Last summer, 15-year-old Bob had a problem. Like a lot of children, Bob was interested in doing many things. He liked dancing best and wanted to join a dancing group. But Bob’s high school didn’t have a boys’ dancing group but a girls’ group. He tried to join the girls’ group. And he made it.
Bob thought his problem was over after he had been one of the dancers in the dancing group. But a bigger problem was just beginning.

After months of study, you have some time to relax. So, why not _______1______(read) a book
Well, some people will say, “Why trouble with books We have the Internet and other media that offer a lot more colorful programs. Books are history!” _______2______ don’t be fooled. There’s still a lot to be said for reading.
One clear reason is that a well-chosen book is a wonderful collection of ______3_______(word) and expressions, as long as you have a good dictionary, of course. Believe me. It’s far easier ______4_______(get) standard English from a book than from the TV or the Internet.
But an even ______5_______(important) point is that books give you something that modern media cannot. The webpage is always full of pictures _______6______ the text is often designed to make it as easy to read as possible. Though “easy” may be welcome. _______7______(lucky) , it’s of little use for any long-time development of reading skills and the general language level. For that, there’s still no substitute(替代品)for a book.
