So I didn't want to get out of the car and just stayed at the wheel when we passed a cafe. Suddenly I1a short old man, covered with some bits of cloth,2with the cold. He was waiting for anyone who would leave him a coin or a cup of3coffee. I asked my husband to4him and hand this old man something. He looked at my husband's face, smiled and said, "Thank you." I felt so happy5I wished the old man could live through the cold night.

  Reading for pleasure is the easiest and the most important way to become a better reader in English. Some students say they don't want to read for pleasure because pleasure reading is too easy. They just want to use their time to learn the rules of the language and new words.

  However, Dr. Krashen, a famous expert on learning languages, says that pleasure reading helps you learn many important things about English. For example, students learn more grammar and more words when they read for pleasure. Also they learn more about good writing.
