way, or you waste either the time or the money. The following are the ways of studying.
The best time for reading is morning, because in the morning, the air is fresh and the mind is clear. For
that reason, we can get good result (结果).
In studying we must have patience (耐心). If we have not known a text well, we must read it again.
We should not read the next one till we have learned the first one.
When we are studying, we must put our hearts into the book, or we can get nothing from the book
while we are reading.
We must always ask "why". If it is not well understood, write it down and ask our teachers or our
parents, or friends. In any possible way, we must know it completely and what we"ve learned can be
used well and made better.
Though there are many ways for studying, yet the above mentioned (提到的) will be quite enough if
we can keep them in heart and do so.

between December and April every year. In Turkey, there is a cave hotel with a television, furniture, and
a bathroom in each room. And in Bolivia (玻利维亚-南美洲西部国家), there is the Salt Palace Hotel.
Thousands of years ago, the area around the Salt Palace Hotel was a large lake. But over time, all the
water disappeared. Today, the area has only two small lakes and two salt deserts.
Uyuni salt desert
The larger of the two deserts, the Uyuni, is 12,000 square kilometres. During the day, the desert is
bright white because of the salt. There are no roads across the Uyuni desert, so local people must show
guests the way to the hotel.
In the early 1990s, a man named Juan Quesada built the hotel. He cut big blocks of salt from the desert
and used the blocks to build it. Everything in the hotel is made out of salt: the walls, the roof (屋顶), the
tables, the chairs, the beds, and the hotel"s bar.
The sun heats (使变热) the walls and roof during the day. At night the desert is very cold, but the
rooms stay warm. The hotel has twelve rooms. A single room costs $40 a night, and a double room costs
$60.
A sign on the hotel"s wall tells guests, " Please don"t lick (舔) the walls."
(注: Uyuni is a town in the south of Bolivia.)
B. The price of the rooms.
C. The guests that stay there.
D. What it is made of.
B. It is white during the day.
C. There are several roads to the hotel.
D. It is more than 10,000 square kilometers.
B. the ground
C. Turkey
D. the walls of the hotel
B. the desert air
C. the sun
D. the furniture

| Listening is also important just like reading. Although it"s a bit more difficult, it helps you improve your pronunciation and conversational skills. When you learn a foreign language, you should start to listen as soon as you can. This way you will get familiar with the sounds of the language. Learning pronunciation will be much easier for you. It"s a good idea to listen again and again to the same content (内容). Choose something interesting and listen to it lots of times. While listening, try to remember useful sentences, or even some passages. Then practice saying them for memory, imitating (模仿) the speaker"s pronunciation. After a while, you will notice that words and phrases from the recording become a part of you. You will start using them in your own sentences. Try to do some listening every day. The best way would be to have an MP3 player. Then you can listen when you go to school or go for a walk. Remember to choose something you can understand and you like. Make sure the voice of the speaker is pleasant. This way you will enjoy listening and look forward to doing it. |

| It"s easy to make your own Internet page. The easiest way is to use a special program called a "web editor". You can find these programs on the Internet. First think about some things to put on your Internet page by looking at other people"s pages. You need to put your Internet page on a bigger computer called a "host" which stores the pages so that other people can see them. These computers are owned by special Internet companies. Our program may be able to help you find a host computer which you can use for free, but some companies will charge money for this. To make your Internet page, start up the program and write some text in the window, then use the signs you can see on the computer to put in pictures and make the text larger or smaller, and change the way your page looks. You can also put photos on your Internet page. First, you need to put the photo in your computer, then use your mouse to move the photo to the place where you want it. Choose the correct sign for putting photos onto the page, then find the name of your photo in your computer. When you"ve found it, choose that one with your mouse and put your photo on your Internet page. You can also put signs on your Internet page to join it to other people"s pages. Visitors to your page can follow these signs to find out more about a subject. For example, if your page includes some information about Jackie Chen, you could put on a sign that takes you to the page for his fan club. When you have completed your Internet page, you can put it on the Internet. After you put your page on the Internet, anyone will be able to see it. |
