本周已更新 关于英语阅读能力的训练和提高（讨论+分享）
发这个帖子的理由很简单：在教学中发现学生阅读能力在综合能力中显的比较薄弱，而且也是热门英语考试及比赛的重要失分点。况且，想要阅读分数在短时间内立马提高，几乎是不太现实的事情，所以，在时间允许的情况下，每周我会在该贴上更新一至两篇英语短文，有时间的家长或者小朋友可以阅览，若是可以的话适当地选择几篇背诵一下。最终要的还是 坚持！长久的篇章锻炼，对阅读能力有一定的帮助，若能再 背诵两篇，对记忆力甚至是写作能力也会有不小的帮助。
有几个 小建议：
1. 宁可 坚持每天一篇，也不要因为一时的兴趣，头两天阅读了3篇，后几天阅读1篇，之后就放弃了。
2. 不懂的单词先纵观全文进行 猜测，不要一遇生词就查词典。
3. 如果只是对着电脑屏幕看，尤其是在晚上容易瞌睡，不如 放声朗读。平时在学校锻炼口语的机会本身就少，加上小学阶段几乎都有辨音题，及时发现自己的语音薄弱处就能有效的进行改正，对辨音题也有很大的帮助。
4. 若对篇章有了一定的理解后，可以尝试着进行 复述，把篇章内容告诉父母或者是周围的朋友，大家一起学习一起进步。
5. 从易到难，逐步提高， 切忌心急。
P.S. 欢迎各位提出意见，并且能分享自己的学习经验或心得！
开始我会先选择较为通俗易懂的寓言故事或短篇笑话。
PASSAGE ONE:
THE ANT AND THE DOVE
A thirsty Ant went to the bank of a river to drink water. Unluckily,she was carried away by the rush of the stream, and was on the point ofdrowning.
A Dove was sitting in the branches of a tree. When he saw the Ant indanger, he plucked a leaf and threw it into the stream close to her. The Antclimbed onto it and floated in safety to the bank.
Shortly afterwards a bird catcher came and stood under the tree, and laidhis net for the Dove, which sat in the branches.
The Ant saw his design and stung him in the foot. In pain the bird catcherthrew down the net, and the noise made the Dove fly away.

The boy knows it and takes precautions against it.
One afternoon all the students went to have lunch and he bought a piece of bread. He was reading a book under a big tree, while a dog was standing near him. At that moment the headmaster came out and saw it. He became angry and said, “Don’t you know we don’t let anybody rear dogs in the school?”
“Yes, I do, sir.” said Robert.
“Why have you brought your dog to school, then?”
“It isn’t my dog.”
“Why is it following you, then?”
“You are following me now, too.” said the boy, “Can you say you are mine?”

PASSAGE NINE:
THE BEAR, THE MONKEY AND THE PIG A bear with which a Piedmontese earned his living was trying out on two feet a dance which he had not learned very well.
Wishing to act like a man, he said to a monkey, “How is it?” The monkey, who was a connoisseur, answered. “Very bad.”
“I believe,” replied the bear, “That you are not very kind to me. What, my appearance is not graceful? I do not do the step accurately?”
The pig was present and said, “Bravo! You are doing well. A more excellent dance has never been seen, nor will be seen.”
The bear, on hearing this, there upon took stock of himself, and with a modest manner, exclaimed thus.
“When the monkey disapproved of me, I began to doubt; but since the pig praises me, I must dance very badly.”
Let an author keep this maxim as his girl: If the wise man does not approve, bad! If the fool applauds, worse!
