The more books you read, the better your life will be. If you don’t believe me, please consider these five reasons to read more books.
You will make your brain power better.
This shouldn’t come as a shock, but studies suggest reading makes you smart. Unlike watching television, which requires no thought process, reading is an active learning experience that will keep your mind sharp.
You will increase your chances of success.
The more books you read, the more knowledge you will have, the more ways and resources your brain will store, the more likely you will succeed.
You will have things to talk about at parties.
Reading more books will enable you to say the sentence, “Did you know …?” more often, making it easier to start conversations with strangers.
You will enlarge your vocabulary.
The more words you’re able to use, the better you will become at expressing your thoughts and feelings. I couldn’t imagine how I would write articles like this if I didn’t actively aim to enlarge my vocabulary, because using the same few words to express myself would get boring.
You will enjoy a good night’s sleep.
Your mobile phone or TV can make it difficult for you to get a good night’s sleep, if you do so late at night. You would be wise to cut off all electronics at least an hour before bed, and replace that with a good book, which is a much better choice.
The books can change your life. I firmly believe that if it wasn’t for books, I wouldn’t have achieved in my life; nor would I have the knowledge, imagination(想象力)or creativity创造力). I hope these reasons to read more books encourage you to unlock your power of reading.

The more books you read, the better your life will be.

“I sometimes get up at three or four in the morning to surf the Internet.”
“I check my e-mail almost forty times a day．”
“I seldom spend less than three hours each time on the net.”
“spend more time in chat rooms than with my 'real-life’ friends．”
Do you know any people like these? They are part of a new addiction(瘾) called Internet addiction．According to experts，Internet addicts(迷)spend at least thirty to forty hours online every week．They lose control of the time they spend on the Internet．
For example，one college student was missing for several days．His friends were worried and 1ooked for him everywhere but couldn’t find him．They called the police．The police found the student in the computer lab: he was surfing the Internet — for seven days straight．
A study shows that about six to ten percent of Internet users become addicted．The teenager spend more time on the Internet than with friends and family. That’s why some experts worry most about young people．
Is “surfing the Internet” a hobby or all addiction for you? You may have a problem if you have one of the following symptoms(症状)：
★You go out with your friends less and less．
★You can’t wait to get online again．
★You’ve decided to spend a short time online，but then you spend several hours．
★You do not go to important family events or you do not do school projects because you like to spend hours on the Internet．
What is the solution? Some experts suggest that people set strict limits on their time for Internet use. You have to learn to control it，or the Internet would control you．
