The Importance of Reading

I personally think that reading is an important activity in our life. Why do I say so?
Firstly, by reading we can get a lot of information about many things in the world
such as science, technology, sports, arts and culture.
Secondly, by reading we can get a lot of news and knowledge about something
happening in any part of the world which we can't see directly.
Thirdly, reading can give us pleasure. When we are tired, we can read books,
newspapers or magazines on the entertainment column such as short stories, comedies or
quizzes to make us relax.
Fourthly, reading can also take us to other parts of the world. By reading a book about
Irian Jaya we may feel that we’re really sitting in the jungles, not at home in our rooms.
Based on the facts above, it is obvious that everyone needs to read books, newspapers,
magazines or others to get knowledge, news, information and also entertainment. In other
words, we can say reading is truly important in our life.

Why We are not Allowed to Text while Driving

The popularity of mobile devices has had some dangerous consequences. We know
that mobile communications are linked to a significant increase in distracted driving which
results in injury and loss of life.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reported that in 2010 driver
distraction was the cause of 18 percent of all fatal crashes – with 3,092 people killed – and
crashes resulting in an injury – with 416,000 people wounded.
The Virginia Tech Transportation Institute found that text messaging creates a crash
risk 23 times worse than driving while not distracted.
Eleven percent of drivers aged 18 to 20 who were involved in an automobile accident
and survived admitted they were sending or receiving texts when they crashed.
Distracted driving endangers life and property and the current levels of injury and loss
are unacceptable.
