123. Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? People should read only those books that are about real events, real people, and established facts. Use specific reasons and details to support your opinion.

In the daily life, people are always surrounded by various sorts of books, such as textbooks, biographies, novels and fables etc. What kind of book should people read? Should we read only those books about real activities? When facing this question, different people will present different opinions depending on respective angles. As far as I am concerned, however, I hold the view that people should read not only books based on real stuff, but fictional books as well. My arguments are presented as follows.

To begin with, people have to admit that books about real events and established facts always play an important part in one’s life. These books teach a person the invaluable knowledge and useful skills which lay the solid basis for his tomorrow’s success. Without such books, people could not study and work well. For example, when children begin the time to be educated, they will study the textbooks first that teach them how to read, write and calculate. Only after mastering this basic knowledge, they could pursue their studies further. Moreover, reading the books based on the real stuff such as biographies and news reports would definitely widen a person’s horizon, enrich his experience and mature his mind, making him keep up with the development of the society and attain more achievements in future.

Next, although books about real activities are vital for people’s life, we still should not ignore the function of fictional books like science fictions, novels, fables and fairy tales. These books are the beneficial supplement for people to acquire knowledge. Through reading the fictions, men could extend their imagination and get more inspiration which are helpful to build a successful career and life. For instance, affected by some ancient myths about how sun and moon are created, scientists start to get the inspiration and imaginary thoughts to explore the outer space. And up to now, they have made a great deal of achievements that benefit the mankind’s life. For this aspect, it is necessary for people to read some fictive stories and tales.

Furthermore, fictive books are the major source for children to absorb knowledge. Unlike most adults, kids have not formed the ability to understand the real events and serious facts. For them, the most effective and magnetic way to study is to read some fairy tales, cartoons and etc. By reading these interesting books, kids could learn to judge what is beautiful and what is evil in a right way. Such knowledge is very useful to develop children’s healthy personality.

To sum up, as discussed above, spending all the time on reading only those books about real events and real people is not advisable. Fictive books also act an important role in our life. Only reading various books together, people could make more achievements and live a better life.
