▶ Your Answer :
There are two main types of books: fiction
(novels and stories) and non-fiction (histories, biographies, and self-help
books, for example). Among them, I prefer to read novels and stories. In this
essay, I will introduce two of reasons why I think reading fiction is better
than non-fiction.
First of all, fiction books help me to
improve my creativity. To be specific, whereas non-fiction types of books are
based on fact, fiction types of books are usually based on imagination. It is obvious
fact that the characters or situations of imagination spur people’s creativity.
Improved creativity is helpful for several of fields such as academic
achievements, works, or daily lives. To support my opinion, I want to give ‘Harry
Potter’ as an example. When I read ‘Harry Potter’, I was impressed by characters
and settings in the book. It was a really new world for me. After reading Harry
Potter, I used to imagine characters that are not exist in real world, which is
beneficial to enhance my power of imagination.
In addition, when I read a fiction book, I
can release my stress because the types of books give me more interesting. Non-fiction
books usually have the atmosphere, calm and quiet. Also, Non-fiction books
require readers to have deep thought and understanding, which could give stress
disturbing concentrating on books thoroughly.
On the other hand, fiction types of books have a tendency to be funny
and interesting. Therefore, while reading fiction books, readers can get rid of
stress coming from school, workplace, or house chores. For example, when I was
in high school, I get stressed out because of my poor grades. However, whenever
I read different novels, I can release my stress. This is because during
reading books, I can focus on interesting stories without any worries.
All in all, because of the reasons
mentioned above, I think it is better for me to read fiction.
