Because reading has been the most educative tool used by us right from the childhood.Just like that to develop other aspects of our life,we have to take help of reading.You have innumerable number of books in this world which will answer all your How to? questions.Once you read a book,you just dont run your eyes through the lines,but even your mind decodes（解码）it and explains it to you.The interesting part of the book is stored in your mind as a seed.Now this seed is unknowingly used by you in your future to develop new ideas.The same seed if used many times,can help you link and relate a lot of things,of which you would have never thought of in your wildest dreams! This is nothing lout creativity.The more the number of books you read,the more your mind will open up.Also this improves your speaking skills to a large extent and also makes a significant contribution to your vocabulary.Within no time you start speaking English or any language fluently with your friends or other people and you never seem to run out of the right words at the right time.12.
