The Importance of Reading
_Introduction/thesis:_
I personally think that reading is a very important activity in our life. Why do I say so?

Firstly, by reading we can get a lot of knowledge about many things in the world such as
science, technology, sports, arts, culture, written in either books, magazines, newspapers,
etc.
_Argument II:_
Secondly, by reading we can get a lot of news and information about something happening
in any part of the world which we can see directly.

Another reason is reading can give us pleasure too. When we tired, we read books, novels,
comics, newspapers, or magazines in the entertainment column such as comedy, short
stories, quizzes, etc. To make us relaxed.

Lastly, reading can also take us to other parts of the world. By reading a book about Irian
Jaya we may feel we're really sitting in the jungles not at home in our rooms.

information, and entertainment. In summary, we can say reading is truly important in our
