If you are writing or studying, it makes much difference where the light comes from. People use 46 and pens every day. They have to be very careful about the way of the light because the light shines on their work.
Every 47 gets its light either from daylight 48 the window 49 from the lamps or electricity, 50 no matter what kind of light it is, the way it shines towards our books or work is very important to the eyes.
Take a book and sit with your 51 toward the window, and try to read. Your shadow(影子) falls all over the page and makes it 52 for your eyes as if you were in a 53 room.
Now turn around and face the window. The page is 54 shadow again, while the bright light is in your eyes.
Try sitting with your 55 side toward the window. This is very good for 56 , but if you were writing, the shadow 57 fall across the page and bother you 58 .
There is another way – sit 59 your left side to the window. Now everything is perfect for writing as well.
Whatever kind of light is in the room, the rule about the right way to sit is 60 the same.

Miss Wu is a young teacher of English in China. She loves teaching very much. One day when she was giving an English lesson, she found the headmaster sitting at the back of the classroom. After class, the headmaster told her that he came to her class to find out how much English and how much Chinese she was using. The result was about half English and half Chinese. She was using Chinese when she gave instructions(说明、指令) to her students and when she wanted to get feedback(反馈)from her students. The headmaster told her that she should use more English in her class.
Miss Wu made a plan like this: firstly, talk with an Englishman every Sunday for two hours to learn more English expressions(表达); secondly, write some English expressions on cards. These cards not only remind her to use English in class, but also help her remember some expressions; thirdly, have a five-minute talk in English with students before class.

A bag is useful and the word "bag" is useful, too. Here is an interesting phrase, "to let the cat out of the bag". In meaning it is the same as "to tell the secret". And there is an old interesting story about it.
Long ago, when farmers wanted to sell chickens at the market, they would usually just throw the chickens in cloth (布) bags. But cats were cheaper than chickens at that time, so many farmers would put cats into the cloth bags but not chickens. One day, a woman asked a man for a chicken. The man gave her a cloth bag in which there was a cat.When the man opened the cloth bag, a big black cat ran out. Not a chicken! The man's secret was out and everyone knew it.
Now when we say someone gives away a secret, we say "He lets the cat out of the bag". And that is the story where the interesting phrase came from.
