I personally think that reading is a very important
activity in our life. Why do I say
so? Firstly, by reading we can get a lot
of knowledge about many things in the world such as Science, technology.
Sports, arts, culture, etc written in either books, magazine, newspaper, etc.
Secondly, by reading we can get a lot of news and
information about something happening in any parts of the world which can we
see directly.
Another reason, reading can give us pleasure
too. When we are tired, we read books,
newspaper or magazine on the entertainment coloumn such as comedy, short story,
quiz, etc. To make us relaxed.
The last, reading can also take us to other parts of
the world. By reading a book about Irian
Jaya we may feel we’re really sitting in
the jungles not at home in our rooms.
From the facts above, it’s obvious that everyone
needs to read to get knowledge, information and also entertainment. Or in summary we can say reading is truly
important in our life.
