Nowadays reading books isn't so popular among the youth as some years ago. A lot of people think that it is much better to watch a film version. However, others prefer reading an interesting book because they educate and entertain us. I agree with them and I would like to explain my point of view on this problem.

As already stated I am in favor of reading a book for a number of reasons. Firstly, the book is a source of information, people can find answers to their questions, some advice and also another view on the existing problems. Secondly, reading books is a very useful spending of your free time with great pleasure. Moreover, Russia takes the seventh place among the most reading countries in the world.

However, there is another point of view that watching a film is much easier than reading a book because you don't have to use your imagination. Besides, some people have little spare time to read a book because they are very tired after their work or school. I can not agree with it as books make us feel, worry about the characters, dream and think about everyday life.196

In conclusion, there are two different points of view on this problem. I'm fond of reading books and I'm sure that no screen version can be better than a book itself.
