I have many things in common with my dad, like music taste and sense of humor, but sadly reading isn’t one of them. I can happily spend a whole day with a book, but my dad can’t read a book for longer than about 5 minutes. He reads emails, websites and documents for work, but not books. I think that siting down to read for just 15minutes a day is a good way to relax,So I introduce him to reading.Giving yourself a goal or challenge is a good way to change a habit or achieve something,so why not try to create a new habit of reading?
My dad is by no means the only person who avoids books. I know lots of people would rather relax on their computers or in front of the TV. Everyone is different and has their own interests, but I think there are lots of benefits to reading, which screen-based activities don’t offer.
Firstly, it’s better for your eyes. Looking at screens can be very stressful for you eye muscles, and clearly you should avoid looking at screens for an hour before bed, to get a good night’s sleep.
One thing I personally love about reading, is being transported to another world—I often forget the time or things that are going on around me! Reading is a great way to switch off before you go to bed, because you think more about the world of the book, rather than the real world and the problems you have during the day, and you can truly relax. While watching a film,I often talk to my flatmates,send texts,or cut my nails,A book,on the other hand,commands your full attention.

At least once each winter I manage to get a good flight in the middle of a snowstorm. Last Sunday was that flight. My gliding(滑翔的) partners had looked at the weather reports of showers and decided to stay at home. People say that you shouldn’t fly by yourself, but on that day I felt the urge to go flying and so headed for my favorite gliding site.
I had the mountain ridge to myself. After a smooth lift-off, I floated stably in the breeze, feeling at peace with myself and the world. I looked across the valley to Bedford and a moment later saw the town disappear in a band of snow that was moving towards me.
The breeze remained strong enough for flying and I knew that as long as the visibility was good, it was OK for me to stay in the air. The snow moved in and swirled around me. It was a light dry snow. The day was already very quiet but, somehow, the light snow made it even more silent. I felt like a snowflake.
Two bald eagles joined me. They didn’t pay me any attention and spent a few minutes flying around the ridge before disappearing. I flew through another band of snow. I had been flying for about 45 minutes when I next looked across the valley. I could see there were more bands of snow to come and the breeze was dying too.
It was time to go home, get in a hot bath and warm up. I couldn’t wait to tell my gliding partners that they had missed out on a perfect flight.
1.Why did the author’s gliding partners refuse to fly on that day?
A. They preferred to fly alone
B. The weather did not permit
C. They did not like winter flights
D. The equipment was not adequate
2.Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word “” in Paragraph 3?
A. Weather
B. Skill
C. Possibility
D. View
3.What can be inferred from the passage?
A. The bald eagle can cause damage to the author’s flight
B. The author will land and go home after the snow stops
C. Brand of snow will be a great threat to the author’s flight
