To encourage reading,a Chinese company placed over 10,000 books around the underground,in taxis and on planes in Beijing,Shanghai and Guangzhou.The activity earned the support of many Chinese stars.The “book-dropping battle”,however,won little praise.Instead,the movement drew much criticism(批評).

Some books were left untouched.Around the underground,passengers thought the books were left there to save the seats.Some books were taken away by cleaners.People also complained that they couldn’t get to the books—the carriages were too crowded.

The movement led to a hot debate.

Most people thought it could do little to encourage reading.“I think the best result is that people take selfies(自拍)when they pick up the books and write a post in WeChat.After that,they will just bring the books back home and place them on their bookshelves,” wrote one Weibo user.

Some pointed out that while Watson was a great reader,the Chinese stars who supported the movement didn’t seem to be reading much.Isn’t it embarrassing that the movement is supported by stars who don’t read a lot?

Murong Xuecun is a famous Chinese writer.He thought the book-sharing campaign was not at all a bad thing.“In the past years,the Chinese economy(經(jīng)濟(jì))has been developing rapidly.Everybody is busy with work.They don’t have time for reading,” said Murong.“However,just because Chinese people don’t read regularly,it doesn’t mean we should do nothing to encourage reading,” Murong added.

You don’t have to be a weatherman to tell people about the weather.If you notice the animals,the sky and the world around you,you can predict weather on your own.

Examine the moon or sun,but do not look at the sun directly or it will hurt your eyes seriously.If you see a ring around the sun or moon,then warm weather follows.A golden ring around the moon warns us that a storm is on the way.A watery yellow sunset is a sign that rain may be near.Feel the direction of the wind.A wind blowing from the east shows that a storm will probably happen.A wind from the west means a sunny day.Monitor the clouds.There are three things about clouds you should look for:movement,color,and change.As a rule,the higher the clouds,the better the weather.And the lower the clouds,the worse the weather will be.

The rainbow has a message,too.If you see the sun in the east and a rainbow in the west,the rain may be coming your way.If the sun is in the west and the rainbow is in the east,the rain will be moving away from you.Look at your shoes as you walk through the grass in the morning.If the grass is wet with dew(露珠),then you can expect dry weather.But if the grass is dry,then it will be wise of you to take your umbrella.

1.The underlined word predict probably means in the passage.

A. 觀察 B. 研究 C. 預(yù)測 D. 改善
