You know you have to read "between the lines，" to get the information. （1） You shouldn't mark a book which isn't yours.People who lend you books expect you to keep them clean.If you think it is useful to mark books，you will have to buy them.
There are two ways in which one can own a book.One is to pay for it，just as you pay for clothes and furniture （家具）.But full ownership comes only when you have made it a part of yourself. （2）
There are three kinds of book owners.（3） The second has most of the books that are as clean as those on the day they were bought.The third has a few dog﹣eared （翻折的）books，which are marked from front to back.
Why is marking a book necessary？ （4） And reading is thinking.The marked book is usually the thought﹣through book.Writing helps you remember the thoughts you had a lot，or the thoughts the writer expressed.
（5） The book you read for pleasure can be read in a state （状态）of relation，and nothing is lost.But for a great book，rich in ideas，you can't let your eyes move across the lines.You should come up with an understanding of what you have read.
| A.The best way to be a full owner is by writing it. B.Here are some suggestions on getting the information during your reading. C.Because it keeps you awake. D.If reading is to learn anything more than passing time，it must be active. E.The first has all the books that are unread and untouched. |
In high school and college，you may be encouraged to travel or study abroad.Perhaps you are too busy with your schoolwork to seriously consider these chances.I encourage traveling at a young age. （1） .
As young people，most of us live with mom and dad.Our community knows us well，too.The idea of getting out of this comfort zone（舒适区） can be scary （可怕的）.
（2） In our daily life，we know well how to act and respond（答复）to people.But how about being in a new place，with strangers who hold different values？It can be uncomfortable at first.But once you work out that you can connect with people in spite of（尽管）differences，you become smarter and more confident.You should learn to face this discomfort.It will help you to grow.
By traveling widely，you will also develop cultural sensitivity（敏感性）.Being culturally sensitive is important.And it is not enough to just know， "People from that country are like this."
When I was in Spain，for example，I found people there took a two﹣hour break in the middle of their workday.Many foreigners consider the Spanish people lazy. （3） To the Spanish people，eating together as a family is more important than anything else.Cultural sensitivity will help you with your communication on both business and personal levels.
Finally，I'd like to mention that traveling abroad will be a wonderful way to learn a new language.Being in a new language﹣learning environment，you will have to use the language.（4）
| A.It helps you to learn a new language as well. B.In fact，the Spanish people are always like this. C.However，one learns the most in strange situations. D.The earlier you travel widely，the more you can learn. E.In this way，you will improve your language skills better. F.Few of them know people there place great value on family time. |
Did you know that chocolate comes from a tree？The cacao（可可）tree gets large brown fruits called cocoa pods（荚），and inside the pods are cocoa beans.To make chocolate，first we leave the beans in the dark for a few days，and then dry them in the sun.
（1） That liquid（液体）is pressed until it separates and the result is cocoa butter（可可脂），which can be turned into chocolate. （2）
The first people to grow cacao trees for chocolate were the Mayans，who lived in Mexico thousands of years ago.（3） When people from Spain came to Mexico，they discovered the drink，they took chocolate home with them，and soon the love for chocolate spread all over Europe!
Wouldn't you like to have a cacao tree in your garden so you could have your own special supply（供应）of chocolate？Well，don't even think about it! （4） What a pity!
Chocolate is good for you as long as you don't eat it all day long!It has iron，which is good for your body!（5） So don't eat too much，and remember to brush your teeth after you eat it!
| A.They used chocolate to make a special drink. B.What a lot of work just to make a piece of chocolate! C.But remember where there is chocolate，there is sugar! D.After that，the beans are pressed hard until a dark liquid comes out. E.Cacao trees can only grow in rainforests，where it is very hot and rainy all the time. |
The Value of Negative Results
We all avoid failure（失败），and most of us fear it.However，without failure，progress would be impossible.What does success usually come after？Failure.It seems that one cannot exist（存在）without the other.
Accepting failure is not easy for many，though we are often unwilling accept failure because our professional fame depends on success.（1） In the past ten years，for example，some scientific magazines have published reports of failed tests.It is believed that scientists can learn more "negative（负面的）"results and that this can finally lead to positive results.
（2） The ABN AMRO bank started an Institute （机构）of Brilliant Failures to learn more about what works and what doesn't in banking.Eli Lilly and Company had failure parties to study the drugs（药物）that don't work.
In fact，one of the business world's most famous failures became one of its biggest successes，in part because the product's makers learned from their mistakes.（3） The product，though unique（独特的）at the time，was expensive and heavy；besides，some of its most important features（特点）didn't work properly.As a result，Apple's CEO，Steve Jobs，believed in the product and he began to find out ways of improving it.In time，this led to the production of the iPhone and the iPad，two of the company's most successful products.
（4） Not only should we try to learn from it if we want to succeed，we must also be persistent（执着的）.Though Apple stopped selling the Newton in 1998，the first iPhone wasn't available until 2007.It took a lot of research and hard work to go from the Apple Newton to iPhone but in the end，the effort became successful.
All in all，there is a lot we can learn by studying mistakes.Perhaps the most important lesson is that failure and success are two sides of the same coin. （5）
A.One truly cannot exist without the other.
B.We are brave enough to face difficulties.
C.In the early 1990s，Apple created a phone called the Apple Newton.
D.The business world already understands the value of negative results.
E.The Apple Newton has won popularity with people all over the world.
F.However，things are slowly changing，especially in business and science.
G.The story of the Apple Newton can teach us an important lesson about failure.
A mind map is basically a tool that connects information around a central subject.It can help you make a knowledge bank to solve problems.A student recently said， "I thought mind mapping would take a lot of time to do but in fact it saves me time.（1）

Connect your main branches （分支） to the central picture and connect your second﹣and﹣third﹣level branches to the first and second levels，etc.Why？Because your brain works by connection（4） If you connect the branches，you will understand and remember a lot more easily.
Use one key word every line.Why？Because every single key word can make you learn more clearly and easily.
（5） Why？Because each picture，just like the central picture，is also worth a thousand words.So，if you have 10 pictures in your mind map，they are already worth 10，000 words of notes.
