　　A

　　Hey, I’ve started reading Heaven is for Real.

　　One day, one of my dear friends called me and said, “Lisa, you have to read it. There is one chapter (章) that was written just for us!”

　　So I’m reading it. It’s not easy. I don’t know about you, but for me, between working full-time and looking after two little kids, reading is a luxury (奢侈品).

　　Hey, you want to read it, too? So we could talk about it here?

　　Lisa

　　A friend recommended (推荐) this book to me months ago. I laughed, cried and finished it in a day! I couldn't wait to see what happened next. What's more, it helped to answer some questions I'd always been interested in. Now, the book is traveling in my town!

　　Sandy

　　I would like to read this book with you! Although my grandpa lent it to me a few weeks ago, I began to read it last night. Guess what? I couldn't put it down and had tears (眼泪) running down my face on every page! I'll read up to Chapter 2 tonight!

　　Summer

　　Lisa, I'm not one who likes to sit down and read. But my mom told me that I had to read this book, so I decided to give it a try. Once I started reading, I couldn't put it down. I finished it in three days. It's a wonderful story and it will fill you with love and hope.

　　Amber

　　I'm not a good reader and don't have much time to read with three kids at home. But it only took me a week to read it. It is easy to read and I couldn't put it down. I even talked about it with my 12-year-old daughter and now she has started to read it!

　　Can you become a pilot or a pianist? Perhaps. The most important thing is to find something that you love to do and makes you happy.

　　(56)_________ We all know people who are great at drawing or good at sports, don’t we? They are the lucky ones who have a natural talent for what they love to do. But that doesn’t mean you can’t find anything you’re good at. It’s just that you might have to look for it a little bit harder.

　　(57)_________ Developing a new talent takes time and lots of effort (努力), so don’t worry if you haven’t found out yours by the end of a day, a week or even a month. Finally you will get it.

　　(58)_________ The more interest you have in a hobby, the more you’ll want to keep doing it. And the more you keep doing it, the better you’ll become.

　　(59)_________ You shouldn’t say that you can’t write a book or take amazing photos if you’ve never really tried. Even the famous writer had to start somewhere (在某处). Make today your day to try something new.

　　(60)_________ Do you have an aunt who can help you start playing tennis? Is your grandma good at making cakes? Sometimes you don’t need to look further than your own families to see who can teach you something useful.
