学术词汇使用较丰富，拼写做的很棒；作者句法不错，但是文章整体句子稍微偏短；文章层次不够分明，缺少组织，需注意文章整体的组织结构。

　　Reading selectively or extensively? What is your choice? Perhaps each of us has our choice. 　　Some people think we should read selectively, for there are so many books for us to read. Thousands of new books are published every day. How can we cover all these books in our limited time? Besides, not all the books are worth reading. 　　Some people, on the contrary, choose to read extensively. They think that reading extensively can broaden their horizons. Through reading extensively they can learn something about their ancestors; through reading extensively they can get insight of great men. Reading extensively can also enable us to adapt to the fast developing society. Because we are living in a knowledgeexploding society, if we don’t read extensively, we can’t get enough information about the modern world, and we can’t keep pace with the society. 　　In my opinion, we should read both selectively and extensively. By reading extensively, we can enrich our knowledge of aspects. By reading selectively, we can focus on and learn well the academic knowledge we’ll need in our future work.
