With the development of the television and the Internet, many people have changed their hobbies and the way they enjoy their spare time. Because of the television and the Internet, many people spend less time reading, the aim of this article is to give reasons why people should read just for pleasure. The reasons that I give you are quite simple: to improve your knowledge, to have more fun, to make your imagination fly, to find new ways to express your ideas, and to have a better understanding of life.
Firstly, you can improve your knowledge when you read. There are all kinds of good books to choose from. People who read more usually have a better idea at life than those who do not read often.
Secondly, you can have fun and increase your imagination by reading books. Children have very good imagination, so parents need to read lots of stories that feed their imagination. Adults should try to develop their imagination by reading books that make them think amazing things.
Finally, no matter how old you are, it can help you have a better understanding of life and express your ideas to others in a simple and correct way.
So I suggest that you read more. I know that many of us like to play on the Internet when we are free, but we could also not forget to read books. Try to choose good books at the beginning, and then I’m sure that you will never stop reading.

Do you go to school by bus? It is very important for you to know how to be safe when taking a bus, no matter whether you like it or not.
First, don’t run to the bus stop, but walk. While you are at the bus stop, you should wait in a safe place. Do not run or play while waiting. And never get into a car with a stranger.
Second, don’t talk in a loud voice when you are on the bus, so the driver will not be disturbed(打扰). If you need to talk with the bus driver, you’d better wait until the bus stop. Never throw things on the bus or out of the windows. Never play near the emergency exit. When there is a fire, the most important thing is to break the window with a hammer or any sharp things and then jump out.
Third, when you are getting off the bus, make sure you walk(not run) three more steps away from the door. This is the best place to be around a bus. Stay away from the bus wheels and watch out for moving cars!
Last, if you leave something on the bus, never return to the bus to get it. The driver may not see you come back and he may begin moving the bus. Also, if you drop something near the bus, tell the driver before you try to pick it up, so he will know where you are.

On the bus | Don’t talk Don’t throw |
| Walk three more Don’t Tell the bus driver before you | |
