These five pictures
represent a habit that I was used to do from my childhood : READING.
I loved reading when I went to bed every night. In fact, I went to
the library every week to borrow some books that were read quickly…
On the other hand, people
are reading traditional books in pictures 1,2,4,5, I mean, books made
with paper. However, an ebook is used by an elderly woman in picture
3.
On the other hand, except
in picture 4 where some students are reading the same book, surely
guided by a teacher, the others show people reading by pleasure.
To my mind, readers from
pictures 1,2,3,5 seem to be happy, focused on the story they have
really chosen, living the same adventure the characters are
undergoing. Nevertheless, students from picture 4 do not seem so
happy because they are following the teacher´s instruction to follow
the same rhythmn.
As far as a reader in L1
is concerned, I like reading all kinds of genres, mainly in summer ,
when I am on holidays. Regarding L2, I also read all types of genres.
As an English philologist, I have read the same amount of books in
both languages.
Because of the lack of
time , what I usually read every day are the online news, both in
Spanish and in English newspapers. Besides, I checked my Facebook and
my Instagram account where I followed many accounts related to the
teaching of English, to travels … they are quick and easy to read
and they drop me a hint of the main news.
Honestly, I prefer reading
books made with paper: their touch, their smell, their easiness to
read back and forward…. Although I am thinking about purchasing an
ebook in order to have more free space at home :)
