    Just as a famous saying g{#blank#}1{#/blank#}, “Reading is to success what water is to fish.” Reading is very important for all humans. It can open many d{#blank#}2{#/blank#} and can lead you into a path to success. It's quite clear that every successful person has a good h{#blank#}3{#/blank#} of reading. This is b{#blank#}4{#/blank#} reading is an important way to get the information required to understand something. For example, a good doctor has to know the latest development in m{#blank#}5{#/blank#} by reading.

    Then, how can you develop an interest in reading? There is only one way. Let me explain this to you. If you want to learn how to ride a bike, you have to get on the bike as many times as possible u{#blank#}6{#/blank#} you can ride skillfully. It works the same way with reading. If you want to improve your reading, try to read as m{#blank#}7{#/blank#} as you can. When you finish reading your first book, take another book and do the same. If you are going out, take a magazine, a book, an article or something e{#blank#}8{#/blank#} to read. When you are reading, try to understand w{#blank#}9{#/blank#} message the writer is giving to you.

    So, parents should help to get their children to read as early as possible. Studies have s{#blank#}10{#/blank#} that reading to your unborn child is very good. In this way, your child will like reading later.

    Reading is always a wonderful time. Good books are good friends.
