    When we read books we seem to enter a new world. This new world can be similar to the one we are living in, or it can be very      . Some stories are told       they were true. Real people who live in a       world do real things; in other words, the stories are about people just like us doing what we do. Other stories, such as the Harry Potter books, are not       . They are characters and creatures that are very different from us and do things that would be       for us.

    But there is more to books and writing than this. If we think about it, even realistic writing is only     . How can we tell the difference between what is real and what is not real? For example, when we read about Harry Potter, we       seem to learn something about the real world. And when Harry studies magic at Hogwarts, he also learns more about his real life than      . Reading, like writing, is an action. It is a way of      . When we read or write something, we do much more than simple look at words on a page. We use our       -- which is real-- and our imagination-- which is real in a different way --- to make the words come to life in our minds.

    　　Both realism and fantasy(幻想)       the imagination and the “magic” of reading and writing to make us think. When we read       realistic, we have to imagine that the people we are reading about are just like us, even though we       that we are real and they are     . It sounds       , but it works. When we read, we fill in missing information and     about the causes and effects of what a character does. We help the writer by       that what we read is like real life. In a way, we are writing the book, too.

    　　Most of us probably don’t think about what is going on in our       when we are reading. We pick up a book and lose       in a good story, eager to find out what will happen next. Knowing how we feel       we read can help us become better readers, and it will help us discover more about the real magic of books.

    　　All over the world, and for many different reasons, there are millions of people who rarely or never eat meat．These people are called vegetarians．To people who eat meat, being a vegetarian may seem like a very strange thing, diets for several different reasons．

    　　First, vegetarians have an enormous health advantage．One of the major health problems in modern societies is not too little protein but too much food, especially in the form of animal fats．Medical evidence suggests that animal fats, including butter, contribute to the development of cholesterol in the human body．High amount of cholesterol seem to be part of the cause of heart disease．Most vegetarians have low level of cholesterol．High amounts of animal fats also seem to lead to certain kinds of cancer, and vegetarians are typitally less vulnerable to these cancers than people who eat a lot of meat．Overall, studies comparing the health of vegetarians and meat-eaters show that the meat-eaters are twice as likely to die of heart disease as vegetarians are．

    　　Better health is one reason that people choose to become vegetarians．Another reason is religion．Some religions forbid the eating of meat．The largest of these is the Hindu religion, which has about 600 million believers in the world．Although not all Hindus are vegetarian, many are, and there are many believers of other religions such Buddhism and even some Christian religions that also do not eat meat．

    　　Many vegetarians do not eat meat simply because they do not like the taste of it．They have no religious or philosophical reasons; they just do not like meat．Another important reason that vegetarians give for not eating meat is the health advantages that were given above．Lastly, there are many people who do not eat meat because they just do not like the idea of killing animals for food．They believe that life, all life, is valuable, and that we do not have to destroy life to feed ourselves when there are other good sources of food．

        You either have it, or you don’t— a sense of direction, that is. But why is it that some people could find their way across the Sahara without a map, while others can lose themselves in the next street?

        Scientists say we’re all born with a sense of direction, but it is not properly understood how it works. One theory is that people with a good sense of direction have simply worked harder at developing it. Research being carried out at Liverpool University supports this idea and suggests that if we don’t use it, we lose it.

        “Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around. Says Jim Martland, Research Director of the project. “However, if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car, they never develop the skills.”

        Jim Martland also emphasizes that young people should be taught certain skills to improve their sense of direction. He makes the following suggestions:

    l         If you are using a map, turn it so it relates to the way you are facing.

    l         If you leave your bike in a strange place, put it near something like a big stone or a tree. Note landmarks on the route as you go away from your bike. When you return, go back along the same route.

    l         Simplify the way of finding your direction by using lines such as streets in a town. Streams, or walls in the countryside to guide you. Count your steps so that you know how far you have gone and note any landmarks such as tower blocks or hills which can help to find out where you are.    

      Now you need never get lost again!

    1.Scientists believe that ______.

    A. some babies are born with a sense of direction

    B. people learn a sense of direction as they grow older

    C. people never lose their sense of direction

    D. everybody possesses a sense of direction from birth

    2.What is true of seven-year-old children according to the passage?

    A. They never have a sense of direction without maps.

    B. They should never be allowed out alone if they lack a sense of direction.

    C. They have a sense of direction and can find their way around.

    D. They can develop a good sense or direction if they are driven around in a car.

    3.If you leave your bike in a strange place, you should ______.

    A. tie it to a tree so as to present it from being stolen.

    B. draw a map of the route to help remember where it is.

    C. avoid taking the same route when you come back to it.

    D. remember something easily recognized on the route.

    4.According to the passage, the best way to find your way around is to ______.

    A. ask policemen for directions.

    B. use walls, streams and streets to guide yourself.

    C. remember your route by looking out for steps and stairs.

    D. count the number of landmarks that you see.
