Firstly, reading books can let us learn more new knowledge. “The book is the ladder of the
progress of mankind.” (good quote) More readings can help us know more new interesting things.
We can get (这里写 learn 比较好)ideas by reading magazines, we can get wisdoms by reading a
novel, we can also gain useful learning by reading a literary work and we can even know much (a
lot) news from newspapers. Reading will bring many good things in our life.
Secondly, reading books can make us be quiet in any environments and we can be calm in any
situations. In fact, watching TV can help us know about those things as well, but it will make us
shallower. The noisy sounds that come from TV will make us excited, and in that case people would
not be calm and they will watch some irritant (irritating) movie to release their pressures. Also,

other countries’ average reading volume, this is an enormous difference; in Russia, almost every
people can read 55 books each year, and in Israel, the average reading volume is even reached
more than 60 books yearly. The time of reading books has been displaced by playing phones and
watching TV. Especially, children’s reading volume is much less than adults, because they have used
time to watch TV, having wasting (wasted) time when they feel boring that is a very serious problem.
