Reading broadens our horizons and gives us wisdom.Reading can also be a bridge bonding family members.
Rose is my daughter.1 read stories to her every night when she was a little girl.So I had her captivated by books when she was at an early age.For example,almost every night she would go to bed early,waiting for my reading.When Rose was about eight,we changed our routine.We took turns selecting our books and reading out loud.
There was no regular pattern in the books selected.I remember that we began with Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island,enjoying the company of those rough sailors and stumbling(結(jié)結(jié)巴巴地讀) over the eighteenth-century seamen' s dialect.But we loved the book,and learned a lot about pirates daily life,adventures,tricks,greed and so on.We later went through many books,like the chick lit series.
In due course Rose grew up and left for McGill University in Montreal.She was educated in French and was enthusiastic about speaking the language.Her first visit home was at Christmas.
There was a gift from her,an audiobook with six cassettes.It was Sophie Kinsella's Shopaholic Takes Manhattan,read by Rose.Her reading was interrupted occasionally by a giggle,and her voice made me remember how happily Rose and I read together in our bedroom every night when she was a kid.
As I write this,Rose is a third-year medical student at Dalhousie University.Now she is interested in medicine while I am interested in history.However,we manage to combine our different personal interests.We recommend selected reading materials to each other.We are currently loving The Crimson Portraitby Jody Shields,a well written novel about the development of plastic surgery during World War l.Our first written collaboration an article on Canadian medical history,will be published this year.
