I DAY 01 I 왜 책을 읽는가? p.10
Why do you read books?

Nowadays, people can do almost anything with their smartphone. They
even read books or magazines on their phone. It is convenient to read
on your phone but it is certainly bad for your eyes. I sit in front of the
1분
computer for almost 8 hours a day so I don’t want to look at another
screen to read. That’s why I prefer reading real books to reading on my
phone.

I like going to bookstores. I can read books on my smartphone but
I don’t usually like to because I love reading at the bookstore. When
I have time, I just go to the bookstore and pick up some books even
2분
though there is nothing in particular to buy. I like reading books at
the bookstore but I always buy them online because they are much
cheaper.

I personally prefer reading books because I like the texture of paper.
I often go to bookstores and just look around the store. When I have
time, I just pick up a book, stand there and read until I finish it. When I

went to the bookstore yesterday, some good books were on sale. The
bookstore members could receive up to 50% off so I got five books.
This is another reason to go to bookstores.
