Most of my classmates had finished their work, but I was still workingon the third problem. No one seemed to have as much trouble as I. My neighbor even said how easy the lesson was.I had told myself since then that I would never be good at math. So all through middle school and high school I spent my time on other subjects in math classes, thinking my math grades would never be high even if I tried my best.One day we started to study statistics(统计学) in class. I decided to pay attention to it，but my mind just turned off at the sight of numbers. After class my teacher pointed out my problem: I didnt like numbers. The reason was that over the years I had told myself not to like math.I suddenly understood what I had been doing to myself. Perhaps math really came harder for me than it did for others. but over the years I had built this little difficulty into “a big stone. Saying l couldnt do it was only an excuse to daydream.

Its one word you can depend on when youre in a library or a bookstore. All you need to remember is “ P. I. C. K. “ P. I. C. K. ” stands for Purpose, Interest，Comprehend, and Know the Words.P= Purpose. Why are you looking for a bookreading for pleasure or trying to learn something? Reading silently for yourself or reading out loud for someone else? Most often, your purpose for reading can be found with a quick answer.I = Interest. With the many millions of books on shelves today, there must be something out there for everyone.

Its important to choose a book right for your level or ability. How to choose such a book? If you read books at Level A, for example, youd better not choose a book at Level D. If the book isnt labeled(贴标签）with a level, you can open the book and choose a pagethen you can decide whether the book is at a right level for you by asking yourself：Did I understand what I just read?Do I remember what I read?Was I able to read most of the words?This brings us to our final letter； K=Know the Words. Readers should be able to understand most of the words on the page. The key is the Five Finger Rule” ： Choose a book you would like to read， look at a page in the middle and put one finger down for every word you dont understand. The “Five Finger Rule” shows a general idea of the relationship between the number of unknown words and the difficultylevel of a book；0 1 unknown word = too easy2 3 unknown words=just right45 unknown words = too difficultYou want to know how to choose books right for you一books that are enjoyable， fun and exciting.
