Everyone has experienced trying but failing to master a difficult book, which was begun with the hope of increasing one's understanding. When that happens, it is 16 to think that it was a mistake to try to read it, but that was not the mistake. The mistake was in 17 too much from the first reading of a(n) 18 book. If you read it in the right way, no book written for the 19 reader, no matter how difficult, need be a cause for despair (绝望).
What is the right method? The 20 is an important and helpful rule of reading that is either not known or often forgotten. That rule is simply this: when reading a difficult book for the first time, read it through without ever 21 to think about the things that you do not understand immediately.
Do not be stopped by what you can't understand. Read through the difficult 22 , and you’ll soon come to things that you do understand. Read these 23 . You will have a much better chance of understanding all of the book when you read it again, but that 24 you to have read the book through once 25 .
What you understand by reading the book through to the 26 will help you when you try later to read the places that you did not 27 in your first reading. Or if you never re-read the book, understanding half of it is much better than understanding nothing of it, which will happen if you allow yourself to be stopped by the first difficult part of the book.
Most of us were taught to 28 the things that we do not understand. We were told to find the 29 of unfamiliar words, and to try to find an explanation in another 30 for anything that we did not understand in the book that we were reading. But when these things are done before the proper time, they only harm our reading, instead of helping it.

17. A. learning B. hoping C. accepting D. expecting
18. A. easy B. difficult C. important D. correct

22. A. words B. articles C. parts D. points

24.A. requires B. causes C. advises D. allows
25.A. later B. after C. before D. again
26.A. top B. end C. bottom D. cover
27.A. see B. turn C. notice D. understand

Everybody gets unhappy. That’s why people eat a lot of 21 or spend lots of money on clothes—they think that these things will make them 22 ! 23 , it is easy to create happiness, if you just have learned to be a 24 .
Giving 25 and resources to others who need them is a good thing to do. It will possibly contribute more to your happiness and to maintaining(保持) a 26 attitude than anything else.

Maybe you’ll find that this is the happiest 33 of your life. You can also volunteer for a rescue service. There you will learn the meaning of“I cried 34 I had no shoes and then I saw a man who had no legs”.
Isn’t it true that the happiest people are typically those we consider foolish because they are 35 ready to give you the 36 off their back? It is also 37 that the most discontent(不满足的) people are the ones who are always making demands and never 38 others.

Yet none of this could compare to the emotional 25 Brett had done to our once quiet home.
Brett came to live with us when he was 12 years old. During the next few years I had dealt with Brett a 26 as possible, but inside I was shouting.“I don’t want him in my house another day, Lord! I just can’t 27 him!” Having wiped my tears, I continued 28 him as before.
When Brett was nearly 18, he landed again in Juvenile Hall(少管所).After that, my husband and I had to send Brett to a boarding school for helping 29 teens.
At the 30 ceremony, each graduate held a white rose to give to the person who had 31 the most to him or her.
Brett spoke 32 to his parents and then spoke to me, “You did so much. You were always there, no matter 33 .My mom and dad, I was their kid. But you, 34 troubled enough by me, always 35 me such love. And I want you to know I love you for it.”
36 , I stood as Brett placed the white rose in my hand and hugged me 37 .
At that moment, tears 38 in my eyes again, this time not for disappointment but for 39 . Although I had struggled with silent 40 toward my stepson, Brett had seen only my actions. Love is action. We may not always have positive feelings about certain people in our lives, but we can love them.
