There are twenty seven bridges over the River Thames．And the Tower Bridge is the first bridge you have to pass if you go to London from the sea．It is close to the Tower of London，from which it got its name．It is a symbol （象征） of London．

The Tower Bridge was set up over the River Thames in London in 1894and is one of the finest and most famous bridges in the world．It is the only bridge over the Thames that can be raised and opened in the middle．The middle part can be raised to let the huge ships pass．It used to be raised about 50times a day，but now it is raised only 4to 5times a week．If you are lucky enough to see the bridge with its two arms open high in the air，you will never forget it．

The Tower Bridge was first painted chocolate brown．Then in 1977，it was painted red，white and blue．Its picture also appeared in the opening of the 2012Summer Olympic Games held in London．So come to visit the famous bridge．You are sure to have a wonderful experience．

Li Chunlin，a farmer，used to live in a poor village in the north of Shaanxi．In the 1980s，he went to Shenzhen to make a living with his wife．

Years later，they became rich and returned to their hometown．To their surprise，the land around the village was covered with sand．That made them feel sad．After thinking carefully，Li and his wife made up their minds to fight against the sands．

They bought thousands of young trees and planted them around the village．However，only a few survived（存活），because the trees were not regularly watered．But how to get water was a big problem．They dug a well（井） but it became dry soon．Then they asked a drilling team to dig a deep well．Clear water appeared，but their money was used up．They couldn't afford to buy young trees．They went to several banks for help but got nothing．Finally they turned to a friend who was also from the village．The friend had a big business．Learning what they were doing，their friend was moved and decided to do something for their village too．So he offered the money they needed．

Most animals on land are known to us，but many living things underwater are not．Now let's get to know some of them．

Sea cucumber

Sea cucumbers are strange animals living at the bottom of the sea．They wear brown or pale green coats with many sticks up．When summer comes，they stay deep to sleep because they are afraid of heat．And when it is autumn，they move to shallow （浅的） water and get their food．

Pike

The pike is a kind of freshwater fish．They are good swimmers and like swimming near boats，waiting to be fed．They have sharp teeth to catch fishes．When they are young，they live in groups．However，when they grow up，they prefer to live alone．

Cuttlefish

A cuttlefish can swim quite fast，so it is also called rocket（火箭） fish．It has eight arms and two feelers on its head，just around its mouth．It ejects ink （喷墨） when it is in danger．Its meat is delicious，and it is often the first choice for many people．

Octopus

An octopus has long arms，with which to catch food and protect itself．When it is sleeping，one or two of its arms are still on duty，keeping moving．Once it feels something dangerous，it can wake up at once to take action．

Reading makes one wise，but many adults seldom read．They say they are too busy to have time to read．Sure．They have work to do．They have families to support．But these are only excuses．The fact is that they haven't got a reading habit．A reading habit isn't something natural．It needs to be trained．And it's never too late to develop a reading habit．

Scientists believe proper books are very important for children to develop a good reading habit．A book in rich colors and with simple patterns（图案） such as lines and circles is a good choice for babies of three months old．When they reach six months，they will become interested in simple story books in rich colors．

When children get old enough to read by themselves，it's necessary to buy books that are both interesting and right for them to understand．Books which are either too easy or too difficult are not good for kids to keep their reading habits．

Only buying books for children isn't enough．For kids，parents are their first teachers．So parents should read books to set an example．Children will follow them．Scientists say imitatingthe adults is a born skill．And it is the most valuable way for children to learn．This will certainly help them develop a reading habit in the end．

53．According to the writer，many adults seldom read because they 　 　．
