Reading Is Simply Life!

This is my speech that I presented to my class about, why reading is important?

Why is Reading Important! Well here is everything you need to know why reading is important. Reading, there are different kinds of opportunities when you know how to read, jobs, education and sports. These can all lead to future jobs that are good and that will make your brain smarter. Just like country leaders they need to read a contract to be officially, president, mayor and prime minister. How could they have accomplished these things without reading?

There are so many possibilities of the benefits of reading. Reading improves everything maths, spelling, writing and all the subjects that you will learn.  

Before starting school you need to know the alphabets, numbers up to 20 and your name, you can’t do all this things until you can read. And when you start getting older and now a senior you will need to do tests and need to talk to each other to help you understand. Reading helps you find correct answers to lead to future education. Without learning to read there will not be education. When you reach university that’s when exams start getting harder, and you will need to read the questions properly.

You may not seem like to read a lot, but think again, reading helps to improve your English and with reading you can learn languages and different kinds of cultures. Reading can also entertain you, when you are bored and help you understand books and stories that you are reading. Once you get the habit of reading your brain memory will improve and you will get 100% absolutely brilliant.

Reading can also affect your everyday life! For eg: the roads, you should always be safe on the roads. You will need to check the lanes, cars, road signs, and stop lights, without reading these important objects on the road you might crash or get into a serious accident with other drivers on the road and might lead to life threatening injuries or even death. Again jobs, if you don’t know how to read the time then you will be late for your work, and even get fired. And if you get fired how are you going to get a job in time because you will need to provide for your family.

You don't learn to read, you read to learn! And one more thing is that if you don’t read you will be illiterate. That means you won’t be able to learn to read and write. Without reading you will not learn, maths, spelling, writing, science and technology. So that means reading is extremely, intensely important. To my conclusion reading is simply life!
