Not long ago, I made up my mind to read a lot of books to get more knowledge. So I went to the library and 36 happily with several books. But after a few days, I felt impatient. The 37 of finishing all of them seemed impossible, because I always found it 38 to calm down to read a whole book. I didn’t know what to do with it. Then 39 one day I thought of "Why not make reading fun?" It gave me 40 again. Reading is a journey of spirit. Every time we read a book, we are actually talking41 the writer. I tried to put all
my effort into his or her books, 42 I could feel all of his or her happiness and suffering. Now books have become a part of my life.
