Why Short Stories Are Best for English Learning

You get more time to focus on words. When a text is short, you can have more time to learn how every single word is used and what importance it has in the text. This is more useful for those who are  (begin) of English. You can read a whole story at a time. Attention length is very important for learning. And the ability to finish a story gives you more time  (understand) it. Short stories are written to give you  (much)information with less effort (努力).

It is best for consistency (一致性). It is much easier to read one story every day than trying to read a big novel that never  (seem) to end.

You can share them easily in a group. Since short stories can  (read) in any place, they are perfect for book clubs and learning circles. Most of the time these groups do not work because members have no time to read. Short stories are the perfect way for them.

You can focus more on ideas. Language is less about words and more about the meanings behind them. If you spend all your time  (learn) vocabulary and grammar, you will never be able to speak a language  (smooth) because you will have little to talk about. Short stones give you the chance to understand big ideas in a short text.

In a word, short stories will not only improve your English reading comprehension (理解力) but also open your mind to different worlds.

 There are several Chinese sayings that are similar to" how time flies". Ancient Chinese compared time to many things.

 One of {#blank#}1{#/blank#} ( popular) sayings is probably"光阴似箭, 日月如梭( Time flies by like an arrow; Days and {#blank#}2{#/blank#} ( month) flash by as fast as a weaver's shuttle.)" It is easy {#blank#}3{#/blank#}( understand) the" arrow" part. All of us know {#blank#}4{#/blank#} fast arrows are. What about a weaver's shuttle?

In ancient times, many Chinese people made a living by growing crops (庄稼) and weaving cloth(织布). Nearly every family {#blank#}5{#/blank#} ( have) a loom(织布机). A shuttle is a tool on the loom that moves {#blank#}6{#/blank#} ( quick) when someone is weaving. Since it was so often seen, ancient Chinese used it in this saying.

 Another popular Chinese saying {#blank#}7{#/blank#} the passing of time is"白驹过隙". It means that time flies by like a white horse running past a crack (缝隙) in a wall. The saying comes from {#blank#}8{#/blank#} book called Zhuangzi. In this book, it is said that Confucius came to Laozi to ask about the ultimate(终极的) truth of the universe. Laozi told Confucius that a {#blank#}9{#/blank#} ( person) life was as quick as"a white horse running past a crack". One's body would die, {#blank#}10{#/blank#} his or her spirit could live on forever.
