Despite the promising publishing industry in China today, many Chinese people spend little time reading. Some of them read just to kill time or prepare for the tests rather than enjoy the reading itself. As far as I am concerned , Chinese people don’t read as much as they used to for the following reasons. For one thing, people have too much going on in their mind as China is now experiencing great changes, so it has become difficult for them to enjoy reading quietly; for another, with heavy work load, people in China only read when they need something for practical use or something relaxing to keep them away from working pressure. Personally, reading is of great significance in life. It not only provides a source of satisfaction and pleasure, but also serves as a means to seek information and to acquire, develop and apply knowledge. Besides, people can read to enhance language proficiency and to broaden life experience as well. I myself have improved English a lot through reading. At the beginning, I thought it difficult to read English novels but gradually, my language proficiency was enhanced before I realized it. Personally, it will make a great difference by reading. 【写作内容】 以约30个词概括上文的主要内容. 然后以约120个词就“阅读的意义”这一话题发表你的看法,并包括以下要点: 你认为现在中国人不如以前喜欢阅读的原因是什么? 你觉得阅读重要吗?为什么? 以你或他人的经历举例论证你的观点。 【写作要求】 1. 在作文中可以使用自己亲身的经历或虚构的故事,也可以参照阅读材料的内容,但不得直接引用原文中的句子; 2. 作文中不能出现真实姓名和学校名称。 【评分标准】 概括准确,语言规范,内容合适,篇章连贯。
