impressive careers. By society‘s 22 , they seem to have it made.
On the surface, these people seem to be very lucky in life. As they left student life behind, many
had a 23 drink at their cheap but friendly local bar, shook hands with Longtime roommates,
and 24 out of small apartments into high buildings. They made reservations at
restaurants where the cost of a bottle of wine 25 a college year‘s monthly rent. They
replaced their beloved old car with expensive new sports cars.
The thing is, a number of them have 26 that despite their success, they aren‘t happy.

People often speak of trying a more satisfying path, and 32 the end the idea of leaving,
their jobs to work for something they 33 or finding a position that would give them more

something 36 in their lives , but it‘s 37 to step off the track.
In a society that tends to 38 everything in terms of dollars and cents, we learn form a

A
From the very beginning of school we make books and reading a constant source of possible
failure and public humiliation. When children are little we make them read aloud, before the teacher
and other children, so that we can be sure they ―know‖ all the words they are reading. This means
that when they don‘t know a word, they are going to make a mistake, right in front of everyone. After
having taught fifth-grade classes for four years, I decided to try at all costs to rid them of their fear
and dislike of books, and to get them to read oftener and more adventurously.
One day soon after school had started, I said to them, ―Now I‘m going to say something about

reading that you have probably never heard a teacher say before. I would like you to read a lot of
books this year, but I want you to read them only for pleasure. I am not going to ask you questions to
find out whether you understand the books or not. If you understand enough of a book to enjoy it and
want to go on reading it, that‘s enough for me. Also I‘m not going to ask you what words mean. ―
The children sat stunned and silent. Was this a teacher talking? One girl, who had just come to us
from a school where she had had a very hard time, looked at me steadily for a long time after I had
finished. Then, still looking at me, she said slowly and seriously, Mr Holt, do you really mean that?‖
I said just as seriously, ―I mean every word of it.
During the spring she really astonished me. One day, she was reading at her desk, From a
glimpse of the illustrations I thought I knew what the book was. I said to myself, ―It can‘t be,‖ and
went to take a closer look. Sure enough, she was reading Moby Dick , in edition with woodcuts. I
said, ―Don‘t you find parts of it rather heavy going?‖ She answered, Oh, sure, but I just skip over
those parts and go on to the next good part. ―
This is exactly what reading should be and in school so seldom is, an exciting, joyous adventure.
Find something, dive into it, take the good parts, skip the bad parts, get what you can out of it, go on
to something else. How different is our mean-spirited, picky insistence that every child get every last
little scrap of ―understanding‖ that can be dug out of a book.

Graph can be a very useful tool for conveying information especially numbers， percentages,
and other data . A graph gives the reader a picture to interpret . That can be a lot more pages and
pages and pages explaining the data .
Graphs can seem frightening, but reading a graph is a lot like reading a story . The graph has a
title ,a main idea ,and supporting details .You can use your active reading skills to analyze and
understand graphs just like any other text .
Most graphs have a few basic parts: a caption or introduction paragraph, a title , a legend or key,
and labeled axes. An active reader looks at each part of the graph before trying to interpret the data.
Captions will usually tell you where the data came from (for example, a scientific study of 400
African elephants from 1980 to 2005). Captions usually summarize the author's main point as well.
The title is very important. It tells you the main idea of the graph by stating what kind of information
is being shown. A legend, also called a key ,is a guide to the symbols and colors used in the graph.
Many graphs, including bar graphs and line graphs, have two axes that form a corner, Usually these
axes are the left side and the bottom of the graph .Each axis will always have a label. The label tells
you what each axis measures.

Bar Graphs
A bar graph has two axes and uses bars to show amounts. In Graph 1 ,we see that the x-axis
shows grades that students earned, and the y-axis shows how many[students earned each grade .You
can see that 6 students earned an A because the bar for A stretches up to 6 on the
vertical measurement. There is a lot of information we can get from a simple graph like this(See
Graph 1).


Grade Earned
Graph 1. Student Performance on Social Studies Quiz


Graph 2. The Pipiti's Spring Migration


Line Graphs
A line graph looks similar to a bar graph ,but instead of bars, it plots points and connects them
with a line .It has the Same parts as a bar graph – two labeled axes –and can be read the same

way .To read a line graph, it‘s important to focus on the points of intersection rather than the line
segments between the points, This type of graph is most commonly used to show how something
changes over time. Here is a graph that charts how far a bird flies during the first Five days of its
spring migration (See Graph 2).
The unit of measurement for the x-axis is days. The unit of measurement for the y-axis is
kilometers. Thus we can see that ,on the first day, the pipit flew 20 kilometers. The line segment goes
up between Day 1 and Day 2,which means that the bird flew farther on Day the line segment
angled dawn, as between Day 4 and Day 5,it would mean that the bird flew fewer kilometers than
the day before. This line graph is a quick, visual way to tell the reader about the bird‘s migration.
Pie Graphs
A typical pie graph looks like a circular pie. The circle is divided into sections, and each section
represents a fraction of the data. The graph is commonly used to show percentages; the whole pie
represents l00 percent, so each piece is a fraction of the whole.
A pie graph might include a legend，or it might use icons or labels within each slice. This pie
graph shows on month‘s expense (See Graph 3 ).
