Language and literacy（文学）are among mankind’s greatest inventions. Our continued relationship with language gives shape and meaning to our lives. Here are four ways to become a better reader._____________
Many readers feel that they read too slowly, but the truth is that the faster you read, the less likely you are to understand fully what you’re reading. The best readers can slow down when needed, especially if confusing ideas or unknown words are grouped closely together—and always have a dictionary at hand._____________
When humans first began reading written words, it was unusual to read in silence. Reading out loud is one of the best ways to improve your reading ability. You may feel silly reading to your cat (or to no one at all), but gradually you will find yourself getting used to it and with better vocal expression._____________.
Can you remember the first piece of writing that introduced you to another world? One of the greatest moments in a young fluent reader’s life is learning to enter into the lives of imagined heroes and heroines. As you read, let the language guide your pace, give pause to important gestures and dialogue, and allow striking ideas to simmer(慢慢沉淀). In no time, you’ll be appreciating novels like fine wine.__________.
Writing and reading go hand-in-hand: how and what you read affects how and what you write and the best readers often make the best writers. But while much can be learned from close, repeated readings, there are many secret pleasures to language that can only be experienced through the practice of writing. Try writing every day for a month; you will never read the same again.
| A．Write |
| B．Feel It |
| C．Read Aloud |
| D．Take It Slow |
E. Read Fast

Here are 7 signs that can be taken as warning and could help avert(避免) a catastrophic situation:
1.The most common warning sign of a heart attack is the feeling of discomfort or heaviness in the chest. This feeling could also be more of a burning sensation. Any of these symptoms should not be taken lightly, and if it occurs more than once, you need to rush to your doctor. If another person is complaining of the problem, chances are they have experienced the feeling before and are only expressing it now. So, rush them to the nearest doctor or hospital immediately for a check-up.
2. Shortness of Breath
If your breathing gets heavy and the breath falls short even after a short walk, climb or other form of movement or exercise, Even if this condition is not accompanied with chest discomfort, it should be taken as a warning sign.
3. Sweating
Whilst sweating is inevitable in the scorching(灼热的) heat of May and June, excessive sweating even in cool conditions is uncalled for.
4. Nausea(恶心)

It could also display itself via excessive stress, fatigue after short spans of movement or exercise, or a feeling of weakness despite eating and sleeping well.

If certain parts of your body begin to stop responding, The affected parts may be the shoulders, arms or back of the neck.
7. Slurring(含糊不清) while Speaking
