Okay, maybe some people are like me, enjoying reading.

If you go to a bookstore, you would see two kinds of books in the bookstore.  One

is called paperback.  Paperback books are smaller, and it's more portable, so you

can bring it with you, especially what you are reading in a car.  And the other

kind is bigger.  They're called  hardcover. Hardcover books are bigger.  So they're

better for collection.  And you can put them on the shelf for display.  If you are

in the bookstore, and you want to choose a good book to read.  There is actually

one thing you would definitely do.  That is to browse the book.  Browse means to

quickly flip through the pages, so that you can get a rough idea of what the

book is all about.  After you start reading a book, it's almost not possible

for you to finish the whole book in one time.  You need a bookmark.  A bookmark is a

piece of paper that you leave in between the pages.  The next time you pick up the

book, you can start from where you left it.  What if you don't have a bookmark

with you.  You can actually dog-ear the page.  To dog-ear means to flip down the

corner of the page, so that you mark the page for the next time you're reading

the book.  Sometimes you're in the bookstore,

and you see different books under the same title.  It's called a series.  So when

you enjoy the first book, you won't be worried about having nothing to read the

next time.  That's it for today.  I'll see you next time.  Bye.
