A recent study reveals that people especially young people are reading far less literature—novels, plays, and poems—than they used to. This is troubling because the trend has unfortunate effects for the reading public, for culture in general, and for the future of literature itself.
While there has been a decline in book reading generally, the decline has been especially sharp for literature. This is unfortunate because nothing else provides the intellectual stimulation that literature does. Literature encourages us to exercise our imaginations, empathize with others, and expand our understanding of language. So by reading less literature, the reading public is missing out on important benefits.
the reading and the lecture are both about reading literarture.the author of the reading believes that reading literarture is declining day by day.he believes it will affect the future of literature.the lecturer casts doubts on the claims made in the article,she thinks that there are many other forms including science,history and political books beside literarture .anyone can reach these books and enjoy reading them.
first of all ,the author points out that reading literature can bring up intellectual stimulations and effects.it is mentioned that literature urges ones mind to think and imagine events and upon ignorance of literature people will lose theses advantages.this point is challenged by the lecturer,she says that there are many other books that are written in a very creative and superior way,that stimulates the imagination.
secondly,the author contends that books nowadays confronting low quality in its content,the article notes that some books are superficial and people are withdrwan with watching tv or other form of entertaining,which lead to lessen nation culture.the lecturer rebuts this argument,she suggests that culture can exisit in plenty of forms.including good music and movies .she elaborates on this by mentioning that culture is changed and contains other shaoes than only books.
finally,the author states that peopl tendency to read less literature lead to less audience and so less writers,the article establishes that publishers will no more invest in such qualified writers.the lecturer on the other hand,posits that reading less literature is the authors fault.she puts forh the idea that modern literature is very diificult to understand.that discourage readers to follow it.
