五、完形填空。
世界读书日在每年的4月23日。它由联合国教科文组织于1995年设立，旨在鼓励人们，尤其是青少年，发现阅读的乐趣。
许多国家都会庆祝世界读书日。在英国，每年的这一天，数百万学生都能以特别的价格购买书籍，价格比任何书店平时的价格都低很多。从1998年起，每年都会这样做。中国也会庆祝世界读书日。我们的前任总理虽然非常忙碌，但仍会大量阅读。在2009年的世界读书日，他呼吁人们多读书。他建议年轻人应该花更多的时间阅读。“书籍不能改变世界，但人们可以通过阅读改变自己来改变世界，”他说。
阅读能在很多方面有益于人们。阅读帮助我们变得更有知识。阅读帮助我们跟上科学技术的最新发展。阅读为我们提供关于世界其他文化和地方的信息。当我们阅读时，我们可能会发现很多我们不熟悉的东西。我们必须用我们的大脑去思考它们，或者做更多的阅读来找出答案。我们读得越多，知道的就越多。我们知道的越多，就会变得越聪明。阅读也是学习一门外语（比如英语）最重要的方式之一。我们都知道，我们不能在学校学到所有的东西，例如，现在英国人的说话和写作方式。
阅读使人充实。书籍、杂志、报纸和其他种类的阅读材料可以帮助我们更多地了解外面的世界并完善我们自己。因此，我们有必要养成每天阅读的习惯。
