We send our children to school to prepare them for the time when they will be big and will have to work for themselves.They learn their own language so that they will be able to tell others clearly what they want and what they know,and understand what others tell them.They learn foreign languages in order to be able to understand the people from other countries and make themselves understood.They learn history to know something about human beings they meet every day.What they learn at school is,of course,quite useful,but is that the only reason(原因) why they go to school?

No.There is more in education than just learning facts.We go to school,above all,to learn how to learn,so that when we have left school,we can continue to learn.A man who really knows how to learn will always be successful,because whenever he has to do something new,he will quickly teach himself how to do it in the best way.The uneducated person,on the other hand,is either unable to do something new,or does it badly.So the purpose(目的)of school is not just to teach the students these useful subjects but teach the way to learn.

  You will have a lot of reading to do in this grade this year.You can do more of it in less time if you learn to read rapidly.

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

  Do you still have any of these bad habits? Check yourself by answering “yes” or “no” to these questions.

  (1)Do you move your lips(嘴唇)when reading silently?

  (2)Do you point to words with your finger as you read?

  (3)Do you move your head from side to side as you read?

  If you read no more than one or two three words at a time, you need to work very hard in learning to take in(吸收)more words at each glance(一瞥)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 se of fast reading is to take in whole groups of words at each glance.Read in thought groups and force(迫使)your eyes along the lines of words at fast as you can make them go.Anyone who practices doing these things will be able to read faster.

Taiwan, the biggest island of China. It is to the east of Fujian Province.

island. I found it is as beautiful as many other places of our country. And there are a lot of places of interest.
My favourite place was the Sun and Moon Lake. You may ask why people call it so. If you fly high up over the
lake and look down around from your plane, you will find the answer yourself. In the middle of this lake,
there's a small island. People call it Pearl(珍珠) Island because it looks like a pearl. On one side of Pearl Island
the lake looks like a sun, and on the other side it looks like a moon. That's why people call the lake the Sun and Moon Lake.
     There are many mountains around this lake. One of the nearest is the Ali Mountain. We stayed there for
three days. We also had a dance party with Gaoshan People. On our first day there we went to the mountain
and watched the sun going down slowly in the west. On our last day we got up early and saw a very beautiful
sunrise. Taiwan is a very beautiful place to visit.
