According to you, what kinds of books

should we read?

1. Today, there are many books to read. So, choosing what kinds of books to read is very

important. From my point of view, reading reference books is the smartest choice.

Reading reference books has many advantages. Firstly, like many books, reference books

can help us enrich our knowledge. Unlike television, the book forces us to use our brain.

Reading makes us think more so we can would be more smart.The reference books help us

explain some problems. The books will clarify the problem us understand not deeply and give

us the knowledge without instruction in class

Secondly, the books help you become more confident. Becoming an "expert" on a specific

topic that you read before will probably make you more confident about yourself. Maybe you

will be more proud of yourself. Besides , reading reference books brings many other benefits

for you. It is a way to entertain which is cheap. You can go to the library to read free. On the

other hand, books are easy to carry, you can carry your books anywhere and take the time to

read it. In addition, reading reference books also bring another benifit which is quite

interesting. It can help you make money. Increased knowledge means increased

opportunities. They say, knowledge is power. You can have new creative ideas to bring you

the not small funds.

Canadian Brian Tracy author said to become an expert in a field,you should read 100 books

in that field. Maintaining it in 5 years, you will be an international experts. I believe that.

Reading reference books can help you.

2. Nowadays, with the developments of television and internet, a number of young people

who like reading book is fewer and fewer. But, do you know that reading book is really helpful

for us ? In my opinion, we should read text-books, scientific books and novels.

Firstly, there exists the fact that the young don’t like reading books even text-books. Many

students say that text-books are so easy, boring even useless so they hardly even never use

them. It’s completely wrong. They don’t know that those small text books contain a great deal

of wide knowledge of basic subjects such as maths, chemistry, literature and so on. They

provide you a strong base for your future because if you are good at these subjects, you will

be easy to study advance or main ones at universities or colleges.

Secondly, scientific books are very useful. It is not similar to televisions, books force you to

have to use your brain. Reading book makes you have to think more so you will be more

intelligent. You can apply scientific knowledge to your daily life. For example, when you

accidentally read the unexpected benefits of salt in a scientific book that if you drink a little
dilute bittern in the morning, you can improve your digestion, increase the appetite. Therefore,

you can do that.

Thirdly, if you are a person who likes reading novels specially love or romantic novels that

means you are optimistic, humor, sensitive, creative and imaginative. These characters help

you do everything more successfully and easily, strengthen your concentration, make you

love your life more. Certainly, your life is more beautiful and meaningful.

In short, keep this good and wholesome habit because it helps you refresh your soul as well

as brings helpfulness for your health and the interesting metal life for you.

3. Nowadays, with the development of market economy, we have less free time to relax. So,
when we choose a book to read, we should choose some kinds of book which are useful for

ourselves. In my opinion, autobiography is a great book to read because it has some benefits

below:

Thanks to autobiographies, we can get the lessons that other people have learned the hard

way. Because the stories in autobiographies show us their experiences. They may be a story

which tells you how to get success. They may be a story which tells you some mistakes that

the writer has already experienced. All of these stories give you a precious experience which

are difficult to have, especially if you are a young person. For example, the autobiography of

Steve Jobs brings you a deep insight view of his life as well as the way he became one of the

leaders of Apple company. And these stories are very useful for someone who wants to start

his own career in IT field.

Autobiographies are very realistic. We can’t have practical stories if we read comic books or

novels or some other books. In each autobiography, the writer usually tells the truth. And

that’s a summary story of the writer. We’ll need this experience, especially when we get some

troubles and don’t know how to solve them. Then, we can refer to the autobiography and

learn the way they solve their problems.

Autobiographies bring us some solutions when we really need them . Sometimes, we feel

very tired and stressful. We need to do something to release the stress. Then, reading an

autobiography may help you to do that. Some tasks that we think they’re very difficult to solve.

And we feel that we can’t do them. However, we can finish these tasks easily if we read an

autobiography which mentions to these issues. For example, we need to start our own

company but we have little money. So, how do we solve this problem? We can find the

answer when we read some famous autobiographies of people who get success in business.

In conclusion, each kind of book has its own effect. Some help us relax, some bring us good
knowledge, some make us happy. However, if you are a realistic person, you should read

autobiographies.

4. Nowadays, there are so many kinds of books on many aspects to read. Choosing what
books to read depends on our point of views.

Some people read books only for relax, while others read books to study or to work more

effectively.

As a student, I usually choose myself some kinds of book to read and to study.For studying,

beside textbooks, I often buy some reference books on my favorite subjects such as

mathematic, foreign languages, history and literature.In free time, I like reading comic stories

such as famous detective Conald and especially Vietnamese short stories for entertainment.I

also like some long stories of Nguyen Nhat Anh because of their humorous and witty

contents.Somtimes, I choose some books that give us solutions to get success in life, such as

"I'm talent, so are you!",etc... to cherish and increase my determination on studying.

I think that these books will help me to study well.They can broaden my limited knowlege and

relax myself after a hard working day.Reading books is also a great form of exercise for our

souls.I like reading very much.
