One possible version: People are concerned that we seem to spend more time watching TV than reading books. “If reading books so important, how come you never see people on television doing it?” What can you say if challenged by the little innocent girl in the picture? Unfortunately the little girl has found out that in modern life TV plays such an important role that we seldom have time for books. More and more “television time” or even “Internet time” is taking the place of “reading time”, which does more harm than good to us. Reading is more important to everyone, especially us students. Books help us have access to all the great knowledge of mankind. With a good book in our hand, we will not feel lonely, as we can make friends with the various characters in books. Through books , we can also learn about people and places from other parts of the world. It is my firm belief that reading is one of the greatest pleasures in life and books, rather than the television, will remain our friend. |
