Objectives
3a
Read the post. How did Chen Lei develop his love
of reading?
My love of books comes from my mother. Because of her, our home is full of books on different subjects.
When I was a child, my mother used to sit me on her knee, tell me stories, and teach me how to read. Soon, I was reading by myself. Over time, I found children's books no longer kept me interested. So I started reading other books, newspapers, and magazines. I especially enjoyed popular science books and books about the lives of famous people.

start doing sth 开始做某事
After dinner, I would just pick a book from the shelf to read in my room. Reading opened up new worlds and allowed me to discover new things for myself. In general, I prefer print books, but sometimes I read e-books. I think that reading is great fun.
Now that I am older, I can always find time to read in the school library. I believe that reading has helped me a lot with my schoolwork and made me more confident about my future.
Chen Lei, age 15
