It is agreed that reading play an important part in people’s life. 36 Memory is sometimes a tricky thing. You may have just read the text, but the ideas, concepts（概念）and images may fly right out of your head. Here are a few tips for remembering what you read.

? Are you confused（困惑）?

If the plot, characters, or word usage is confusing for you, you likely won’t be able to remember what you read. 37 If you don’t understand what you’re reading, how would you remember it? But there are a few things you can do… Use a dictionary; look up the difficult words.

? 38 Does a character remind you of a friend? Does the setting（场景）make you want to visit the place? Does the book inspire you, and make you want to read more? With some books, you may feel a connection right away. But other books require a bit more work on your part. How willing are you to make the connections happen?

? Read it; hear it; be it!

Read the lines. Then, speak them out loud. And, put some character into the words. When he was writing his novels, Charles Dickens would act out the parts of the characters. He’d make faces in the mirror, and change his voice for each character. 39

? How often do you read?

If you read frequently, you’ll likely have an easier time with remembering what you’re reading (and what you’ve read). 40 As you make reading a regular part of your life, you’ll stay more focused and understand the text better. So practice a lot. You’ll learn to enjoy literature and remember what you read! A. Are you connecter? B. Practice makes perfect. C. What’s your favorite book?

D. It’s a bit like reading a foreign language. E. Watching movies helps you remember what you read. F. You can do the same thing when you are reading the text!

G. But you should make sure that you remember what you’ve read! 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）

For some people, the warmest memories from childhood come from being read a great story. But reading to children does more than create warm memories, 71 develops children’s language skills and increases their ability to succeed in school and, later, work.

A new report by the American Academy of Pediatrics says reading aloud is 72 important that parents should start as soon as their children are born. And they should continue to read aloud even after their children can read by 73 (they).

Parents should read books that are not too long and on the right age level so children will not lose interest. Elizabeth Lyttleton has three daughters. Ms. Lyttleton says all her children learn from books-but 74 different ways. “I watch the language in my two-and-a-half-year-old, who is now getting a big language 75 (explode), so much of it comes from the books that she reads.
