Do you know that some people don’t do their reading tasks? It’s shocking, but it is true. Some students don’t even read short texts that they are given in class. There are many reasons for this. They may be bored. They may be unwilling to focus. They may be unconfident readers. Whatever the reason is, it has to stop today. Here’s why.
Reading makes your mind active. It is like exercise for your brain. When people are old, their muscles begin to get weaker and their strength leaves them. Exercise can prevent this loss. The same thing happens to people’s brains when they get older. Brain power declines with age. Reading helps your brain work better and prevent these declines.
Read everything that you can get at school. Reading enlarges your vocabulary. Even a “boring” text can teach you new words. Having a larger vocabulary will help you better express yourself. You will be able to speak, write, and think more intelligently. It opens your mind. What’s boring about that?
Reading helps you become open to new ideas and perspectives (视角). Reading can change the way that you understand the world. It can give you a wider perspective on things. You can learn how people live in faraway places. You can learn about cultures different from your own. It can make your mind more knowledgeable.
Reading is good for your state of mind. Reading can lower your stress levels and help you relax. You can get away from your troubles for a moment when you read. So next time you get a reading task, take as much as you can from it. Squeeze (挤压) it for every drop of knowledge that it has.
