    Reading is a good habit, but the problem is, there's too much to read these days, and too little time to read every word of it. There are hundreds of skills to help you read more in less time. Here are two skills that I think are especially good.

Preview—if it's long and hard. Previewing is especially useful for getting a general idea of heavy reading like long magazine articles and business reports.

Here's how to preview.

    Read the first two paragraphs and the last two paragraphs carefully.

    Then read only the first sentence of the other paragraphs.

    Previewing doesn't give you all the details. It keeps you from spending time on things you don't really want--or need--to read.

    Skim—if it's short and simple. Skimming is a good way to get a general idea of light reading like popular magazines or the sports and entertainment of your daily paper.

    Here's how to skim.

    Get your eyes to move fast. Sweep them across each line.

    Pick up only a few key words in each line.

    Everybody skims differently. You and I may not pick up the same words when we skim the same piece, but we'll get a similar idea of what it's all about.

My grandparents lunch at home.

    Once a man's ship broke(打破) into pieces(碎片) on a small, lonely island(孤岛). There was no one living on this island, so he hoped that someone could come to save him. Every day he watched the sea, but no ships ever appeared(出现). The man was very sad(难过的).

    He thought he should do something to save himself. He built a little house out of wood(木头). But one day, after looking for food, he arrived home to find his little house on fire. The smoke rose(升起) to the sky. And everything was lost. He was full of sadness and anger(愤怒). "God, how could you do this to me?" he cried.

    Early the next day, however, the sound of a ship woke(唤醒) him up. The ship was coming to the island. It came to save him. "How did you know I was here?" the man asked those people. "We saw your smoke signal(信号)," they answered.

    It is easy to get discouraged when things are going badly. But we shouldn't lose heart(失去信心), because hope is at work in our lives. Remember, next time your little house is burning(烧毁) to the ground, it just may bring you better luck.

    Cars make our lives more convenient. But they can also be a problem. For example, fossil fuel (化石燃料) cars mainly cause air pollution.

    To improve the environment, many countries are developing electric vehicles(EVs 电动车). Among them, China is taking a leading role and has created the world's largest EV market.

    Last year, over 40% of the 753,000 EVs sold in the world were sold in China, more than twice as many as the number sold in the United States. "Filling up a fossil fuel car with gas is more expensive than charging an electric car," said Wu Hao, who bought an electric car this year

    However, there are still some problems. It can be hard to find charging piles(充电桩) and the cars can't go far before needing to be recharged. Some of these problems are being solved. In 2014, China had 31,000 charging piles. Now China has the world's largest EV charging network, with more than 167,000 charging piles in total.

    Developing EVs is one of many efforts that China has made to cut down pressure on its environment after the government promised to stop the increase in the emission (排放) of Coz by 2030.

    "As China goes, so will the worlds car industry," The Wall Street Journal said. China has taken a leading role in the world's electric vehicle industry.
