　　预测范文

　　Nowadays few of us read extensively after we leave school. This tendency is rather disturbing, for one should know that reading extensively are no less necessary to one’s mental life than fresh air to one’s physical life. As is vividly shown in the picture above, a huge book is lying above green grass and beautiful flowers. Beside some yellow sunflowers which are surrounded by lovely butterflies, there is a topic which says: “reading”.

　　From reading extensively, we can derive companionship, experience and instruction. First and foremost, a good book is our faithful friend. It can increase our contentment when we are cheerful and happy, and lessen our pain when we are sad or lonely. Furthermore, reading extensively can also offer us a wide range of experiences. In reading we may join tourists marveling at incredible power of Niagara Falls, mingle with the happy throngs strolling in the Paris boulevards and experience the bitterness or joy of people in different lands and in different times. Few of us can travel far from home or live long over one hundred, but all of us can live many lives through the pages of books. The last but not the least, reading extensively can increase our intellectual ability, broaden our minds and make us wise.

　　Though with the advent of TV and Internet, books are no longer read as extensively as they once were, nothing can replace the role that reading extensively plays in our lives.

　　参考译文

　　当今我们中很少有人离开学校后再坐下来读书。这种倾向令人担忧，因为我们知道，书籍对人的精神犹如空气对人的身体同样是十分必需的。如上图生动所示，一本书翻开在绿草鲜花之上。在可爱的蝴蝶环绕的一些金黄色向日葵的旁边，小标题显示：“读书”。

　　从读书中我们可以得到伴侣，得到经历，受到教益。一本好书就是我们一个忠实的朋友。当我们高兴和幸福时，书能增添我们的快乐;当我们伤心和孤独时，书能减轻我们的痛苦。书还能向我们提供各种经历。读书中我们可以成为游客，尽情赞叹尼亚加拉瀑布那雷霆万钧之势，喜洋洋地和许多人一起漫步在巴黎的林荫大道上，还可以体验到不同时代、不同国土的人民的酸甜苦辣。我们中很少人能到很远的地方去旅游，或能活过一百岁，但是通过读书我们能经历各种各样的生活。更重要的是，读书能提高我们的知识技能，开阔我们的眼界，使我们变得聪明智慧。

　　虽然随着电视、手机和网络的出现，读书的人没有以前多了，但没有什么东西可以取代书籍在我们生活中的作用。
