[填空题]
All of us who live a busy life may ask this question: how can
I find time to read The answer may be 15 minutes a day at any time. No
universal formula can be prescribed. Each of us must find our own 15-minutes
period each day. It is better if it is regular.
The only
requirement is the will to read. With it you can find the 15 minutes no matter
how busy the day is. And you must have the book at hand. Not even seconds of
your 15 minutes should be wasted when you start to read. Set the book out in
advance. Put it into your pocket when you dress. Put another book beside your
bed. Place one in your bathroom. Keep one near your dining table.
You can’t escape reading 15 minutes a day, and that means you will read
half a book a week, 2 books a month, 20 a year, and 1,000 or more in a life time
reading. It’s an easy way to become well read.

When she returned, she found the packet had been removed. Confused(疑惑的), she set down her drink and went back to the kitchen for more biscuits, only to return to find that her drink had disappeared. Up to then she had guessed that everyone in my family held onto their drinks so as not to make water rings on the end tables. Now she knows better.
