话题4 乐学善学 “全民阅读”策略 The Chinese government has a policy called “Nationwide Reading”， a movement to develop better reading habits among the population. Realizing the importance of reading in national strength, China has gradually raised “Nationwide Reading” as a national strategy. There are still problems, however, such as a lower reading rate compared with the world's main countries, less public resources, and mixed quality of reading materials. A national survey showed that Chinese read 3.26 ebooks and 4.58 paper books on average in 2015, compared with an average of 16 books in Europe and the United States. The United States introduced the Reading Excellence Act in 1998 and the No Child Left Behind Act in 2002. The Republic of Korea and Japan have also introduced laws to call on reading. Our country encourages schools, colleges and universities to open their libraries to the public, and calls on bookstores to offer reading space and organize reading for customers. Reading is not just an important professional skill. It is also a way to enjoy informative(教育性的), creative, and inspiring works in literature that enrich our life experiences. Like any skill worth mastering, a reading habit requires time and dedication to develop. It is, however, a lifelong source of enjoyment and entertainment and a good hobby for anyone who wants to pick up a book. 1. What is “Nationwide Reading”? A. It's a movement to buy books. B.
