六、任务型阅读
Why do children need to read at least 20 minutes a day Read it and you’ll know.
Reading is “brain（大脑）food”. Reading will improve many of the areas of the brain. Your eyes look at the words on the page. Your memory connects the words with what you already know about the story. Reading provides one of the most complex（复杂的）brain activities in life.
Reading improves listening skills. The experience of reading helps children develop good listening skills. Through reading they can know how to pronounce（发音）and learn new words to add to their vocabularies and connect written words to the things in their real world.
Reading prepares children for school. In this way, children are expected to come into school with high scores. There is a strong relationship（关系）between a child’s ability to read and his scores.

us.”
The Psammead looked a little h 66 when it heard that, and it said, “Well, you can talk to me. Perhaps I’ll answer you and perhaps I won’t. Now say something.”
At first, the children could not think of a 67 to say, but then Jane asked, “How long have you lived here ”
“Oh, a very long t 68 , about thousands of years,” the Psammead answered.
The children waited, but the Psammead was silent. “Please tell us more,” Jane said.
“Well, all right, then,” the Psammead said. “There were lots of us then. People sent their children out to look for Psammeads, and when they f 69 us, we gave them a wish.”
“What happened to all the Psammeads, then ” Jane asked.
“Well, most of us died. And I’m not going to tell you anything.”

“You’ve had one,” said the Psammead. “You w 71 to see me just now, and here I am.”
“Oh, please. Just another wish,” Anthea cried.

The girls stood there for a second, and then Anthea turned to speak to Jane, b 74 Jane was not there! Anthea was looking at a stranger—a girl with beautiful red hair and big blue eyes. Suddenly she u 75 they had their wish. The stranger was Jane—now they were beautiful.

66．句意：赛米德听了这话显得有点高兴/更高兴了。根据“but I can feel that you are something wonderful. Please talk more to us”可知，听到Jane这么说，赛米德很开心，
happy“开心的”，此空可以填形容词原级，a little修饰比较级，也可以填比较级，故填(h)appier/(h)appy。
