A small cloud moves slowly through the air in a hospital operating room （手术室）.In the room a patient with cancer（癌症），lies on a table.The cloud is all around the patient，covering her body and filling her lungs（肺）.The cloud is not smoke.It is made of millions of nano﹣robots（纳米机器人）.These tiny robots move from cell （细胞） to cell in the patient's body，killing the cancer.

    Fighting cancer with nano﹣robots is only an idea today，but scientists say that it could be possible in the future.Using nano﹣robots for good purposes such as fighting the illness or repairing the environment may be the way to many of today's problems.

    However，nano﹣robots could be a dangerous risk as well.Because nano﹣robots are so tiny，they will have to work in large teams of many thousands to many millions.For this reason，nano﹣robots will have to be programmed（被编程）to build themselves.Scientists will not have the ability to build millions of nano﹣robots one by one.

    This ability to re﹣produce is making some scientists worried.What will happen if something goes wrong in the programming？Quite a lot of crazy nano﹣robots would be far worse than any illness.Some people think that if they get out of control，nano﹣robots could make the Earth gone.

    What should be done？Should we continue researching nano﹣robots or should we search for other methods？This is one of the many difficult decisions that we have to make in the future.

"She liked writing down her mistakes and seldom made the same mistakes twice"，said one of her middle school teachers.

Do you like reading？It is very important for us to learn or study through reading.But now many students say they don't have enough time to read.So we need some skills to help read more in less time while we are doing some reading in class.Here are two skills that I think are very good.

    Preview（预读）—if your article is long as well as difficult，such as long magazine articles or science reports，previewing is very useful for you to get a general idea.

    Here is how to preview.

    ●Read the first two paragraphs and the last two paragraphs carefully.

    ●Then read only the first sentence of the other paragraphs.

    Of course you can't get all the details by previewing.It tells you not to spend time on things you don't really want or need to read.

    Skim（浏览）—if your article is short and simple，like popular magazines or the sports of your daily paper，skimming is a good way to get a main idea.Here's how to skim.

    ●Get your eyes to move fast.Sweep across each line.

    ●Pick up only a few key words in each line

    Everybody skims differently.You and I may not pick up the same words when we skim the same passage，but perhaps we'll get the idea of what it's all about.

    I wish all of us could read more books and enjoy reading every day!
