The holiday’s upon us. After months of study, you have some time to yourself. So, why not read a book? Well, some people will say, ‘Why trouble with books? We have the Internet and 16 media that offer a lot more 17 (colour) programs. Books are history!”
But don’t be fooled. There’s still a lot to be said for reading and reading as widely as possible.
One clear reason is that a well-chosen book is a wonderful collection 18 words and expressions, so long as you have a good dictionary, of course. Believe me, it’s far easier to get new English words and expressions from a book or article 19 it is from the TV or the Internet.
But an even more important point is 20 books give you something that modern media simply can not: The webpage is always full of pictures and the text is often designed to make it as easy to read as possible.
Though “easy” may be welcome, 21 (luck) it’s of little use for any long-time development of reading skills and the general language level. For that, there’s still no substitute(替代品) for a book.
But perhaps the best single reason is that simply 22 (choose) what you read and doing it by yourself 23 (mean) that it’s something you do by and for yourself. You can choose what you want to read. It’s hard work, 24 while you are reading, you’ll find that what once 25 (seem) like a duty is now a pleasure.

High School In America
After middle school comes high school, which includes grades 9 through 12. Students are required to take certain subjects like English, social studies, math, science, and physical education. In addition, they choose among elective subjects (选修课程) to complete their high school education. Electives include subjects in technology, music, art, and foreign languages.
Each student in the school has their own locker for books and personal items. This convenience saves students from carrying textbooks, and allows students a small space they can decorate with posters and favorite objects.
Cheating in any form is strictly prohibited in American schools. And in fact, high school students usually don’t cheat. A student caught cheating or copying from another student faces severe punishment.
Each school holds certain yearly activities, such as homecoming (返校节), prom night (舞会), holiday celebrations, etc.
Many high school students have part-time jobs by the age of 15 or 16, some even earlier. Their first jobs are often babysitting or cutting laws, but later they will likely get a job at a fast-food restaurant, video store, or clothing shop.

People talk about the problems with diet and dieting, and use them as excuses for ending, or for not beginning a weight-loss plan. The main problems are that most people don’t know how the body works or they are unwilling to change th
eir lifestyles. When correctly solved, these problems will disappear and will finally be a regular part of your lifestyle.
One problem with diet and dieting is that people complain of feeling hungry. In fact, slimming doesn’t mean eating less. It just means eating differently. You should eat more foods rich in fiber(纤维) instead of foods high in fat. It is possible to be slim without ever feeling hungry. Eating more nutrient-rich (营养丰富的) foods also means you feel less hungry because your body is getting what it needs.
Another difficulty is the desire (欲望). Most people complain that they cannot eat their favorite foods based on weight-loss plans, which causes them to eat too much “ bad” foods. A slimming plan shouldn’t mean you can just eat “ bad” foods. While there are some foods that you should limit, there is no harm in treating yourself in small amounts now and then. Eating one chocolate bar once in a while is not going to end a healthy eating plan.
