Not long ago, a friend of mine decided to read a lot of books to get knowledge. So he went to the library and happily with several books. But after a few days, he felt bored. The idea of finishing all of the books seemed , because it was for him to sit quietly to read a whole book. He didn’t know what to do. Then one day, he suddenly thought of “Why not make reading fun?” It gave him again. Reading is a journey of spirit(心灵之旅). Every time when we a book, we are actually talking the writer. Since then, he tried to spend more time reading books, so he could feel all of the writer’s happiness and sadness. And reading is boring, but kind of interesting.
