教育读书类

中国教育工作者早就认识到读书对于国家的重要意义。有些教育工作者2003年就建议设立全民读书日。他们强调，人们应当读好书，尤其是经典著作，通过阅读，人们能更好地学会感恩、有责任心和与人合作，而教育的目的正是要培养这些基本素质。阅读对于中小学生尤为重要，假如他们没有在这个关键时期培养阅读的兴趣，以后要养成阅读的习惯就很难了。

For a long time, educational workers in China have come to realize the significance of reading for the nation. Since 2003, some of them have suggested that a National Day for Reading should be set up. They emphasize that people should reading good books, especially classic ones. Through reading, individuals can better learn to be grateful, responsible and cooperative with others. And the purpose of education is to cultivate these basic qualities. Reading is of vital importance for students in primary and middle schools，because if they do not foster interest of reading in this key period, it will be difficult for them to

develop the habit of reading in future.
