　　When you read a story in English，do you read it for the story 11.or for the English language? This is a question which is not so 12.foolish(fool) as it may seem，for I find that many students of English pay 13.more(much) attention to the story than to the English.For instance，they care for how the mystery in the story 14.is settled (settle)，but can not tell what preposition(介词) 15.is used(use) before a certain word in the speech of a certain character.

　　Of course，if you want to know the story only，you need not focus 16.on the language.But a student of English is different from a student of stories or what is called the general reader.17.As you may also have learned from the above，you ought to read not only very 18.carefully(care) but also aloud till you learn the passage by heart and can recite it as if it were your own.On the one hand，this will teach you many useful 19.words(word) and phrases；on the other hand，it will help you to avoid 20.making(make) many mistakes in expression.

　　The American bug could also be a person，referring to someone who was crazy about a particular activity.Although fan became the usual term，sports fans used to be called racing bugs，baseball bugs，and the like.

Or the bug could be a small machine or object，for example，a bug-shaped car.The bug could also be a burglar alarm，from which comes the expression to bug，that is，"to install(安装) an alarm".Now it means a small piece of equipment that people use for listening secretly to
