Do you ever run out of great books to read? So what should I read next? Is fast-paced crime fiction your thing?
Try the new Patricia Cornwell book, Scarpetta （Putnam）. She is such an able writer and handles complex forensic（法庭的） intelligence with ease. You need to be prepared, though, for the world you're entering—this isn't for the faint of heart, let's say.
If peace is more your thing, try Mary Pipher's wonderful new book, Seeking Peace: Chronicles of the Worst Buddhist in the World （Riverhead）. Mary is a lovely, comfortable writer who takes the reader through her personal awakening after reputation and fortune came her way. Even if you've never experienced life as a bestselling writer （as she has done, in her book years back, Reviving Ophelia）, you'll totally understand and sympathize with her renewed need for privacy, distance and quiet.
What if you want a straightforward, totally thrilling read with vivid characters, set about World War II? You cannot go wrong with Jim Lehrer's new novel, Oh, Johnny （Random House）, about a young Marine whose life is changed forever when he meets a woman on his way to war. His relationship with her lasts him through danger and hardship, and there's an impressive ending. See our interview with the productive novelist/newsman in the current issue of Reader's Digest （March, on stands now）, by the way, for insight into the very talented Mr. Lehrer and what interests him.
Well, what about something wickedly funny and totally offbeat? Does the name Carrie Fisher do anything for you? Try her vivid and new life in Hollywood and elsewhere, Wishful Drinking （Simon & Schuster）. Be prepared for humor as sharp as knives.
What does the writer want to tell us by the underlined sentence?
A. The world is complex and hard. B. Scarpetta is a thriller.
C. The fiction is hard to understand. D. Society is hard to fit into.
Which of the following is true of Mary Pipher?
A. She is an adventurous writer. B. She doesn’t care about fortune.
C. Her books normally sell well. D. She can help you achieve writing skills.

Have you ever heard the phrase, “Love is blind”? If so, you are already 1 with a type of mistake in our attempts to understand others: halo effects.

For example, most organizations contain one or more “superstars”--- people who have earned the reputation for being unusually 5 and capable. Once they have gained such a “halo”, everything they do receives good 6 . Ideas that would be regarded as just so-so if suggested by someone else are seen as 7 when proposed by these persons. And actions that might be considered risky if taken by others are seen as brave when carried out by these “chosen” men and women.

Further, by giving too much influence to persons who are not ready to receive it, and by preventing hidden talent from being 10 , they can harm organizations as well as individuals. Clearly, then, it is important to recognize the existence and impact of halo effects; only then can their harmful effects be avoided.

After six months of living in New Zealand, I realized one thing. Despite my 36 for greater contact with local students, 37 I initiated(开始) the contact, it wouldn’t happen. Local students are not interested in contacts with the international students, because they regard us as shy, 38 and sometimes snobby （势利的） people. Of course we know that’s not true. I want to change their opinions.
After 39 the problem, I put on my “confidence mask” each morning and walked around with a smile on my face. I chatted with people whenever I had the chance. I showed that I was not afraid to 40 them, and that I was worthy of being a friend.

Instead of dragging myself to school and 45 to be happy, I was truly happy. I could not believe it when I was elected to the student government as Deputy Head boy----the first international student to receive the title.
From my 46 in New Zealand, I believe one thing will always be true: If you try your best to reach your goals, you’ll achieve your 47 dreams.
