The pictures show different people reading
in a variety of situations. They are
reading novels, newspapers, school books, eBooks and probably more kinds of
texts. I think that in some of the
pictures people choose what they read although in the photo of a classroom in a
school they do not. In this case, the teacher is the person who chooses the
reading.
The feelings could be really different
according to the person. What I refer is that people in the library could be
reading for pleasure or maybe some of them are doing a school work, so the
first ones could be relaxed meanwhile the others could be stressed because they
have to put a lot of attention in what they are reading to learn it or use it
later. It happens the same for the other pictures, some could be feeling in a
calm and peaceful way and others under pressure as the pupils in the school.
In my case, either in English or Spanish, I
like reading when I am alone. I need silence to concentrate on the text, and at
the same time, it allows me to reflect about what I am reading. I could read
outdoors, as the man with the newspaper, but it should be in my garden, not in
the street. Nevertheless, what I like the most is reading a novel in a
comfortable sofa. If I have to study, it is different, I need my desk. It does
not matter the language, but I have to recognise that I have some requirements
before reading. I try to read every day I have spare time, and of course, I
prefer paper books. Screens make me feel tired sooner.
Finally, I think I do not have preferences
between English or Spanish. Maybe if it is a novel with a lot of difficult
vocabulary, Spanish is my best option (since it is my mother tongue). However,
if I find a text which fits my level, I enjoy it deeply because my mind works
in English and I love it.
