【题目】“Do you like doing things for people?”I asked a friend.
“Yes,most of the time,”she replied.
“Most of the time?”
“Well,I love to do things that are unexpected. I like to do little things most people wouldn't think about doing,”she said.
“But why did you say most of the time?”
“Well,sometimes after doing those little things people take advantage of you.I mean,they expect you to do it again.They ask you to do it.That's when I don't like it.”
It was odd that I had this conversation.This just happened to me.I love to do little things.I will pay for a meal card for the people in the office every time we have a meeting there.Not a big thing.It's a little thing.$5.30 will pay for almost five lunches.Hey,big spender!
I also bought a bag of animal crackers for a friend at work.She was having a tough day and not very happy at all.I drove down to the Wal-Mart and picked up a huge bag for under $2.00.Her smile was worth it.
But one week she said,“Bob,we ran out of crackers.We love them so much.” I didn't want to do it.I smiled and she persisted. I finally admitted,“It's different when I do it because I want to,but now you are trying to make me go to get them.It's not the same.”But I bought it for her.
Unfortunately,a big fire in my family took away all the possessions we had. I didn't know what to do and how to do it.What happened to me then surprised me most.I once had my bike repaired,but the repairman said “no charge”on hearing my sufferings.A stranger called James Kennedy read some pieces I'd written about our sufferings for Slate,the online magazine,and wanted to give us a new house across the lake from New Orleans.I refused but I felt moved. Another poet at the University of Florida also wanted to let his house to me free of charge while he was on holiday.My mates gave us more money for us to rebuild my home.When you do something kind for others,do you always get rewarded? Yes,but not in the way you might expect.

【题目】What is the purpose of reading or studying? If you can't remember what you read or study, it will be a waste of time. 【1】 One useful aid that does help you remember what you study is to have a specific purpose or reason for reading.
Why does a clerk in a store go away when your reply to her offer to help is, "No, thank you, I'm just looking."? Both you and she know that if you aren't sure what you want, you are not likely to find it. But suppose you say instead, "Yes, thank you. I want a pair of sun glasses." She says, "Right this way, please.” It’s quite the same with your studying. If you choose a book, "just looking" for nothing in particular, you are likely to get just that—nothing. 【2】 Your reasons will vary; they will include reading or studying "to find out more about", "to understand the reasons for" and "to find out how".
【3】 Before you start to study, you say to yourself something like this, "I want to know why Stephen Vincent Benet happened to write about America".Because you know why you are reading or studying, you relate the information to your purpose and remember it better.
Reading is not one single activity. 【4】 As you read, you take in ideas rapidly and accurately. But at the same time you express your own ideas to yourself as you react to what you read. You have a kind of mental conversation with the author.
This additional process of thinking about what you read includes evaluating it, relating it to what you already know, and using it for your own purposes. 【5】 One part of critical reading, as you have discovered, is distinguishing between facts and opinions. Facts can be checked by evidence. Opinions are one's own personal reactions.Another part of critical reading is judging sources. Still another part is drawing accurate inferences.
A. This is an effective studying way.
B. In other words, a good reader is a critical reader.
C. You remember better when you know what you’re reading.
D. At least two important processes go on at the same time.
E. It is important for students to have a positive attitude to their study.
F. But if you do know what you want, you are almost sure to get it.
G. Perhaps you have already discovered some good ways to keep yourself from forgetting
