解答 參考范文：
Dear editor，
    Students of today are reading more than ever before．Indeed，the importance of reading can never be too much stressed．（提出主題）
    First of all，reading，especially out-of-class reading，enriches our mind and broadens our horizon．People say that books are the crystal of human wisdom．Through reading，we learn what cannot be learnt in our classrooms．（原因一）Besides，reading is also a way of relaxation．It is so refreshing to read a story before going to bed，or after a day of study．（原因二）
    There're many famous sayings about reading，like"Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body．"（名言）Then，how can we develop the habit of reading？（提出問題）In the first place，I believe we need to begin from an early age，then stick to it and never give up．（措施一）Secondly，we should read as many as books，written by different people．（措施二）
Best wishes．
                                                                                                                                                                                                                 Yours sincerely，
