Reading is a lifelong journey. Put yourself into a world of books and get lost in another world—but where do you start? {#blank#}1{#/blank#}
◆ Ask a librarian(图书管理员)
The best people to throw your questions at are librarians! {#blank#}2{#/blank#} If you tell a librarian what you've read before and what you liked or disliked about it, they will suggest some possible books for you to try.
◆ Make a change.
{#blank#}3{#/blank#}You may get used to reading history books or you just take an interest in science fictions. What about the books about culture? You'll never know until you try. Give a new style a chance and you may enter a whole new world of reading.
◆ Read reviews.
Book reviews can help you decide if a book is for you. There are usually short reviews on the covers of books. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}Some websites provide book suggestions from writers, parents and teachers. Some people's opinions about the books are very interesting. Their ideas may help you get a right pick.
◆ {#blank#}5{#/blank#}
Reading something comfortable might be your first choice. But why not challenge yourself to read something more complicated(复杂的)? It is a good way of pushing yourself to improve your reading skills.
A. Challenge yourself. B. They are cool book brains C. You can also read reviews online. D. Let me tell you how to write book reviews. E. Changing into a new style of book is not easy. F. Here are some suggestions to pick a great book. G. Developing good reading habits takes a long time. |
A. Join a support group (支持小组). B. Change how you make sounds. C. Record and listen to your voice. E. Sing along with your favorite songs. D. Be open about your stutter (口吃). |
Not being able to speak clearly can make you feel bad about yourself. But remember, you're not alone - more than 80 million people around the world stutter. Here are some tips to help you improve your speech.
Practice speaking slowly.
Spend 5 to 10 minutes each day practicing slow speech, either by yourself or with someone who can help. Choose a topic you know well, and then talk about it without using notes. This practice helps you get used to thinking before you speak, just like in real conversations.
{#blank#}1{#/blank#}
Did you know that more than 100 muscles (肌肉) in your mouth help you talk? Since there are so many muscles involved, there are lots of ways to make a sound. If one way isn't working, try another.
{#blank#}2{#/blank#}
Another idea is to record yourself while reading aloud. Many people don't like listening to their recorded voice. But if you can do that, you'll be able to find out what sounds you're having problems with, so you know what you need to practice.
{#blank#}3{#/blank#}
Telling people you stutter before you talk to them for the first time might sound like your worst nightmare (噩梦) come true, but it can really help if you get nervous talking to people. Telling them about your stutter frees you from worrying about what they might think if you happen to stutter during the conversation.
{#blank#}4{#/blank#}
Sometimes you find the greatest help just from talking to someone else who's going through the same thing as you. You can understand each other and also share tips and speech exercises that have worked for you.
