The Benefit of Extracurricular Reading
课外阅读的好处
With the advent of television, computers, and the Internet, reading has become more and more of a rarity.
随着电视、电脑和互联网时代的到来,人们用于阅读的时间越来越少。
However, reading books in one's spare time has many benefits. First of all, unlike television or movies, books alIow you to use your imagination to picture the setting, the characters, and their lives. Secondly, reading can be done anywhere there is enough light. It doesn't require electricity, expensive gadgets, or access to the Internet. Thirdly, while reading can be entertaining, it can also help to expand your knowledge on any number of subjects.
但是,闲暇时间读书会有很多的好处。首先,不同于电视或电影的是,书籍可以让你发挥自己的想象力去描摹背景、人物以及他们的生活。其次,人们可以在任何光线充足的地方阅读书籍,不需要电的供应、昂贵的仪器设备或者网络。再次,读书能怡情博彩,而且可以增长任何学科的知识。
Although fewer people now partake in reading outside the college curriculum, there are plenty of sound reasons for this fact to change. I only hope that we will see an increase in reading outside the college curriculum in the future.(131 words)
虽然课外阅读的人比以前少了,不过有很多合理的理由能够解释这一事实。我只是希望将来更多的人养成课外阅读的习惯。
