Perhaps you have been told about some habits which keep a person from reading fast and have been strongly asked to break those habits

27、 which you might have. Do you still have any of these bad habits? Check yourself by answering “yes” of “no” to these questions.(1) Do you move your lips when reading silently?(2) Do you point to words with your finer as you read?(3) Do you move your head from side to side as you read?(4) Do you read

28、 one word at a time?If you answer “yes” to any of these questions, start at once to break the habit. If you move your lips, hold your fingers over them, or hold a piece of paper between your lips while you are reading. Then if your lips move, you will know it and can stop them.If you point to words,

29、 hold the two sides of your book, one side with your left hand, the other side with your right hand. Then you wont have a free finger to use in pointing while reading. If you move your head, place your chin in one hand and hold your head still. If you read no more than one or two or three words at a

30、 time, you need to work very hard in learning to take in more words at each glance as your eyes travel across the lines of words. Even if you do rather fast now, you can learn to read even faster. As you probably have been told, the secret of fast reading is to take in whole groups of words at each

31、glance. Read in thought groups and force your eyes along the lines of words as fast as you can make them go. Anyone who practices doing these things will be able to read faster.56 If you learn to read fast, _.A. you can read more in less time B. you can write fasterC. you can understand better D. yo

32、u can read less in more time57 You must _ those habits that we are talking about in this reading.A. remember B. have C. get rid of D. keep58 This reading is mainly about _.

44、r he returned the wallet.D Old age may not sound exciting. But recent findings offer good news for older people and for people worried about getting older.Researchers found that people become happier and experience less worry after they reach the age of fifty. In fact, they say by the age of eighty-

45、five, people are happier with their life than they were when they were eighteen years old. The findings came from a survey of more than three hundred forty thousand adults in the United States. The Gallup Organization questioned them by telephone in two thousand eight. At that time, the people were

46、between the ages of eighteen and eighty-five.The researchers asked questions about emotions like happiness, sadness and worry. They also asked about mental or emotional stress. Arthur Stone at Stony Brook University in New York led the study. His team found that levels of stress were highest among a

47、dults between the ages of twenty-two and twenty-five.The findings showed that stress levels dropped sharply after people reached their fifties. Happiness was highest among the youngest adults and those in their early seventies. The people least likely to report feeling negative emotions were those i

48、n their seventies and eighties.The study also showed that men and women have similar emotional patterns as they grow older. However, women at all ages reported more sadness, stress and worry than men. Researchers say they do not know why happiness increases as people get older. One theory is that, a

49、s people grow older, they grow more thankful for what they have and have better control of their emotions.

If you look at the names on shop windows, you will see that Americans come from many different lands. Some pe

54、ople think that these people, who once were strangers to the United States, have lost the customs and cultures of their original countries and have become “American”. The idea is really not true.
