今年世界读书日这天网上展开了关于浅阅读的行动。甲：什么是浅阅读？乙：就是追求简单轻松，实用有趣的阅读。联合国教科文组织选择4月23日的灵感来自于一个美丽的传说。4月23日是西班牙文豪塞万提斯的忌日，也是加泰罗尼亚地区大众节日“圣乔治节”。传说中勇士乔治屠龙救公主，并获得了公主回赠的礼物——一本书，象征着知识与力量。每到这一天，加泰罗尼亚的妇女们就给丈夫或男朋友赠送一本书，男人们则会回赠一枝玫瑰花。实际上，同一天也是莎士比亚出生和去世的纪念日，又是美国作家纳博科夫、法国作家莫里斯 德鲁昂、冰岛诺贝尔文学奖得主拉克斯内斯等多位文学家的生日，所以这一天成为全球性图书日看来“名正言顺”。
Light Reading — "A: What is light reading? B: It is reading for the purpose of relaxation, interest, and practicality. UNESCO's selection of April 23 for world reading day arose out of a beautiful legend: April 23 is the date that famed Spanish writer Miguel Cervantes died, and it is also St. George's Day, celebrated in Catalonia. The legend goes that the knight George slew a dragon, rescued a princess, and was granted a gift in return: a book, representing knowledge and power. Every year on this day, Catalonian women will give a book to their husband or boyfriend, and the men will give a rose in return. Actually, the same day is the date of Shakespeare's birth and death, and is the birthday of authors such as William Faulkner, Maurice Druon, and Halldó Kiljan Laxness, so it is a fitting and proper choice for world reading day."

丹麦人钓鱼材料作文：一位丹麦人钓鱼，鱼钓上来后，他用尺量了一下尺寸，觉得鱼太小，就放了回去，准备等鱼长大了再钓。丹麦人去钓鱼会随身带一把尺子，钓到鱼，常常用尺子量一量，将不够尺寸的小鱼放回河里。他们说：“让小鱼长大不更好吗？”两千多年前，我国孟子曾说过：“数罟不入洿池，鱼鳖不可胜食也。”意思是，不要用细密的渔网在池塘里捕捞小鱼，这样才会有更多的鱼。实际上，其中的道理也贯穿在我们现实生活中的许多方面。
Danish fishermen — "When Danes go fishing, they carry with them a ruler. When they catch a fish, they will measure it and toss it back if it is not long enough. They say, "Isn't it better to let the little ones grow up?" More than two thousand years ago in our country, Mencius said, "If fine nets do not enter the pools, there will be more fish and turtles than can be eaten." And in fact this principle runs throughout many areas of our lives."

角色转换之间。（传说有的雏鸟长大后，会衔食喂养衰老的母鸟。人们把此现象称为“反哺”。人类社会也存在类似现象。年轻一代对年长一代的文化影响被称之为“文化反哺”。千百年来，在以父辈对子辈施教为主流的正统传承方式下，文化反哺犹如潜流引而不现，但在迅疾变化的当今社会，年轻人获得了前所未有的反哺能力。他们在科学知识、价值观念、生活方式、审美情趣等各个方面，越来越明显地影响着年长一代，施教者与受教者之间，角色常常发生转换。)
As Roles Change — "When fledglings grow up, they are said to feed their aging parents with food from their own mouths. This is known as "reverse feeding". Similar phenomena exist in human society. The cultural influence of the younger generation on its elders is known as "reverse cultural feeding." For thousands of years, under the orthodox traditional model of children receiving instruction from their parents, the undercurrent of reverse cultural feeding was not obvious. But in today's rapidly-changing society, young people have a reverse feeding ability unprecedented among earlier generations. Their scientific knowledge, values, lifestyles, aesthetics and interests, are exerting a growing influence on their elders, leading to constant changes in the roles of instructor and instructed."

自主命题作文（孙悟空的筋斗云，哪吒的风火轮，都是神奇想象的产物，寄寓了人类渴求飞速行进的美好愿望。谁能想到，晚清幻想小说《新中国》预言百余年后在上海陆家嘴一带举办万国博览会，法国科幻小说家凡尔纳梦想“从地球到月球”，在今天会成为现实？幻想源自人类的求知本能，展现了人类非凡的想象力。幻想推动现实，幻想照亮生命，幻想是快乐的源泉。）
Fantasy — "Sun Wukong somersault cloud and Nezha's Wind Fire Wheels are products of fantasy bearing humanity's dream to fly through the air. Who would have thought that the Fair of 10,000 Nations in Shanghai's Lujiazui district, described in the late-Qing fantasy novel New China, and the journey "From the Earth to the Moon" dreamt up by French science fiction novelist Jules Verne would become reality today? Fantasy arises from the human instinct to seek out knowledge and is an expression of humanity's uncommon imagination. Fantasy motivates reality, fantasy illuminates life, fantasy is the source of happiness…"

Recovering childhood — "Why do we want to recover childhood? Because society is too utilitarian, children have too much pressure, and childhood ends too early. Society needs innocence and required a return to childhood."

Later on, a friend chanced across the things they had compiled, and arranged with a publisher to have it published, becoming what we know as Grimm's Fairy Tales."

《幸福是____》（幸福是一个永恒的话题，它真实地填充着我们的生活。材料1：2009年11月19日中国青年报做的关于“幸福和屋子的关系”的在线调查显示，八成中国被调查者以为“幸福和屋子有关系”，不过对此结果，日本网友的意见大相径庭，约九成以上日本网友以为幸福和屋子没有关系。材料2：一位哲学家不小心掉进了水里，被救上岸后，他说出的第一句话是：呼吸是一件多么幸福的事，活着就是幸福，但为什么还有那么多的人为了“所谓的幸福”葬送了自己。材料3：有人认为：人生的幸福最浅层的是欲望、物质带来的，欲望和物质的人生是永不能满足的。材料4：有人认为：每个人都在追求幸福，但你不能为了追求自己的幸福而坑害了别人，甚至坑害了国家。）
Happiness is ____ — (1) A poll on November 19, 2009 showed that 80% of Chinese respondents felt that happiness was connected to a house; more than 90% of Japanese respondents felt there was no connection. (2) A philosopher fell into the water, and after he was hauled ashore, the first thing he said was "Breathing is such a happy thing“. Living is happiness. But why do so many people ruin themselves for "so-called happiness"? (3) "At its most superficial, happiness comes from desire and material objects, but these can never be satisfied in life." (4) "Everyone pursues happiness, but in the pursuit of your own happiness, you must not harm others, or harm the country."
