Abstract

Generally speaking, reading is considered one of the most preferred leisure activities compared to playing computer games or surfing the Internet. Through reading, students will definitely be more knowledgeable. Students need to inculcate reading habits. The role of reading is growing along with society’s scientific- technological and cultural progress. Reading is considered to be one of the optimum means for training the mind to think critically. Reading is acknowledged not only as a language skill, but also as a means of educating and developing an individual and society. Reading is one of the most important components of our language and it is an essential tool for a life long learning for students. Reading helps an individual to learn all the other areas of the school curriculum and proves vital for learning.
Though reading books, many get confirmations or rejections of their own ideas which make them think more critically about the rights and wrongs in the society. Thus, books can provide people with a sense of values, which can gradually enable them to develop what is perhaps the greatest of all virtues — the ability to understand rather than to condemn. A good reading habit is necessary for a healthy intellectual growth. The reading habit, therefore plays a very crucial role in enabling a person to achieve practical efficiency. One of the reasons for the decline of the reading habit interest has been attributed to the failure of educational instructions in schools to cultivate permanent interest in students to read.
