As a student, you must have read a lot of interesting books. Most of the books come from the school library, I am sure. Perhaps you also get books from the bookstore in your town. The books are something given to you as　 21　 　by your parents or friends, I think. Besides, if you like reading and want to learn more, I am sure that you buy books　　 22　　 .

Have you ever thought how books are　 23　 ? Well, after a book is written, it passes through the hands of many different workers. Each one works very carefully, for there must not be any 　　24　 in the book.　 It is read many times by different people before it is finished.

Millions of books are printed in our country every year. So people can get　 25　 to read. Now may I ask you a question? How well do you take 　26　 of books? What have you learned about the care of books?

Perhaps you bought yourself some　 27　　 books. Have you put paper covers on them? Do you open　　 28　 　carefully? Sometimes new books break along the back if you open them　 29　 in the middle. I hope that you don’t __30　 　the pages carelessly. If you do, you may tear them.
