29、)七、Text 1(总题数：1，分数：10.00)Suppose a teacher can not tell teaching from learning, he or she will probably just do the thing for the students which can be done by the students themselves.

Douglas has pointed out that one of the main rule of teaching instructions, “Make learning to read easy, which means making reading a meaningful ,enjoyable and frequent experience for children. “
33、 Learning to read will become easier when teachers create an environment where the students are given the opportunity to deal with the problem of learning to read through reading. The teacher and learner should play their different roles properly, in this way much of the stress for both can be remov
