My first English novel was Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice,recommended by many Eng?lish teachers and professors as an ideal book for English learners. But my experience was some?what disastrous"艮糟的) .Stumbling (摇摇晃晃的) along the lines,I had great difficulty in under?standing the novel,let alone enjoying it. It's not the vocabulary that troubled me,but rather the way Austen constructs sentences,and her way of thinking,which seemed too remote to me at that time. My fading enthusiasm was much recovered after reading Hemingway's novel Farewell to Arms. No long and complicated sentences. And I particularly liked his concise (简明的) and straightforward style. So my first suggestion is,as a beginner,you'd better choose contemporary novels instead of classical ones. You can easily engage yourself in reading,get fun out of it,and gradually build up confidence. I do not mean to exclude (不在考虑之列) classi?cal novels for ever. Actually,the second reading of Pride and Prejudice greatly pleased me (probably the result of my improved English comprehension) . It is only that classical novels are less accessible (易接近的) to beginners due to their language styles and social background. I'd like to recommend three contemporary novelists to you―Ursula Le Guin,Ernest Hemingway,and Doris Lessing.
However,reading novels is not the only way to improve your English. In fact,if you re?strict yourself to novels,you will miss a lot of treasures. English essays can at once inform you,entertain you,and refine your taste in English. The best example is Bertrand Russell's work. Its language is plain,yet you cannot help feeling the elegance (雅致) and the peculiar sense of hu?mor. His simple language enables his philosophy within the reach of ordinary people. Here comes my second suggestion―essays are indispensable (必不可少的) .
My last advice is never follow others' recommendations and opinions blindly,however fa?mous or influential the person might be. We should be open to various ideas,but always think and determine for ourselves. As a saying goes,one man's meat is another man's poison. With that in mind,we are bound to find out our favorite writers through reading and develop our fine taste in English.

Like most kids,you probably don't spend much time worrying about heart disease. After all,hypertension tends to become more common as people reach middle age and older. But doc?tors say it's never too early to start thinking about your heart or about salt.
Blood pressure has been going up over the past decade in children and teenagers in the United States and many European countries. And a kid with high blood pressure is more likely to become a grownup with hypertension.
Cutting down on salt might help stop the cycle. In one recent study,researchers from the United Kingdom analyzed 10 trials involving nearly 1,000 kids. The trial results showed that lowering sodium intake by 40 to 50 percent led to a significant decrease in blood pressure,even in infants.
Reducing salt might also help fight childhood obesity,a growing public health problem. British researchers recently found that kids who eat less salt also drink fewer sugary soft drinks. Drinking less soda makes kids less likely to gain weight,become obese and develop high blood pressure.
And salt can affect more than just your heart and weight. A study published in October found that a growing number of kids in the U. S. are suffering from an illness called kidney stones. This painful condition used to mostly affect people in their40s and older. Now,kids as young as 5 are getting it.
The kidneys are responsible for filtering salt out of the bloodstream. So researchers think that kids' eating too much salt and not drinking enough water are partly to blame for the trend.
( ) 5. What's the main idea of the passage?
A. Hypertension is the most popular disease among adults.
B. People should reduce salt and sugary soft drinks.
C. People should begin thinking about salt at present. .
D. Salt will affect your heart and weight.
( ) 6. If you want to lower the risk of getting heart attack,you'd better .
A. drink less and eat less every day if possible
B. avoid eating too much salt but drink more soft drinks
C. take regular examinations in the hospital
D. reduce nearly half of the amount of the salt you take
( ) 7. The whole text is developed by .
A. space B. evidence C. time D. importance
( ) 8. What may partly cause children to get kidney stones?
A. Eating too much salt and drinking little water.
B. Eating too much and doing little exercise.
C. Sleeping too much and putting on weight.
D. Taking in too much salt and fat.

New technology comes to the aid of the disabled in many forms that will knock your socks off!
A mobility robot is a robot that is designed to help disabled people move around. It might have wheels,but most often it will have legs so it can climb stairs and uneven ground. It might also take the form of a mobility suit,which is a kind of robot that surrounds your body,arms and legs. Here are some examples.
Toyota Partner Robot This mobility robot can not only transport you around,you can also make it follow you around and use it to transport all the things you have bought when you are shopping. Even though it has wheels,it can still climb stairs since each wheel can move independently up and down.
Twendy One The other amazing mobility robots in the top 10 can only help you move around. Twendy One is different. It can help you move around and help you do almost all your household chores. Thanks to Twendy One's ability to understand human instructions,it can help you toast bread,prepare your dinner and find all kinds of stuff for you.
EL-E Fetch Bot The EL-E might not be a true mobility robot. It can't help you move around,but it can fetch things for you so you don't need to move anyway. All you need to do is to point a laser pointer at something and EL-E will race to get it for you. You can also point at another location to make EL-E move the item instead of giving it to you.
Bonus-BEAR Disabled people aren't the only ones who need to be transported around. Wounded soldiers might also need a lift back to base,so say hello to BEAR―Battlefield Extraction Assist Robot. The BEAR's two legs are designed so they can go anywhere a human can and the two arms can lift more than 250 pounds―enough to carry a wounded soldier.
