Model Answer 1:
I don’t really get much time or opportunities lớn read many books these days, probably because I am just too busy earning my livelihood. But, I guess, I just got little lucky last summer when I got some time off from my job. And that’s when I managed lớn read a good book which actually made me think a lot.
The book, I am talking about, is called “The Story of My Life” which is written by Helen Keller. Published in 1903, this book gives a very inspirational tài khoản of the world of a blind và deaf girl, whose speech development also ceased soon after, as she grows up. The main characters in this book are the writer herself (Helen Keller) và Anne Sullivan (a teacher who taught Helen Keller). This is such a book that it would be really difficult for a reader khổng lồ withdraw from it unless he/she finishes it in just one sitting. Và at the end of reading it, one sure would be able to lớn put a smile on his/her face and restore spirit at a time when so much negativity envelopes us.
By the way, I didn’t really know much about Helen Keller except that she was some kind of English “writer”. But, when I incidentally read an article about some of the most “inspirational women figures” of the 20th century, last summer, I came khổng lồ know about her in great more detail, & it was at that time that I decided to read this all-time, American classic, written by this prolific American author.
Anyway, I enjoyed reading this book, from start to finish, primarily because it had me think a lot. In fact, I was losing my mind just lớn even imagine how possibly a woman with such “debilitating disabilities” could actually finish her graduation at a time & age when a very few women would attend a college, and when the disabled would simply be relegated lớn the background and neglected like some kind of “untouchable creature”?

Over the last few years, I was lucky to lớn have read a few books that were, more or less, interesting and thought-provoking. But, none of them really matched the appeal of the book that was written by Stephen Hawking. So, I guess, it is only fair that I talk about that book here.
The name of this is “A Brief History of Time”, và I read this book about a year ago when I was enjoying my summer holidays at my elder sister’s place. Well, I should have rather said that I only “started” lớn read this book during that summer holidays, và I continued reading it for the next few days before I could finish it, apparently because it had lots of pages to lớn cover. In fact, if I remember correctly, this book had more than 250 pages.
Now, the form size of this book would have been enough of a reason to lớn avoid reading it, but I still chose to read it because I wanted to prove to myself that I was intellectually sound enough lớn understand và appreciate some of the complex theories of science và their interpretations in relation lớn the events of our world as well as the universe. I chose lớn read it also because up and until that point, I never read a book that was written by such a world-famous scientist like Stephen hawking. But, for whatever reasons that I chose khổng lồ read this book, it made me think that God và science can actually co-exist. Besides, it also made me think that how insignificant we really are in this universe.
So, in the end, it is fair to lớn say that I really enjoyed reading this book, mainly because many of the things, which I learned at school a long time ago, were proved out khổng lồ be either outdated or wrong. But, what was even more interesting about reading this book was that I just didn’t know whether khổng lồ feel dumber or smarter after finishing reading it, because there were just so many new things in it to lớn understand!

In 2015, I decided lớn read a blockbuster book that I had heard about that among university scholars. I was curious about the book. The name is “Blindness,” a novel by José Saramago. The book’s story is about living a couple in a thành phố in which people are going blind one by one và what happens in these situations. While I was reading the novel, I was overwhelmed by the story so that if a critical condition lượt thích that happens in my town, what can I do. The structure of the sentences and the gist of the story were such that it caught the attention of every reader. No one just read a page and leave the rest of it out.
