George Zinunerman's first court appearance before a Florida judge came on Tuesday inconnection with the shooting of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin. The case has caused a national debate in the United States about race, self-defense laws and gun control. It was the first time the public had gotten to see and hear from George Zimmerman. The judge said he had found probable cause to move ahead with the case and told Zimmerman he would be formally charged　on May 29th.
Zimmerman turned himself into authorities on Wednesday night，just before special prosecutor（公诉人）Angela Corey announced the charge against him. Corey told reporters she would fight for　Trayvon Martin”
"It's the victims and justice that we work tirelessly for,”Corey said

If you are hungry, what would you do? Have your favorite meal and stay quiet after that?　　But it never lets you know, because you keep it busy thinking about your friends or fa- vorite stars. So it silently serves your needs and never lets itself grow. When mind loses its freedom to grow, creativity sets a full stop. This might be the reason why we all sometimes think "What happens next?"，"Why can't I think?" 　　Why reading but not watching TV? It is because reading has been the most educa-tive tool used by us right from childhood. Since it develops other aspects of our life, we have to take help from reading.
Once you read a book, you run your eyes through the lines and your mind tries to explainsomething to you.　 　Now this seed is unknowingly used by you to develop new ideas. If itis used many times, the same seed can give you great help to relate a lot of things, which youwould have never thought of in your wildest dreams！
This is nothing but creativity.　 　，Within no time you can start talking with yourfriends in English or any other language and never run out of the right words.
So guys, do give food for your thoughts by reading, reading and～reading.　 　Go
and get a book!

E. Hunger of the mind can be actually solved through wide reading.
F. Reading can help you make more friends，too.
G. Also this makes a significant contribution to your vocabulary.
