听力原文: Some children wish to be writers some day, They mean that they want to write stories or books which many persons will read. I would like to remind them that they will need to be good readers and to read a great deal in order to be good writers.
Nearly all great writers were read too long before they started to school, and have been reading for hours and hours every day since they became good readers. Instead of watching TV in the evening, they spend much of their spare time reading books.
If you are a good reader, it won't take you long to do the reading homework your teacher asks you to do. Then you will have time to read other books for fun. Because you read so well, you keep looking for more books to read.
While making up your mind to become a good writer, you had better say to yourself. "I must read more and more if I am really to become a good writer."

Republicans and Democrats argue over whose taxes should be cut the most and which projects should be funded, but under public pressure to do something, they usually find some mutually acceptable midpoint and enact a stimulus package. This time, though, don't expect that to be the end of the story — because the coming recession will not be normal, and our economy is not fundamentally sound. This time around, the nation will have to craft new versions of some of the reforms that Franklin Roosevelt created to steer the nation out of the Great Depression.
