Proverbs and golden rules 1. Books are our best friends. 2. Choose an author as you choose a friend. 3. Treat books with care as good friends. 4. Do your best to tear, spot, mark up or damage a book in any way. 5. Do not turn down a page to mark the chapter where you left off reading. Use a book-mark.
How do you choose a book? • I choose books by genre. • I follow my parents` advice. • I choose a book by the author. • I choose a book by the title. • I look at the pictures on the cover. • I only read books that are recommended by friends. • I read the blurb first.
Why do you think read or don’t read? I think people must read because reading expands the knowledge. Sometimes it helps us to decide some questions. I think reading is very interesting. And when the weather is rainy you can sit on the sofa and read some book and you don’t notice how time flies by.
How do you read? But if you read book you have to read it very attentively and don’t miss important things. But some people read books very quickly, between lines. They don’t think about what they are reading. I think it’s not right.
Book, which is worth to read to my mind I think the book which is worth to read, it’s a classical literature, for example, William Shakespeare or Michael Bulgakov, or books about main historical events of our country. For example, books about the Great Patriotic War.
Discuss the following questions: • What’s the title of the book? • Who was the book written by? • What sort of story is it? • What is the story about? • Is there any information about the main characters? Who are they? • Would you read the whole story? • Would you recommend it to your friends?
n n n What do think about books? I`m keen on… I like… It`s my cup of tea. It is worth reading. It teaches you to… It makes you (happy, laugh, think, cry). It`s good fun. It thrills you. It`s a waste of time. I can`t stand. It`s not worth reading. It bored me to death.
