People read books less often these days. With the invention of the Internet and computer games, and most recently, smart phones, it seems that reading books is no longer a popular activity. However, I believe that books are an important part of our lives.
Books offer an outstanding wealth（财富） of learning and at a cheaper price than taking a course.
Books can make people cleverer because heavy readers have greater knowledge of how things work and who or what people were.
Everything in today’s society needs to be read. Imagine trying to do something simple, for example, read the instructions（说明） on a medicine bottle. If someone could not understand that, he or she will become very sick or even die.
