Answer 1

One possible version:

Dear editor,

    Students of today are reading more than very before. Indeed, the importance of reading can

never be too much stressed.

First of all, reading, especially out-of-class reading, enriches our mind and broadens our horizon. People say that books are the crystal of human wisdom. Through reading, we learn what cannot be learnt in our classrooms. Besides, reading is also a way of relaxation. It is so refreshing to read a story before going to bed, or after a day of study.

There’re many famous sayings about reading, like “Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body.” Then, how can we develop the habit of reading? In the first place, I believe we need to begin from an early age, then stick to it and never give up. Secondly, we should read as many as books, written by different people.

Best wishes.

Yours sincerely,

Jiang Ping
