Different people hold different opinions on how to get acquainted with the word we live in more efficiently. By reading more books or by traveling more? The topic has aroused many people’s attention.
Many people maintain that reading is more meaningful than traveling. Through reading, we can learn a lot about history, cultures and customs, gain much know-how that will be useful for our life and work. Some other people ,however, believe that traveling enlightens human beings more directly. It helps expand our horizons, and makers us see the world by our own eyes to get first-hand understanding. Besides, it’s more relaxing.
As for me, the former view makes more sense. Although traveling is a good way to know one’s country and the world, it takes more time and costs more than average people can afford, whereas reading is obviously easier to do, books can bring us to anywhere we want.
