Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.I’m not a fast reader and I don’t read as much as many other people, but reading is something I enjoy. It opens new worlds to me and widens my perspective(洞察力,眼力).Recently I found Kobo，an online book store that allows me to buy e-books and read them on a device of my choice. I’m a girl living in Indonesia, where e-books are not available and I had to buy physical books from Amazon in the past. There are two problems with it:Shipping cost. Since I live far away from the United States, it costs a lot to ship a book. Shipping costs almost as much as the book itself. Shipping time. It takes about three weeks for the books to arrive through postal mail. Now with Kobo, I can eliminate those two problems. Not only does it cost less time and money to get the books, but also I prefer to read e-books this way than reading physical books. Here are three reasons why:I can easily bring the books everywhere. Since all the books are in my iPod touch, I can simply put the device into my pocket and bring it everywhere I go. The size is smaller. The size of the iPod Touch is smaller than a physical book. This makes reading more convenient for me. I can read in any position I want. The iPod has a light source, so I can read when I am in darkness. This means that I can read in practically any position and condition. One more advantage I haven’t mentioned is space. Physical books take space, but e-books don’t. 小题1:Why does the author like reading?
