Right now you are reading English. That means that you are using your brain in a very active way. Reading is a very active process. 1.. When you read a text, you have to do some or all of these:
• Imagine a scene in your head
• Understand clearly what the writer is trying to say
• Agree or disagree with the writer
There are also many advantages associated with reading, including:
2.
You will usually meet with new words when you read. If there are too many new words for you, then the level is too high and you should read something simpler. But if there are, say, a maximum of five new words per page, you will learn this vocabulary easily. You may not even need to use a pocket dictionary because you can guess the meaning from the rest of the text. 3..
A model for writing
When you read, it gives you a good example for writing. Texts that you read show you structures and expressions that you can use when you write.
Seeing “correctly structured” English
When people write, they usually use “correct” English with a proper grammatical structure. 4.. So, by reading you see and learn grammatical English naturally.
5.
You can read as fast or as slowly as you like. You can read ten pages in 30 minutes, or take one hour to explore just one page. It doesn’t matter. The choice is yours. You can not easily do this when speaking or listening. This is one of the big advantages of reading because different people work at different speeds.
A. Working at your own speed
B. Learning vocabulary in context (语境)
C. This is not always true when people speak
D. Focusing on exactly what you want to learn
E. you should write down unknown vocabulary in whole sentences

G. It is true that the writer does a lot of work, but the reader also has to work hard
Equipped only with a pair of binoculars (双筒望远镜) and ready to spend long hours waiting in all weathersfor a precious glance of a rare bullfinch (红腹灰雀), Britain’s birdwatchers had long been supposed to be lovers of a minority sport. But new figures show bird-watching is fast becoming a popular pastime, with almost three million of us absorbed in our fluttering (飞来飞去) feathered friends.
Devoted birdwatchers, those prepared to travel thousands of miles for sighting of a rare Siberian bird, are fast being joined by a new breed (类型) of follower whose interest is satiated by watching a few finches (雀科鸣鸟) on a Sunday walk or putting up a bird-box in the back garden.
“Almost three million UK birdwatchers is certainly possible if you include everyone with only a casual interest,” Stephen Moss said in his newly published book——A bird in the Bush: a Social History of Birdwatching——which records the pursuit from the rich Victorian Englishman’s love of shooting rare birds to the less offensive observational tendencies of birdwatchers today.
Television wildlife programmes have helped to fuel the new trend. Last summer, BBC 2’s Britain Goes Wild was a surprise success. It pulled in three million views and led to bird-houses selling out across the UK as 45,000 people promised to put up a box.
Birdwatchers networking system first came to the attention of the nation in 1989, when a birdwatcher caught sight of the first Vermivora chrysoptera— a golden-winged songbirdfrom North America-to be seen in Britain. He put a message out on the network service Birdline, and the next day 3,000 birdwatchers proved the full pull of a truly rare bird as they visited the Tesco car park in Kent., where it had settled. Today, birdwatchers can log on to www.birdline.co.uk or have news of the latest sightingtexted to their phones.
“Multimillion-pound spending on binoculars, bird food and boxes point to the increasing numbers of birdwatchers.” Said David Croack, the editor of Bird Watching magazine “The number of people involved is so big that they have great potential to influence government decisions affecting the environment.”
1.The word “satiated” in paragraph 2 can best be replaced by “ ”.
A. affected B. shared
C. satisfied D. narrowed
2.What happened after the message offing a Vermivora Chrysoptera was put on the network?
A. Birdwatchers helped the rare bird settle in Kent.
B. Large numbers of birdwatchers went to view the bird.
C. Many birdwatchers logged on to the website for details.
D. Birdwatchers showed their determination to protect the rare bird.
3.Which of the following CANNOT he true according to the passage?
A. Television wildlife programmes started the popular pastime of bird watching.
B. The network service has contributed to the rapid development of bird watching.
C. Birdwatching in Britain was long considered a sport with a small group of followers.
D. The current situation of birdwatching may promote the protection of the environment.
