She is a Real Estate Agent. How reading effects ef-fects her life is she has to read things on the computer. She has to read things people write to her.

When she read to our class, she read with a lot of expression and feeling. When she read, it felt like you were actually actual-ly there in that book. One of the books she read was "Web Files." Pat is a great reader. We asked her the same questions ques-tions as the other readers. She is a true reader. She told us, "If there wasn't a library, and there were no books, I just wouldn't feel whole." Now you see that reading effects everybody's lives and jobs. If there wasn't reading, there would be no life. Reading is very important! If you can't find a book at home, go to the library. There are all sorts of books-fantasy, fiction, history and a lot more. So if you already read, keep it up and teach others how to read. Reading can take you anywhere you want to go. If you're sad you can escape into a book. Keep on reading.

UV rays damage skin cells, which can lead to three types of skin cancer: basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma and melanoma. Fortunately, skin cancers are preventable and highly curable if found and treated early. Protecting your skin from UV rays is a must all year round, not just in the summer months. UV rays penetrate cloud covers and are not affected by temperature. tempera-ture. UV radiation is also reflective reflec-tive - scattered by different surfaces. sur-faces. Snow, for example, can reflect as much as 80 percent of UV radiation and ' UV levels increase significantly as altitude increases. Winter sports such as skiing present an opportunity for UV exposure as intense as a day at the beach. Feeling pale? Winter trips to tanning booths expose you to ultraviolet rays just as the sun does. Having a tan, natural or artificial, is a sign that the sun has already damaged your skin. People taking winter cruises or tropical vacations should also use caution. Sand may reflect as much as 15 percent of UV rays and sea foam as much as 25 percent. While the sun may not climb as high during the winter months, UV levels are still strong during mid-day and the sun is highest near the equator. Several risk factors increase ready to remodel?

'- Wear, protective clothing such as hats and long-sleeved shirts that block the sun's rays. - Protect children from the sun's rays as soon as they are born. The damaging effects of radiation can begin in childhood. Be . careful when taking certain medications that may cause the skin to burn more easily. Check with your doctor or pharmacist to determine if your medication could be a problem. - Avoid sun lamps and tanning booths.
