英語除了記單詞，還需要多看多讀，以下是本站網小編整理的關於英語閱讀精選，供大家參閱讀考。
篇一：籃球
Interest in basketball in the United States peaks around three big championship events in the spring: the college championships for men and women in late March or early April and the professional playoffs that climax in June.
But that’s only organized basketball. Informally, the game has been learned by generations of American youths on city playgrounds and schoolyards, on lonely baskets put up in backyards of rural homes and on the driveway basketball courts of countless suburban homes. Here, playing on teams, going one-on-one against a single opponent or just shooting the ball hour after hour alone, some of the finest basketball players have developed their skills to incredible levels.
But as brilliant as some players may be, basketball requires coaching to teach athletes skills they are deficient in and to blend a group of individuals into a team. Styles of coaching vary. Some coaches favor an extremely disciplined game with each player having a specific role while others are more inclined to let their players dictate the style of play.
美國人對籃球的興趣在春季三大錦標賽期間達到高潮。這包括三月底或四月初舉行的大學男籃錦標賽和大學女籃錦標賽，以及在六月份進入決賽高潮的職業籃球賽。
上面說的只是有組織的正式比賽。在市內的運動場和學校的操場上，在農舍後院的簡易籃球筐下，或是在無數市郊住宅的自家車道上劃出的籃球場上，一代代的`美國青少年的學習打籃球。一批最優秀的籃球選手，就是在這種隊與隊的對抗，單與單的較量，或是一個人數小時的投籃練習中，練就一身出神入化的球技的。
儘管有些球員很有天賦，籃球運動還是需要有教練指導的，幫助球員學習他們掌握欠佳的技術，並把一個個球員熔合成一個隊，教練的風格各異。有些教練部署嚴謹，隊員各司其職;有的則傾向於讓隊員去決定比賽的打法和風格。
篇二：生命之堅持
Some people insist that only today and tomorrow matter. But how much poorer we would be if we really lived by that rule! So much of what we do today is frivolous and futile and soon forgotten. So much of what we hope to do tomorrow never happens.
The past is the bank in which we store our most valuable possession: the memories that give meaning and depth to our lives. Those who truly treasure the past will not bemoan the passing of the good old days, because days enshrined in memory are never lost. Death itself is powerless to still a remembered voice or erase a remembered smile. And for one boy who is now a man, there is a pond which neither time nor tide can change, where he can still spend a quiet hour in the sun.
一些人堅持認爲只有今日與明日最重要。可要按這條規則來生活的話，我們將會變得更加可憐。今天我們所做之事有多少是瑣碎無功的，很快就被人遺忘.又有多少我們明天要爲之事將會成爲泡影。 過去是一所銀行。我們將最可貴的財富——記憶珍藏其中，這些記憶賦予我們生命的意義和厚度。真正珍惜過去之人不會爲美好時光逝去而哀嘆。那些珍藏於記憶的時光是永遠不會消失的。死亡本身也無法止住記憶中的聲音，或擦除記憶中的微笑。對於已經長大成人的小男孩來說，那兒將會有一個池塘。它不會因時間和潮汐而改變，可以讓他大繼續在陽光下享受靜謐的時光。
