When you are reading something in English, you may often meet with a new word. What’s the best way to know it? You may look it up in the English-Chinese dictionary. It will tell you a lot about the word: the pronunciation, the Chinese meaning and how to use the word. But how can you know where the word is ? How to find it in the dictionary both quickly and correctly? First, all the English words are arranged(安排) in the letter order. In the dictionary you can first see the words beginning with letter A, then B, C, D…. That means, if there are two words “desert” and “pull”, “desert” will be certainly before “pull”. Then if there are two words both beginning with the same letter, you may look at the second letter. Then the third, the fourth… For example, “pardon” is before “plough”, “judge” before “just”, etc. Do you understand how to look up in the dictionary? The dictionary will be your good friend. I hope you’ll use it as often as possible in your English study. 1.This passage is about______. A．new words in writing B．different dictionaries C．the best way of reading D．using an English-Chinese dictionary 2.In the dictionary you may not find_______.

Television has taken the place of schools as the main educator(教育者) in America. There are several reasons for this. First, there is the number of hours. While Americans spend about 13,000 hours in schools, they spend 15,000 to 16,000 hours in front of a TV set. Second is the age at which viewers(观看者) start watching TV. People start watching and understanding TV at about the age of 3, which is several years before they start to do school work. Finally, there is the number of viewers.
