Maybe
sometimes we think about the question: why do we read? There are no
correct answers for the question. I think, generally, there are
three reasons why we read.
The first one is reading for
survival. This kind of reading serves your
immediate needs of wishes. For example, parents read the label on a
medicine bottle to see if it is suitable for a sick baby and to see
how much to give. They also read the safety regulations on toys to
see if there is any danger for their
child.
The next one is reading for learning
and information, which means
that reading can help extend your general knowledge of the world.
Much of your day-to-day reading, like reading newspapers and
magazines, specialised articles, teaching materials, dictionaries,
is for this purpose.
The last one is reading for
entertainment or pleasure.
Quite differdnt from reading for survival which involves an
immediate reaponse to a given situation, and reading for learning
and information which is also goal-driven, reading for
entertainment is done for its own sake—the readers don’t have to do
it. We read novels, stories and poems as a leisure activity. Many
people have found that reading for pleasure in any language tends
to improve language
fluency.
