II. Read the essay and then express your opinion (not less than 5 sentences): What is better – a book or a movie?
There is a great variety of opportunities how to chill out and release any burden from your soul without going out. The simplest way to do it is to watch a movie or read a book. If you ask humans about what they like more, there will be plenty of replies. Some people would say that there’s nothing better than reading a capturing book, while others would rather watch an interesting movie.
I strongly believe that reading books has lots of benefits. For one thing, the process of reading is similar to an adventurous journey, because you have to use your imagination to develop a unique world of the author in your head. Also, it’s a fact that words influence our mood and state drastically that's why sometimes reading might reduce us to tears. It means that the book language is the most powerful way to touch human’s heart and soul.
Meanwhile, movies are able to do lots of various things. For example, they bring the whole world to life, that's why we can watch it. All characters are made of flesh and blood, thus we don't have to imagine, what temper they have or how they look like. In other words, a movie makes us see plenty of things which a book sometimes isn't able to show so well, especially if one doesn't have a good imagination. That's a total escape with a focus on the screen without distraction.
To sum up, it does make sense to say, that movies are, in general, gorgeous. However, they simply don’t possess the same inclusion that books usually have. Movies give you a chance to observe everything, while books make you feel it, live it and know it. Reading a book, you’re not a mere stranger, you’re a part of the story. You can be everyone you truly desire: from the witch that uses black magic of the cursed ancient tribe, to the lord of the underworld. There’re no restrictions! Everything is possible.
