PART 3 (Discussion)

Time:4-5 minutes
We've been talking about ............. , and I'd now like to ask you some questions related to this.

Q. Would you recommend that book to anyone? Why?
A. Yes, definitely. This, is in my opinion, is one of the best books I have ever read and it was highly appreciated by the critiques and it has a very good rating. It has an important lesson and it is a fast paced book. So I would recommend this book as a must read.

Q. What types of books are popular among children and adults in your country?
A. Children mostly read academic books. Apart from that, they read fairy tales, detective books and adventurous stories mostly. On the other hand, the reading lists among adults vary a great deal ranging from romantic, political, historical, adventurous, horror etc.

Q. What are the impacts of modern life on reading?
A. I think modern life hasn't influenced to the contrary of reading habits. It provided some other potential sources for reading. It is easy to purchase books, get detailed reviews and track the reading using the latest technology and book lovers are still present in our society as they were in the past generations. Some would say that we don’t have time to read books as we lead a busy life. But I won’t agree with that as I still see many people read books when they are waiting in the line, waiting for someone in a cafĂ©. So interested readers always find times no matter how much busy they are.

Q. Between books or movies which one in better and why?
A. I like both books and movies. They are not alternative to each other. Rather they both have their own appealing. In terms of serious learning and knowledge books are better. In terms of visual presentation and entertainment and easy learning, movies are far better. While a book enhances the imagination and creativity of a reader, movies present events and stories more vividly. In my opinion, both are equally important and I personally like both of them.

Q. What are the problems faced by illiterate people in the society?
It is a big problem not to be able to read and write nowadays. In most of the cases, they are not socially respected. Without the education, they can't enjoy the world known to the literate people. They need to rely on others for such matters including reading a letter written by a family member. They might be deceived easily as they never know what’s been written. They can’t write to their dearest person and can’t read the extraordinary stories others can read and enjoy.
