Reading Makes a Full Man
Reading is very important in our life. We can get knowledge through reading. It can not only open our minds but also make us more intelligent. Besides, reading is also one of the most important ways to learn a foreign language like English.
Textbooks, newspapers, magazines and other kinds of reading materials can help us know more about the outside world and help us grow into an excellent person.
I'm planning to read at least 5 books in the coming holiday. And I'll spend more time reading every day in my senior high school life. Reading makes a full man! Let's start reading now.
