There are many benefits of reading books. Unfortunately, in this day and age, not a lot of people take the time to read them anymore. But that doesn't change the fact that you're missing out on a lot of wonderful benefits! Read on to learn the various benefits of reading books!
It Feeds Your Mind.
Obviously, reading books provides you with new knowledge. Whenever you read something, you learn new information that you otherwise would not have known.
It can be a fact about history or a theory you did not know existed. If you want to learn new words in particular, reading books is a great way to enrich your vocabulary.
It Keeps Your Brain In Shape.
Reading also keeps your mind in good condition. Similar to solving puzzles, reading books allows your mind to practice its processing skills.
Going without books for too long will turn your mind to mush (玉米面粥). I'm not kidding! Why do you think they call television the boob tube?
It Develops Your Critical Thinking Skills.
One of the primary benefits of reading books is its ability to develop your critical thinking skills. Reading mystery novels, for example, sharpens (使敏锐) your mind. Whenever you are faced with a similar problem in real life, your mind is now able to put its mystery-solving prowess to a test.
It Makes You More Articulate.
There's nothing quite like reading books to help you become a better conversationalist. Seeing how words are used (and how sentences are structured) with your own eyes helps you commit the information to memory better than by listening to a teacher discuss the points in class.
It Is Easy To Get To.
One of the great benefits of reading books is that the information in it can be read over and over again. When you're following a recipe, for example, reading a cookbook allows you the luxury(享受)of reviewing the processes and the ingredients whenever you need to.
These are just some of the wonderful benefits of reading books. Why don't you drop by the bookstore or library and pick a book up? If you can't even go outside, you can download free e-books on line and read them on your computer.

【题目】阅读下列短文,根据短文内容,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选择最佳选项。
D
Biting could be worrying
It makes our fingers look ugly. It's dirty. It could hurt a lot. But many people just can't stop doing it: biting their nails.
Up to 45 percent of teenagers in the UK bite their nails, the BBC reported. There are also many famous nail biters, including ex-British Prime Minister Gordon Brown and American singer Britney Spears.
There's nothing wrong with biting nails to keep them tidy. But it could get out of control.
Some people bite a nail not because it's too long, but because they are driving, reading, feeling stressed out, or just have nothing else to do.
The same could happen to skin picking and hair pulling. A normal behavior could become “pathological”(病态的), as experts say.
In 2013, the American Psychiatric Association labeled (把……列为) nail biting as an obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). People with this disorder may wash their hands too many times or have to line up their shoes in a certain way.
These behaviors have a lot in common. OCD is doing something normal and healthy too much, NPR reported.
But nail biting is different from other OCD behaviors in at least one way.
“In OCD, the behavior is really unwanted,” Carol Mathews, a psychiatrist(精神病医生)at the University of California, San Francisco, told NPR. People with OCD don't want to wash their hands over and over again. There is no fun in it. They just fear that if they don't do something, something else that's very bad will happen to them.
But nail biters enjoy it.
“It's rewarding. When you get the right nail, it feels good,” said Mathews.
Therefore some people argue that most nail biters are not having a problem as serious as a mental (心理的) disorder.
But anyway, it's still a bad habit. So what can we do to stop it?
Since most people bite nails as a way of relieving (缓解) stress, finding another way to relieve that stress could be useful, suggested Rochelle Torgerson, a doctor at the Mayo Clinic in the US. Try playing with your pen instead.
Besides, nail biters feel the urge (刺激,冲动) to bite if they find a small imperfect part of the nail, said Mathews. So always keep your nails in good shape.

(1)What does the phrase obsessive-compulsive disorder in Paragraph 6 mean?
A.An activity that people enjoy doing it.
B.A kind of behavior that people is really wanted.
C.A way of doing something that people does it normal and healthy.
D.A mental disorder that people are unable to control the thoughts or the activities.
(2)How is nail biting different from other OCD behaviors?
A.People do it over and over again.
B.People do it happily and willingly.
C.It does no harm to people's health.
D.It is a physical and mental problem.
(3)What do doctors suggest people do to stop nail biting?
A.Pick skin or pull hair instead.
B.Force them to control the urge to bite.
C.Keep them busy and forget about nails.
D.Find some other ways to release their stress.
