     If you want to become a better reader, what should you know about speed of reading?
     Some people read very rapidly (很快地), while others read very slowly. But which one is better?
     The rapid reader may be a good reader when he reads a storybook for fun. But he may not be able to
slow down enough to read directions (說明) carefully. He may read so rapidly that he does not take time to
understand fully the ideas and information which are important to remember.
     The slow reader may be a good reader when he reads directions for making something. But he may
spend too much time in reading a simple story which is meant to be enjoyed but is not important enough to
be remembered.
     So, you see, either a rapid reader or a slow reader is not really a good one. If you wish to become a
better reader, here are four important things to remember about speed of reading.
     1. Knowing why you are reading will often help you to know whether to read rapidly or slowly.
     2. Some things should be read slowly throughout. Examples are directions for making or doing something,
science and history books, and Maths problems. You must read such things slowly or remember each
important step and understand each important idea.
     3. Some things should be read rapidly throughout. Examples are simple stories for enjoyment, letters
from friends and bits of news from hometown papers.
     4. In some of your reading, you must change your speed from fast to slow and slow to fast, as you go
along. You will need to read certain (某些) pages rapidly and then slow down and do more careful reading
when you come to important ideas.
1. What should be read rapidly?
A. Directions for making something.
B. Maths problems.
C. Science and history books.
D. Storybooks, newspapers, personal letters, etc.
2. What is the important thing you should keep in mind about speed of reading?
A. To read as fast as you can.
B. To fit your reading speed to your needs.
C. To read as slowly as possible.
D. To keep your reading at a certain speed.
3. Which title best gives the main idea of the passage?
A. Something about Careful Reading.
B. Be a Rapid Reader.
C. How to Read?
D. How to Be a Slow Reader?

     If someone asked you to draw a picture of a robot, how would it look?  Like a person? That's how we
often picture robots in our minds. But real robots look many different ways.
     Some robots have TV cameras for eyes. Some have special parts that help them touch. Many have
computer brains. How robots look depends on the job they have to do. Some can even have their parts
changed,so they can do different jobs.
     Some robots look like huge insects. America sent some robots to Mars (火星) in 1976. They moved on
the surface and did experiments there.
     Robots can do boring jobs. They can do dangerous jobs with fast-moving machine. They can do dirty
jobs, such as painting things with oil colours. They can do jobs no person could do, such as picking up hot
metal. Robots don't get bored. They don't get tired. They don't mind getting dirty.
     Some people are worried because they think robots will take jobs away from people. But that doesn't have
to happen. After all, people are able to control robots. People must remember that robots are good at some
things and humans are good at others.
     Some robots often tell people they don't have to be afraid of robots. These robots help people understand
that robots can do boring, dangerous and dirty jobs and people can do better ones.
