11. Why do you think read or don’t read?

I think people must read because reading expands
the knowledge. Sometimes it helps us to decide
some questions.
I think reading is very interesting. And when the
weather is rainy you can sit on the sofa and read
some book and you don’t notice how time flies
by.

12. How do you read?

But if you read book you have to read it very
attentively and don’t miss important things.
But some people read books very quickly, between
lines. They don’t think about what they are
reading. I think it’s not right.

13. Book, which is worth to read to my mind

I think the book which is worth to read, it’s a
classical literature, for example, William
Shakespeare or Michael Bulgakov, or books
about main historical events of our country.
For example, books about the Great
Patriotic War.

Discuss the following questions:
•What’s the title of the book?

characters? Who are they?
