What would you choose, if you were sitting in front of a TV and there was a book right next to you? The answer will most p___81___ be the TV! Young people would certainly choose the TV, but you will be surprised to find out that the older ones will at least hesitate about choosing it. Why is this? Are the books not as interesting as they used to be? Is it that the world has c___82___ so much in recent years that our habits are not the same anymore?
Nowadays many people have no interest in literature(文学). This may be a possible explanation. Another r___83___ might be the change of lifestyle. We are more l___84___ to visit a club or a bar to relax ourselves after a long day's work, rather than read a book in the comfort of our own homes. People are more outgoing than they used to be. All the stress of work makes us want a quick relaxing means. Perhaps, most of us do not have the p___85___ to read anymore. It is much e___86___ to turn on the TV and watch the latest news around the world than read 19th century literature!
With all the TV programs, every one of us can find an interesting show or movie to watch. What’s better than getting into bed with the remote control and falling asleep whenever you wish? You are the master of all the TV programs. The only disadvantage is that TV will never p___87___ you with all the facts that a book can do. TV is much more superficial than books, even if it does get you relaxed in just a moment!

Her mother told her that she could do whatever she wanted to do.
So at the age of nine, the little girl took off the leg brace, and she tried her best to walk. In four years, she could walk
for some steps, which was a medical wonder. Then this girl had a dream that she would like to be the world’s greatest woman runner.
At the age of 13, she entered a race. She came last. She entered every race in high school, and in every race she came in last. Everyone asked her to stop! However, one day, she came next to last. And then there came a day when she won a race. From then on, she won every race that she entered.
There she was racing against the greatest woman runner of the day, a German girl named Jutta Heine. Nobody had ever beaten Jutta. But in the 100-meter race, she won. She beat Jutta again in the 200-meter race. She had two Olympic gold medals.
Finally came the 400-meter relay. It would be Wilma against Jutta once again. When the third runner handed the baton to Wilma, she was so excited that she dropped it, and Wilma saw Jutta running down the track. It was impossible that anybody could catch Jutta. But Wilma did just that! Wilma had earned three Olympic gold medals.
