Pleasure reading is the easiest way to become a better reader in English. Some students say they don’t want to read for pleasure. They want to spend their time in doing some exercises on listening, grammar and new words. They say pleasure reading is too easy and it is not helpful.
Many experts (专家) say pleasure reading is very important for learning English. Dr Stephen Krashen, a famous expert on learning languages, says that pleasure reading can help students learn many important things about English. Students learn more grammar and more new words. They can also use excellent sentences when they do some writing. Dr Krashen says pleasure reading helps each student in a different way because each student has his or her own learning skills. Pleasure reading makes it possible for each student to learn what he or she needs.
Pleasure reading is not the same as studying. When you read for pleasure, you can choose your favourite books, and you don’t have to remember everything. You don’t have any pressure because there are no tests about it.
In general, pleasure reading can help students:
● read faster in English; ● find examples of good writing in English;
● learn new words and grammar; ● know about the English native speakers’ reading habits.

My favourite book is The Adventure of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain. Tom lives with his aunt Polly in a quiet street of St Petersburg, Missouri. He's a lively and clever young boy, and he finds himself in many exciting adventures(探险). He runs away with his two friends, Huck Finn and Joe, to an island in the middle of the Mississippi River for several days.
My favourite scene (场景) in the book is when everyone thinks Tom is dead. He decides to go to his own funeral(葬礼). He hides and watches for a time, and then suddenly he appears(出现). Everyone is surprised to see him, but they're also pleased to see him alive.
Tom is the hero of the story, but there are other important characters. Huck is an outsider and everyone is afraid of him. Becky is pretty with fair hair. Joe is Tom's best friend, and Injun Joe is the bad man in the story.
The theme of the story is about children's growing up. It describes how strangers are seen in small towns of America. Finally, it talks about freedom(自由), social rules and how people are punished(被惩罚) for bad behavior(行为).
Mark Twain wrote the story in 1876, but it's still read and loved by people all over the world today. Although it's only a story, Mark Twain wrote it in the everyday English of the southern states(州) of America in the 19th century, so it sounds very real. Today it's thought to be one of the greatest books in American literature(文学). Go to read it! I know you'll enjoy it.
