of books most popular among young people. And the second key
feature is that only 17.6% of teenagers reported enjoying reading
romances, putting this genre at the bottom of the table.

PARA 3: make 1–2 comparisons where relevant It is also worth mentioning that the number of teenagers
enjoying detective novels and books about war and spies

PARA 4: outline a problem that can arise with In my opinion, the statistics in the table reveal an important
reading and suggest the way of solving it problem. We can see that teenagers are not interested in
biographies and are therefore missing out on a great amount of
wisdom contained in these books. I think that in order to solve
this problem biographies should be included in the school
curriculum.

Мое мнение + аргументы creative skills.

Undoubtedly, reading plays an important role in everyone's life. Doing a project about reading I found an opinion
poll on teenagers' favourite book genres and collected some data. I am going to comment on several key features of the
results of the poll.

Looking at the details, the most popular book genre is adventure with 55,4% reading this type of literature which
means that teenagers are keen on dynamic plots and unexpected twists. On the contrary, the least popular genre is
romance as a little bit less than a fifth of teenagers read it.

According to the data in the table, sports stories appear to be more popular than animal stories, as there are 49.2%
of teenagers reading sports stories, which is around twice as many as the figure for animal stories. Another important
thing to mention is that detective, spy and war stories are almost as popular as adventure stories – the difference
between them is 0,1%. Both genres are real page-turners and this may be the key to such popularity.

One problem that can be connected with reading is that nowadays reading is losing its popularity among teenagers,
and this may result in poor imagination and a limited vocabulary range. However, there is a possible solution to this
problem. School teachers should stimulate teenagers' interest in various book genres by organising special discussion
clubs and drama lessons.

In conclusion, I believe that reading is crucial in everyone's life because it broadens people's horizons, expands
their vocabulary, improves their memory and develops imagination.
