faster, but your comprehension will improve. Many people have found 13 reading skill drastically improved after some training .14 Charlie Au, a business manager, for instance, his reading rate was a reasonably good 172 words a minute before the training, now it is an excellent 128 words a minute.

The subject of what separates art and design has been debated for a long time. Artists and designers both create visual works using a/an 1 knowledge background, but their reasons for doing so are 2 different. Some designers consider themselves artists, but few artists consider themselves 3 .So what exactly is the difference between art and design? Perhaps the most fundamental difference that we can all agree on is their 4 . Typically, the process of creating a work of art starts with nothing, a blank sheet of paper. A 5 of art is born from a view or value that the artist holds within himself or herself. They create the art to share that feeling with others, to 6the viewers to relate to it, learn from it or be 7 by it. The most renowned and successful art today is something that establishes the strongest 8 connection between the artist and their9 .By contrast, when a designer sets out to 10 a new piece, they almost always have a11 starting point, whether a message, an image, an idea or an action. The designer’s job isn’t to invent something 12 , but to communicate something that already exists, for a purpose. That purpose is almost always to motivate the audience to do something: buy a product, use a13 , visit a location, or learn certain information. The most 14 designs are those that most effectively 15 their message and motivate their consumers to carry out a task.▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█▉▊▋▌精诚凝聚 =^_^= 成就梦想▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█▉▊▋▌1.

Children model themselves largely on their parents. They do so mainly through identification. Ch ildren identify with(“把……和……联系起来”) a parent when they believe they have the qualities and feelings that are 1 of that parent. The things parents do and say — and the 2 they do and say to them—therefore strongly influence a child's 3 .However, parents must consistently behave like the type of 4 they want their child to become.A parent's actions 5 affect the self-image that a child forms through identification.

Dear Mike,
I’m writing to let you know that I won first prize in the English Talent Show yesterday afternoon. Before it was my turn I watched the others and got very nervous. But when I was on the stage, I thought of all your efforts to help me during the past few months and gradually calmed down. Although the question-and-answer section was the most challenging, I got through it quite smoothly by remembering all your suggestions. When the judge announced the result I was very excited but it was really a pity you were not there.
Please accept my warmest thanks. I look forward to your return to China.
Yours,
Li Hua

In the passage the writer uses the story of the award-winning farmer who shares his best corn seed with his neighbours to teach us that we all can benefit when we co-operate and share with each other.
It’s a really instructive story, which inspires me to think more. In our daily life, we face all kinds of difficulties. Everyone needs help and only those who are ready to help can get help from
others.
Take global and regional cooperation for example. As we know, countries are increasingly interdependent. When they work together to solve their problems the world becomes more stable. Trade and the economy improves and living standards for all increase. But if countries act selfishly, it will create distrust, poor economic and trade relations and may even lead to unrest and war, which hurts the people of all nations. If all the countries can cooperate with each other, draw on each other’s strengths and work together, the world will advance greatly and all the nations will share benefits and profit from balanced development.
Version 2
In the passage the writer uses the story of the award-winning farmer who shares his best corn seed with his neighbours to teach us that we all can benefit when we co-operate and share with each other.
It’s a really instructive story, which inspires me to think more. In our daily life, we face all kinds of difficulties. Everyone needs help and only those who are ready to help can get help from others.
Take for example the recent tragedy in Japan. The earthquake and tsunami have caused great damage to that country. Most serious is the damage to the nuclear power station that has caused radiation to leak into the atmosphere. If countries act selfishly and don’t help the Japanese, not only will the local people suffer, but the problems of radiation may spread to affect the rest of us. But if we all co-operate and help each other, then the problem can hopefully be solved, which will be of benefit not only to the Japanese people, but to the rest of the world as well.。
