Reading comprehensionQuestion 266 of 550

Reading is a habit that a person builds step by step, like muscles that grow with exercise. Experts say that a person who reads twenty minutes a day reads several books in a year without feeling the weight of it. Reading widens a person's stock of words. It makes his focus and his speech stronger. It also opens worlds that he has never visited. Studies suggest that regular readers understand long texts better. A new reader does not need to start with huge books. It is better to choose a subject that he likes, to fix a regular time for reading and to put the phone aside. If he continues for a month, he will find that reading has become a pleasure and not a duty.
