Believe me, those who say this are either booksellers or bookworms. As for some people who say that reading, like eating and reproducing, are the innate nature of human beings, that is even less credible. The reason is very simple. Just take China as an example. From the time when knotting ropes to record events to Cangjie's creation of the Chinese character "Ghosts and Gods Cry", there were few books that were good to read. From the emergence of oracle bone inscriptions to the invention of papermaking and movable type printing, during these thousands of years, it was difficult for ordinary people to read books. It took more than 100 years for reading to become truly popular. So we really don't need to belittle ourselves today. It is said that in 2008, the per capita reading of our country's citizens was only 4.58 Books. However, if newspapers and the Internet are included, the number must be more than this. You can't say that reading newspapers and online articles does not count as reading, although it does not count as reading "books". But I don't understand, why do we have to study?
