How words came into being is unknown.All we assume is that some early men invented cortain sounds,in one way or another,to express thoughts and feelings,actions and things,so that they could talk with each other.Later they agreed upon certain signs,called letters,which could be put together to show those sounds,and which could be written down.Those sounds,whether spoken or written in letters,are called words.
The power of words,then,lies in their associations-the things they bring up to our minds.Words become filled with meaning for us by experience;and the longer we live,the more certain words bring back to us the happy and sad events of our past;and the more we read and learn,the more the number of words that mean something to us increases.
Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which have powerful effects on our minds and feelings.This clever use of words is what we call literary style.Above all,the real poet is a master of words.He can express his meaning in words which sing like music,and which by their position and association can move men to tears.We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use then correctly,or they will make our speech silly and common.

Encouraging early reading skills can build a path to a lifelong love of reading and can help your child get a head start in school. While reading to your child is still the most important thing you can do to build reading skills, there are many techniques that can help.
Make reading fun. Play games with your child as you read. Many traditional children's games can be adapted to encourage reading skills.
While reading or during play, tell your child, "I spy with my little eye, something that begins with the letter "b". Help the child find something on the page or in the room that begins with that letter. For example, “I see a barn.” This can also be used to teach beginning letter sounds.Ｉspy with my little eye something that begins with the sound “s”. Help the child find a word that begins with the "s" sound.
In this variation on the popular game, instruct the child that, "Simon says, point to something that starts with the letter "n". The child can then find an object in the room or a body part, such as the nose, that starts with the letter presented. This can also be used to teach beginning sounds.
Make a game out of rhyming (押韵) words by making up silly words to rhyme with the child's name or favorite toys. This sets the stage for rhyming real words by showing the child the similarities of sounds. As the child masters making up the words, begin rhyming real words to one another.
Tips to raise a successful reader:
Put books in places where the child plays. If books are easily accessible, children are more likely to pick them up.
Let children "read to you" by looking at pictures. Making up stories to go along with illustrations helps children discover how words relate to pictures.
Take books along on trips or even short visits to the doctor's office or grocery store.
Have children help you shop. Reading grocery lists and looking for specific items helps build vocabulary.
1. Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. A good reading habit can benefit your child at school.
B. Computer games help children develop reading skills.
C. You should be careful as for what books to read.
D. Children enjoy reading poems to their parents.
2.What does the underlined word “accessible” most probably mean?
A. available B. beneficial C. readable D. worthwhile
3.What can we conclude from the text?
A. The most important thing is to make reading funny.
B. Children have a preference for stories with pictures.
C. Rhyming games should begin only with real words.
D. Children tend to read more if books are at hand.
4.Which of the following can be the best title of the text?
A. Interest is the best teacher
B. Practice makes perfect
C. Good methods are half done
D. Failure teaches success
5.What are the intended readers of the text?

Teachers and parents usually call attention to the pictures when they read storybooks to pre-school children. But a new study suggests that calling attention to the words and letters on the page may lead to better readers.
The two-year study compared children who were read in this way in class with children who were not. Those whose teachers most often discussed the print showed clearly higher skills in reading, spelling and understanding. These results were found one year and even two years later.
Shayne Piasta, an assistant professor of teaching and learning at Ohio State University, was an author of the study. She says most pre-school teachers would find this method manageable and would need only a small change in the way they teach. They already read story-books in class. The only difference would be increased attention to the printed text. “If you get children to pay attention to letters and words, it makes sense that they will do better at word recognition and spelling.” But she says research suggests that very few parents and teachers do this in a systematic way.
More than 300 children aged four and five were observed in classrooms. They came from poor families and were below average in their language skills. For thirty weeks, the children took part in a program called Project STAR--- Sit Together and Read. The project is based at Ohio State. It tests the short-term and long-term results of reading regularly to pre-school children in their classrooms.
There are different ways that adults can talk to children about print. They can point to a letter and discuss it, and even trace the shape with a finger. They can point out a word and discuss the meaning of the print or how the words tell the story. And they can talk about the organization of the print--- for instance, showing how words are written left to right in English.
1. What do we know about the ways pre-school children are usually taught?
A. More attention is paid to the pictures ,with words and letters being ignored.
B. Preference is given to the shape of letters and the organization of the print.
C. The focus of the teaching is on bringing them up to be good readers.
D. Equal attention is paid to the texts and the pictures.
2.What does Shayne Piasta suggest pre-school teachers should do in class?
A. Teach children how to draw pictures to get an idea of what they mean.
B. Change the way they teach and pay more attention to words and letters.
C. Adopt different methods according to the students’ difference in reading skills.
D. Read storybooks to children rather than explain the meaning of the pictures.
3. Which of the following is TRUE about the study on language skills of pre-school children?
A. Many teachers want to change their way of teaching pre-school children.
B. Attention on the pictures has made the children uninterested in reading.
C. Project STAR aims to research into the results of reading books to pre-school children in the classroom.
D. Teachers are often prevented from taking different approaches to language teaching.
4.Which section of a magazine does the passage probably come from?
A. Fashion. B. Economy . C. Entertainment. D. Education.
