If you are hungry, what do you do? Have your favorite meal and stay quiet after that? __76__ But it never lets you know, because you keep it busy thinking about your friends or favorite stars. So it silently serves your needs and never lets itself grow. When mind loses its freedom to grow, creativity(创造力) gets a full stop. This might be the reason why we all sometimes think “ What happens next?”, “Why can’t I think?”
__77__ Why reading but not watching TV? It is because reading has been the most educative tool used by us right from childhood. Since it develops other aspects of our life, we have to take help from reading.
Once you read a book, you run your eyes through the lines and your mind tries to explain something to you. __78__ Now this seed(果实) is unknowingly used by you to develop new ideas. If it is used many times, the same seed can give you great help to relate(联系) a lot of things, which you would have never thought of in your wildest dreams!
This is nothing but creativity. __79__ Within no time you can start talking with your friends in English or any other language and never run out of the right words.
So guys, do give food for your thoughts by reading, reading and more reading. __80__ Go and get a book!

Chicago, a city in the State of Illinois, is the second largest in the United States. It stretches for 29 miles along the southwest shore of Lake Michigan. Its splendid centre faces the lake behind a pleasant park. The Chicago River flows through the heart of the city. The city of Chicago, 713 miles west of New York and 1858 miles east of San Francisco, is located at the conjunction(连接) of the Great Lakes and the Mississippi River system and surrounded by the productive farmlands of the Midwest. This makes the city the crossroads of the nation and the “ bread basket” of the nation. From its beginning as a frontier fort(要塞) settlement in 1803, commerce(商业) has been the key to Chicago’s development, especially since the railroads and stockyards(牲畜围栏) were built in the 1840s and 1850s.
