    When you read to learn English composition, you  41  regard the language as the main thing.
    When you read a story in English, do you read it for the story or for the English? This is a question that is not so foolish  42  it may seem,  43  I find that many students of English  44  far more attention to the story  45  to the English. They read and enjoy and for a long time afterwards remember the story, but do not  46  to study the use of words and phrases in it. For instance, they know the plot of the story  47 , but do not remember a  48  sentence in the story and cannot  49  what preposition is used before or  50  a certain word in the speech of a certain character.
     Of course, it is all right to read and enjoy and remember a story, and so long as one  51 
    to know the story only, one need not  52  about the language. But the case is quite different   53  a student of English. I mean a student of English as distinguished from a reader of stories or  54  is called the general reader. As you may have  55  from the above, a student of English should read very carefully and regard the language as the main thing.
