1. Introduction
“For many junior middle school students, of the four skills in English learning, reading is the most important one.” (Carrell, Devine and Eskey 1987: 98) Reading is a basic approach for students to master linguistic knowledge and skills, which can improve students’ practical competence. Teaching reading in junior middle schools has been the focus in China. Junior middle school students are energetic and active, and they are interested in new knowledge during their studies. Therefore，they are easy to be distracted when they have English reading comprehension classes, because they are too young to keep close concentration on a reading text for a long time. So, in order to enhance the efficiency and quality of English reading classes, teachers should organize some new and interesting activities for their students.
