II. Read the the passage carefully and choose the correct answers (2,0 ms)
Reading as you know, is a continuos and never ending process. If you do very
little reading or if you read only material that offers no challenge to your
comprehension, your reading will be of very little use. Once you reach a certain age, or
once our formal schooling is completed, many of us become so restricted in our choice
of reading that we rarely read any new type of reading experience. We tend to read only
books in our professional or business field or only inspirational books, or only our
favorite newspapers every morning or only new magazines for which we have
developed a preference. And the trouble starts here. You should neither read only for
entertainment not only for information but you should also read for intellectual growth,
for mental stimulation, for enriching your background of knowledge, for wisdom and
for broader outlook and mature understanding. What kind of books should you read to
continue your intellectual growth to gain a background for opinion and for judgement ?
The answer is simple one: Read books in fields you have little or no acquaintance with,
books that will open for you new horizons of learning, books that will help you explore
new areas of knowledge and experience, books that will make the world and the people
more understandable to you. Sadly, more and more people today are giving up the
printed words by watching TV, a popular entertainment device presented at almost
homes. More and more children are being subjected to TV programming, perhaps as a
babysister. More than two hours of TV time per day are now a part of children
development, generating physiological and mental problems that are of growing
concern among experts.
Choose the correct answers:
1. Reading
A. completely stops when we finish our schooling
B. is an endless process
C. is of little use
D. should be done a little
2. According to the text,
A. new type of reading experience often interests most of us
B. we should only read for entertainment
C. reading for intellectual growth is necessary
D. we should not only read for mental stimulation
3. What kind of books is recommended ?
A. books in fields you have little or no acquaintance with
B. books that will help you explore new areas of knowledge and experience
C. books that will open for you new horizons of learning
D. All are correct.
