　　Dear Editors,

　　I have been reading your newspaper for many years with great enthusiasm and interest. Now I would like to render my own idea on reading extensively.

　　Nowadays few of us read extensively after we leave school. This tendency is rather disturbing, for one should know that reading extensively are no less necessary to one’s mental life than fresh air to one’s physical life. From reading extensively, we can derive companionship, experience and instruction. First and foremost, a good book is our faithful friend. It can increase our contentment when we are cheerful and happy, and lessen our pain when we are sad or lonely. Furthermore, reading extensively can also offer us a wide range of experiences.

　　Though with the advent of TV and Internet, books are no longer read as extensively as they once were, nothing can replace the role that reading extensively plays in our lives.

　　Yours sincerely,

　　Li Ming

　　尊敬的編輯：

　　多年來我一直懷著極大的熱情和興趣閱讀貴報(bào)。現(xiàn)在我想關(guān)于讀書問題提出我自己的看法。

　　當(dāng)今我們中很少有人離開學(xué)校后再坐下來讀書。這種傾向令人擔(dān)憂，因?yàn)槲覀冎溃瑫畬θ说木癃q如空氣對人的身體同樣是十分必需的。從讀書中我們可以得到伴侶，得到經(jīng)歷，受到教益。首先，一本好書就是我們一個(gè)忠實(shí)的朋友。當(dāng)我們高興和幸福時(shí)，書能增添我們的快樂;當(dāng)我們傷心和孤獨(dú)時(shí)，書能減輕我們的痛苦。其次，書還能向我們提供各種經(jīng)歷。

　　雖然隨著電視、手機(jī)和網(wǎng)絡(luò)的出現(xiàn)，讀書的人沒有以前多了，但沒有什么東西可以取代書籍在我們生活中的作用。

　　您真誠的，
