Reading in 0ur Life
I’m fond of reading. In my opinion, books аre а source of emotional
inspiration and romantic feelings. Reading is very useful, because books
enrich our experience with that of the other people. Besides, books help me
to continue my own education.
I’m sure that а reader lives а richer life than а non-reader. The time
spent on а good book is never wasted. Reading is а rewarding pastime. But
some people think, that the tempo of modern life is too fast to waste time
on reading. They are sure that books have begun to lose their prestige and
value. I disagree.
I enjoy books of different genres: love and detective stories, thrillers
and historical novels, tales, works after classical and modern writers. I’m
а great lover of the English and American literature. Among my favorite
writers are W. Shakespeare and Ch. Dickens, J. Galsworthy and А. Cronin, J.
London and Е. Hemingway to name only а few. I read them in translation and
try to read in the original.
I read books after Russian and Belarusian writers, too. We can say that L.
Tolstоу, D. Dostoevsky, А. Chekhov, А.Pushkin are as popular as they used
tо be. Their works have stood the test of time. My favorite modern writers
are V.Karatkevich and Е Solzhenitsyn.
I try tо get acquainted with popular works and best-sellers. Luckily there
is а big choice of various books in book shops and stalls.
I can' t imagine my life without reading.
«Except а living man there is nothing more wonderful than а book», said one
clever man. And I share his opinion. Books teach us what is right and what
is wrong, to understand the world and people in it, they mould our
character and at the same time tell us exciting stories.
