　　The Importance of Reading Literature

　　Literature is acknowledged as the most precious product of human civilization and wisdom, especially by our teachers. So they always ask their students to read as many as literary works. Just as the drawing shown above, a teacher gives a literary work to her student, saying: “Just think of it as if you’re reading a long text-message.”

　　It is of great significance for us to appreciate literature due to the following reasons. Firstly, a good literature can get you to know a life experience through the eyes of someone other than yourself. The more experience you gain, the more knowledgeable you are. Secondly, a good literature allows you to learn about history in a personalized way. The stories told in the works can act as mirrors and help you adjust your own behaviors. Lastly, a good literature is an effective way for relaxation. The beautiful and moving scenes shown in the literature are helpful for one’s mental health.

　　In short, literature is indispensable in our life. We, students, should catch our time to read more literatures.

　　The importance of reading literature

　　As is humorously portrayed in the cartoon, a teacher is handing a classic literature book to a student, asking the student to “just read it as if you are reading a long text message.” Obviously, the symbolical meaning of this picture is to show us the importance of reading literature.

　　It should be generally acknowledged that classic literature plays a significant role not only in preserving the essence of great minds but also in enhancing the quality of one’s life. To begin with, literature as the collection of great minds will help us enormously broaden our horizons, experiencing things we won’t have the chance to do as well as lives we won’t be able to enjoy. What is more, those fine stories selected and conveyed by the great author, although happened in the past, still carry some useful information and implication for our daily lives. In addition, the beautiful words and sentences flowing in the pages of excellent literature can greatly ease our tiredness, making us feel easy and quiet.

　　Therefore, we ought to fully realize the importance of reading literature Just as the teacher in the picture puts, reading literature should be as easy and common as reading text messages. Facing the coming challenges in the days ahead, we need to equip us with not only science but also literature by which we can beautify our life and the world.

The importance of learning basic skills

　　What we can see from the cartoon is that the teacher is instructing the students some basic mathematic skills. However, some students are wondering tha if it will be outdated in the future. The picture implicitly raises the question of the importance of the fundamental skills us students learn in our classes.

　　It is worth mentioning that those seemingly basic and elementary skills w learned in school actually play a significantly indispensable role in our future works. The pervasive undervaluation on elementary skills that we find amon current students and even some teachers can largely be attributed to their lack of vision of future and thorough understanding on the knowledge. After all, it’s an obvious truth that we could not build a magnificent mansion without solid foundations; we could not enjoy a long travel unless we make a solid start at first. Those basic skills may look simple to learn, but without them it will not be simple at all to achieve further goals.

　　To sum up, we should think highly of the importance of basic and fundamental skills that guarantee our wonderful and brilliant future. Furthermore, we should make full use of those elementary skills, consciously applying them in our works and life. Basic skill will never be outdated.
