Few students paid attention to / took notice of what the teacher was saying Part 2: Sample 1: When I read a book, I am swept away into my own little world discovering new things and imagining places only I can see. It is a private dialogue between the author and me. There is no one to criticize or question me. I can read the book at my own speed and savor it every moment. Books offer us the world. We can learn about history, geography, famous and interesting people and different countries. It is the cheapest form of travel that I know! I love to read a variety of authors and learn about new ideas and ways of expression. I also try to read a variety of books, from romance to biographies and everything in between. I especially like adventure stories because it is in here that I can really put my imagination to work! There is such a vast amount of information available in books. From the early ages to our recent years we can continue to learn about a variety of topics and interests. School textbooks offer us the basics for learning how to learn-from math to science, from language to arts. Recently, my father and brother were interested in building a new table and chairs for our family's dinning room. Neither one of them is a carpenter. So how did they do it, your might ask? They bought a book that showed them how! A good book truly merits respect whether it is a "how-to" book, a good novel or a school textbook. Sample 2: It is often said: “Tell me what you are reading and I will tell you who you are”. For me, a good book is always a good teacher guiding me through life as well as a true companion encouraging me and consulting me in my desperate straits. In fact, interesting books are a source of invaluable knowledge to those who want to master everything they haven’t known before. Through masterpieces all over the world we can realize the whole outstanding culture and civilization of mankind in every aspect such as literature, science, sociology, and so on. Nobody denies the important role of good books in developing man’s knowledge. The more we read valuable books the more we become wise and experienced. Next, good books are true companions who always share our joys and sorrows in our daily activities. Are you in low spirits and disappointed in your affairs? Read wise advice through books by profound scholars and authors. Are you sad? Read subtle humorous stories of well-known humorists in the world. All your sorrows and disappointments will vanish at once. In summary, good books help us train our personality. They help us distinguish the Good from the Bad and they lead us to the True, the Good and the Beautiful. .
