Question

write an article to be published in your school magazine on "Reading makes a Man perfect

Answer 1

“Reading makes a full man” said English philosopher Sir Francis Bacon and no truer words were said than these. Reading nourishes the intellect and nurtures the imagination. There is nothing more relaxing and soothing than sitting in the corner of a room with a book in your hands. Without travelling, without even moving an inch, the reader is transported to a new world and is exposed to a new culture and new ideas.

Reading is a gift that not all inherit and therefore the Government of UAE’s initiative to declare 2016 as the Year of Reading is a great idea. This initiative should open the hitherto closed door for many and make them aware of the extensive powers that reading has. Parents and teachers will have a major role to play and they will have to come up with enterprising ways to encourage and entice children towards reading.

Today’s world is a world of technology. People have many distractions and diversions to spend their time. Most prefer to play a game on a computer or be active on social media, rather than to get involved in a simple activity such as reading. To steer them away from electronics and make them hold a book would be tantamount to climbing Mt Everest in inhospitable circumstances. So, parents and teachers will have to set the ball rolling. In order to do so, they can set a specific time at home and school for reading, and not only this, they should also read at the same time.

As I write this, I am imagining myself with a book in my hands, in the corner of my room, leafing through the pages and my mind wandering into the magnificent, exotic universe that the writer has created.

Answer 2

Everyday we read a lot actively or passively, and the uncontroversial fact is that reading has already entered into our life and played a crucial role. But on earth what is the major purpose of reading? For a promising prospect and high salary after graduation? For gaining knowledge and widening our horizon? For molding our temperament and enlightening our mind? Or just for relaxing ourselves and releasing ourselves from nervousness? As far as Bacon was concerned, reading makes a full man, which is also my standpoint. 
Reading provides us the possibility of opening ourselves up to a magical world, which helps us to become perfect. Histories make men wise, poets witty, the mathematics subtle, natural philosophy deep, moral grave, logic and rhetoric able to contend. So if you are considered to be lack of wisdom, history will teach you how to think and heighten your ability of analyzing and solving problems. If you always feel yourself stay in a confused state, philosophy will illuminate 
the path in front of you. If you hope your life is suffused with romance and passion, read poets please. Shakespeare, Byron and Shelley will put color on your life. 
Reading is also exerting an invisible and formative influence on our character. Accumulated over a long period, the habit will lead us to a full man. Confronted with an intractable issue, you can resort to books, such as , which inherits the wits of ancient China. Outraged by the obnoxious things, you can turn to books for help. Reading will extricate you out of the anger. At this time, classical novels are the good choices, such as and . 
In a word, books are the crystals of all intelligence. Reading not only enables us to make a conversation with all the giants, but also lets us to think profoundly by standing on their shoulders. Reading offers us a marvelous word, comfort our soul and improve our capability, and hence all these impacts together will make a full man.
