One afternoon，the high school boy Clay Jensen received a mysterious package with no return address. When he opened it，he was 36 to find seven tapes，which were 37 by Hannah Baker，his classmate who had committed suicide (自杀）two weeks earlier. Clay had secretly been in love with her but never had the 38 to tell her about it.

On the tapes，Hannah had 39 thirteen reasons for ending her own 40 and Clay was one of the reasons. Hannah had even left him a 41 marking places with dots for him to visit.

Clay walked out of his home and with her voice in his 42；he wandered all over the town trying to uncover the reasons why she felt her life had to end so tragically(悲剧地）．

43 Hannah and Clay's story，American author Jay Asher wove（编织）a sad story of confusion and desperation in novel，Thirteen Reasons Why，which had 44 on The New York Times best-selling list for eight weeks.

As Clay anxiously 45 how he played a part in her suicide，he noticed how a number of little，seemingly unimportant 46 can add up to a terrible high school existence for someone else.

It 47 us all that sometimes when something is said or done to 48 another intentionally, it can have 49 effects and can even lead to other major events in that person’s life.

The theme of the story is that we are all 50 our own actions. Hannah admitted it was her

51 to end her life. However，if someone had 52 differently，she could have changed her decision.

53 it is an imaginary story，many of us will connect parts of Hannah’s high school career with something in our life and may 54 know someone showing warning signs of suicide. And

55 we can act and prevent such a tragedy.

A proven method of effective textbook reading is the SQ3R method developed by Francis Robinson. The first step is to survey (the S step）the chapter by reading the title, introduction, section headings, summary and by studying any graphs, tables illustrations or charts. The purpose for this step is to get an overview of the chapter so that you will know before you read what it will be about. In the second step (the Q step）, for each section you ask yourself questions such as “What do I already know about this topic?” and “What do I want to know?” In this step you also take the section heading and turn it into a question. This step gives you a purpose for reading the section. The third step (the first of the 3R’s） is to read to find the answer to your questions. Then at the end of each section, before going on to the next section, you recite (the second of the 3R’s）the answers to the questions that you formed in the question step. When you recite you should say the information you want to learn out loud in your own words. The fifth step is done after you have completed steps 2,3, and 4 for each section. You review (the last of the 3R's）the entire chapter. The review is done much as the survey was in the first step. As you review, hold a mental conversation with yourself as you recite the information you selected as important to learn. The mental conversation could take the form of asking and answering the questions formed from the headings or reading the summary, which lists the main ideas in the chapter, and trying to fill in the details for each main idea.
