The best way to improve your reading skills is to read short stories from real life. I love this book very much. Each story cover with about 120 words only. You can read it and can realize the whole story quickly. In addition, each story features idioms, phrasal verbs and fixed expressions which can help you to step forward for your reading skills.
Here I would like to share one of interesting stories in this book. The topic is Please Get Rid of That Smell! It is winter, Barbara Pridgen, 43, is driving her car. When she turns on the heater, there's a terrible smell in her car. It gets worse and worse. She can't standit! She takes the car to the repair ship. "What's the matter with my car?" she asks. " Can you get rid of this smell?" The mechanic takes a look at the engine. He examines the heating system. Then Barbara screams. She loses it. The mechanic pulls out a big, fat, dead python!
This is the short story, but I can learn a lot of idioms and expressions from it.
