In his bedroom there was a toy steam engine       (buy) by his father as a gift to him. “I will make better use of it,” little Christopher said to himself.

He couldn’t understand his mother’s     (behave).
This teaches Christopher a lesson that anyone      tries to improve anything has to learn: many people don’t like new ideas.

It had to be      honest­to­goodness smile from down deep inside, an outward expression of happiness from within!

Have you ever noticed this phenomenon? Sometimes Chinese English teachers are puzzled by such questions, "Could you please give me some advice     how to improve my reading comprehension?"
Actually, many of the teachers can't give their students      effective way to deal with reading.

"  Frankly, these teachers' good suggestions are only helpful to arouse (激起) students' interest in reading        not helpful to deal with the questions in the examinations of reading comprehension. Personally,      think the skill for reading comprehension should be based on the knowledge of English writing.     the English passages are written under some rules or principles, the science of reading and understanding may have a close relationship with writing. Reading comprehension can't be independent      the knowledge of
writing. So to do better in reading comprehension      ever, we should learn the knowledge of writing, study how questions are designed and the relationship between questions and the reading materials.
