Read!

This morning when I was reading the  newspaper, I realized that it is a habit I picked up from my Father.  Like him, I would read the newspaper page by page everyday without fail.  Also like him, I like to place the newspaper on the table and turn the pages one by one. I remember when I was in secondary school, he would place the newspaper in front of me and commanded me "Read, it is good for you, you can improve your English".  Then I would grudgingly read some pages.  Once in a while he would ask me "What did you read just now? What news?" When I could not give a satisfactory reply, he would then place the newspaper in front of me again and commanded again, "Read!"
