times. Therefore, it is important to read and even to get involved, because they rightly say: "possess information - have a situation." But what is the use of reading, and whether it is at all?

First, the continuous reading of trains the brain. When you read, the way of seeing the world changes: you start to dream, to create certain "book" images (places, people, events). In addition, improve memory book, broadens the mind, change the spelling. Yes, that's right: when you read, working visual memory, which will not allow in the future to make a mistake in the lyrics. And yet, the frequent focus on teaching reading a book, and anything at all, increases the diligence and mood.

In - the second, with the reading of books increases your vocabulary, there is a particular way of thinking, whereby thoughts clearly expressed and easy to formulate. You can verify this yourself: simply read some classic. After that, any (even the one who had and "two words could not"), notice how much easier it was to use words to express their thoughts. Notice how it easier to express themselves, to look up words. Note that from his lexicon go different words-parasites.

Third reading - just a fun pastime. That's because it can find new companions, friends, associates or topics of conversation with them. And book lovers are very friendly with them is always easy to talk to. You can spend your free time, while enhancing mood and inspiration. In the extreme case - just enjoy a conversation with the author or his story, a story. Reading is not boring, does not become stale: books-that very much, and each of them is unique.

And finally, fourth: Each reading process, in fact - a little journey through time and distance. The book just breaks different timeframe limitations. Only with it you can feel, to understand the thoughts of thousands of writers from different eras and times. Is it not amazing? The mere reading will understand how Defoe thought what outlook was at Wells, and that puzzled Jansson. The mere reading will allow us to feel, to understand, to feel the writer, even if he is already dead. It is for this reason, any, even very old book - a real "time machine", which you may change your whole life.

Generally reading - an essential process in the formative stages of adult personality. A process that begins in infancy, when the child read aloud his parents or relatives. And ending with a mature age, while experiencing personal problems and spiritual growth, when literature rescues from depression sets morals and ideals. Books and reading have on all of us a huge impact, shape us. They make us human. This - all of their benefits!

bookworm and has no other hobbies.

Chun-To reads one or two books a week.

His favourite books are famous classics. To read more he exchanged books with his classmates. He borrowed books from school. BOOKWORM'S LOVE OF READING
WINS HIM TOP AWARD Thirteen-year-old Chun-To started with one or two books а week but in the past nine months he has read 137 books — enough to win the Education Department's Extensive English Reading Scheme award. Не became the top student from 19 schools participating in the Scheme run by the Institute of Language in Education. The Wong Shiu Chi Secondary School pupil suggested that he probably was а kind of bookworm and that he had few other hobbies, though he did once represent his primary school in а table tennis contest. But most evenings he spent reading to try to improve his English. “Every evening after my homework I set aside one to two hours reading the story books. And when I had finished the ones I borrowed from school I exchanged them with my schoolmates, sо I can read more,” he said. Chun-To said his favourite books were science fiction, detective and horror stories but most of the titles he read for the competition were famous classics. “At first I had tо read twice some of the books I found difficult,” he admitted. The school will not allow students to borrow books over the summer holidays but Chun-To said he hoped tо continue his reading next term. But as for his future career, he was still undecided. “I want to work in an office rather than labouring and I want to be able to use my mind, but it's too early for me to decide what I might do,” he said.

2. What is the difference between them nowadays?
3. What do tabloids write about?
4. What do broadsheets focus on?



In the UK we have two main kinds of newspapers: broadsheets and tabloids.
Originally these names came from the size of the newspapers. A tabloid format newspaper was smaller and the broadsheet format newspaper was bigger.
But nowadays when we talk about tabloids and broadsheets, we talk about two different kinds of newspapers: easy reading and quality newspapers. Tabloids report news in a very condensed form. They write about celebrities, the British Royal Family, sport, crime stories and scandals.
Broadsheets give their readers long, detailed reports on the latest news and focus on more serious things: politics, economy, government, international events, business, culture.
