This new world can be similar to the one we are living in, or it can be very _46_. Some stor
16、ies are told _47_ they were true. Real people who live in a _48_ world do real things; in other words, the stories are about people just like us doing what we do. Other stories, such as the Harry Potter books, are not _49_ . They are characters and creatures that are very different from us and do th
17、ings that would be _50_ for us.But there is more to books and writing than this. If we think about it, even realistic writing is only _51_. How can we tell the difference between what is real and what is not real? For example, when we read about Harry Potter ,we _52_ seem to learn something about th
18、e real world. And when Harry studies magic at Hogwarts, he also learns more about his real life than _53_ . Reading, like writing, is an action. It is a way of _54_ . When we read or write something ,we do much more than simple look at words on a page. We use our _55_ -which is realand our imaginati
19、onwhich is real in a different way - to make the words come to life in our minds.Both realism and fantasy(幻想) _56_ the imagination and the “magic” of reading and writing to make us think. When we read _57_ realistic, we have to imagine that the people we are reading about are just like us, even thou
20、gh we _58_that we are real and they are _59_ . It sounds _60_ ,but it works. When we read, we fill in missing information and _61_about the causes and effects of what a character does. We help the writer by _62_ that what we read is like real life. In a way, we are writing the book, too.Most of us p
21、robably dont think about what is going on in our _63_ when we are reading. We pick up a book and lose _64_ in a good story, eager to find out what will happen next. Knowing how we feel _65_ we read can help us become better readers, and it will help us discover more about the real magic of books.46.
