The holiday’s upon us. After months of study, you have some time to yourself. So, why not read a book? Well, some people will say, ‘Why trouble with books? We have the Internet and 16 media that offer a lot more 17 (colour) programs. Books are history!”
But don’t be fooled. There’s still a lot to be said for reading and reading as widely as possible.
One clear reason is that a well-chosen book is a wonderful collection 18 words and expressions, so long as you have a good dictionary, of course. Believe me, it’s far easier to get new English words and expressions from a book or article 19 it is from the TV or the Internet.
But an even more important point is 20 books give you something that modern media simply can not: The webpage is always full of pictures and the text is often designed to make it as easy to read as possible.
Though “easy” may be welcome, 21 (luck) it’s of little use for any long-time development of reading skills and the general language level. For that, there’s still no substitute(替代品) for a book.
But perhaps the best single reason is that simply 22 (choose) what you read and doing it by yourself 23 (mean) that it’s something you do by and for yourself. You can choose what you want to read. It’s hard work, 24 while you are reading, you’ll find that what once 25 (seem) like a duty is now a pleasure.
