100 Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Reading fiction is more enjoyable than watching movies. Use specific reasons and examples to explain your position.
Reading fiction, such as novels and short stories, is more enjoyable than watching a movie. Of course the images in a movie are much more vivid, because youre seeing them on a large screen in a dark room. The images you see in a novel are only as strong as your own imagination. But the more you read, the stronger your imagination becomes. Reading exercise your imaginative powers. Watching a movie dulls them. Imagination like a muscle needs to be used. Otherwise it can disappear.
When you read, youre an active participant in your own enjoyment. Thats one reason reading develops the imagination. Youre reading the words on the page and translating them into images in your mind. When youre watching a movie, youre a passive viewer. The movie is giving you everything. Nothing comes from you except your reaction to what youre seeing, and even that can be given you by the movie. Some movie plots are so simple, you can predict whats going to happen before it does.
Reading fiction also develops your storytelling skills. The more reading you do, the better you become at creating plots and characters. The plots and characters in movies are often very simple, because the emphasis is on action rather than on language or character development.
Still, going to the movies is a great community experience. Sitting in a large theater with a lot of other people is fun. You experience the same reactions to what youre seeing together. Reading is a one-person experience. Its a chance to go into an imaginary world by yourself. Both experiences can be fun and rewarding, but I think reading fiction is more enjoyable.
