When you are learning English, listening, speaking and writing are important, but reading can also be very helpful.When you read, you can not only learn some new words, but also you can learn how to use these English words.When you read, it gives you a good example for writing.
Good reading tips.
Try to read at the right level(水平).Read something that you can (more or less) understand.If you need to stop every three words to use a dictionary, it is not interesting.
Try to increase the number of your new words.If there are four or five new words on a page, write them in your notebook.But you don’t have to write them while you read.Instead, try to guess their meaning as you read: mark them with a pen.Then come back when you have finished reading to look them up in a dictionary and write them in your own vocabulary book.Then try to remember them.
Try to read regularly.For example, read for a short time once a day.Fifteen minutes every day is better than two hours every Sunday.Fix(固定)a time to read and keep to it.You could read for fifteen minutes when you go to bed, or when you get up or at lunchtime.
Read what interests you.Choose a book or a magazine about a subject that you like, because you are going to spend time and money reading it.So, choose an interesting book.You can also read newspapers.There are many English newspapers in China.For example, 21st Century Teens.It is easy enough for you to understand it.There is something interesting in it.

If someone says to you, “give me five”, don't give five yuan to him! It will make others laugh! The person isn't asking for your money, but your fingers.
In the U.S.A, “give me five” or “give me the high five” is a good gesture(手势). You can see it often in films or on TV. It means the slapping (拍打)of each other's right hands together. People do it when something happy happens. For example, if a student does well in exams or gets No. 1 in his school sports meet, he will give high fives to his friends to celebrate.
Who did this gesture first? Why did he do that? It may come from the old Roman (古罗马的) gesture of raising(举起)the right arm for the emperor(皇帝). This showed that the person raising his arm had nothing in his hand and he couldn't hurt the emperor.
