THE IMPORTANCE OF READING

   

'Couple reading under a tree'  Warren Dennis 

 

Read!  Read all you can.  Read as much as you can.  Read a variety of texts. Read books, articles, novels, newspapers, magazines, advertisements, brochures, leaflets, textbooks, text in films, tickets, etc.  Even though you may not always understand everything you read, you will probably understand the general idea, and be able to deduce vocabulary and ideas. This will increase your comprehension, vocabulary and grammar. All this information will be stored in your passive knowledge area, and although you may not use the language or information immediately, one day you will find it becomes useful when the situation arises. So... read, read, read !
