Berikut ini adalah pertanyaan dari jesterhat090 pada mata pelajaran B. inggris untuk jenjang Sekolah Menengah Atas
Firstly, books are relatively expensive in Indonesia. Publishers claim that the prices of raw materials and the production costs of books are high and keeping increasing. Therefore, books are sold expensively; and consequently , most students can’t afford them.
Secondly. If we browse the bookshelves at bookstores. It is not easy to find real high quality books. Some books with good topics may have plain and boring designs, while there are also books which look good but the contents are almost not worth-reading.
Thirdly, and quite unfortunately, nowadays there are many kinds of activities other than reading, and the young people prefer doing them. These include watching youth soap operas on Tv, listening to music and songs with meaningless lyrics or just hanging out at shopping malls. Such activities clearly do not offer as much as learning as the book reading habit does. And , clearly, they forget the saying “ a book is a window to the world “
In conclusion, it is clear that the reading habit among Indonesian students is still low for the reasons above. If we expect changes from this situation, everybody must take a apart. Students must be willing to set their preference to useful activities such as reading book.
