As the saying goes, “no matter how much one has experienced, he cannot enrich his knowledge without reading books.” When we started school in childhood, we were told that the significant value of reading for our lives.
In the first place, reading is a good and convenient way for us to enrich our knowledge and broaden our horizon. The more books we read, the more knowledge and information we acquire. Therefore, it would be better to read widely and variously. In other words, we should not only read avidly the books about our major, but also spend some time in reading other books cursory so that we can acquire the wider knowledge and broaden our horizon. Second, reading widely is an important way to extend our thoughts and shape our characters. As the more reading we do, we are easier to think creatively and logically, and easier to understand human beings and the world, and easier to become an ideal people. Just as the saying goes, “good books are like a wise and nice man of last generation, who supports me to walk forward, and helps me come to understand the world.” Last but not the least, reading can yet be regarded as a good choice to relax and entertain ourselves. Compared with other ways for entertainment, reading is more convenient and quiet.
In a word, reading is significant in our lives and we should value the chance to read and read more.
