第二節(jié)：讀寫任務(wù)(共1小題，滿分25分)

閱讀下面的短文，然后按照要求寫一篇150詞左右的英語短文。

Reading is a pleasure of the mind, which means that it is a little like a sport: your eagerness and knowledge and quickness make you a good reader. Reading is fun, not because the writer is telling you something, but because it makes your mind work. Your own imagination works along with the author’s or even goes beyond his. Your experience, compared with his, brings you to the same or different conclusions, and your ideas develop, as you understand his.

Reading can only be fun if you expect it to be. If you concentrate on books somebody make you read, you probably won’t have fun. But if you put down a book you don’t like and try another till you find one that means something to you, and then relax with it, you will almost have a good time and if you become, as a result of reading, better, wiser, kinder, or more gentle, you won’t have suffered during the process.

Unfortunately, with TV broadcasting 24 hours a day, many people have lost interest in reading. Whenever they are free and have some leisure time, they turn on the TV and watch whatever is on. It’s a pity that children today have far less interest in books than a TV set.

Answer 1

Reading or Watching

Reading, which makes our mind work, is fun and valuable to us. However, it’s a pity that many people, having lost interest in it, prefer watching TV to reading.

I share the same feeling with the author. I think reading is a wonderful thing and I like reading very much. Firstly, reading is the chief means of acquiring knowledge. Books are a treasure house of human wisdom. Almost all great people are great readers. Reading makes a person wise, noble, polite and useful. What’s more, reading can be a good means of recreation. If the book is interesting or suits you, you can find pleasure in reading it. Last but not the least, reading develops one’s imagination. In short, reading is an active and useful activity for everybody.

But today there is too much for us to watch on TV. There is no doubt that programs are lively and interesting, some of which bring us fun and make us relaxed. However, most TV programs are recreational and imaginary. They are not based on the real life. What’s worse, some violence does exist in some pragrammes. With harmful effects, such programmes can not help to enrich our knowledge.

In my opinion, reading benefits us greatly. I hope people, especially children, will read more and watch less TV.
