How to become a better reader

Language and literacy(读写能力) are among humans’ greatest inventions. Evolving（演变） over the course of human history, languages are a reflection of our cultural and societal attitudes. Today, surrounded（包围） by social media, television, movies, and, of course, books, the ability to read and write is important to expressing one’s feelings.
