Read the passage carefully, and then choose the best option of words to
answer the questions:
Reading, as you know, is a continuous 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 we 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 one magazine for which we have developed a preference. And the trouble
starts here. You should neither read only for entertainment nor 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 judgment? 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 people more understandable to you. Sadly,
more and more people today are giving up the printed word in favor of being
entertained and informed by watching TV, a popular entertainment ,device
present at almost homes. More and more children are being subjected to TV
programming, perhaps as a babysitter. 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.
