Unit 1. Reading ...? Why not?. Lesson 5. What books do you like reading? - номер 2, страница 22.

Условие.

2. Here is the extract from the novel The Catcher in the Rye by J. D. Salinger* which describes the attitude of Holden, the main character of the novel, towards reading.

1) Does Holden enjoy reading? (reading for the main idea)

The book I was reading was this book I took out of the library by mistake.¹ They gave me the wrong book, and I didn't notice it till I got back to my room. They gave me Out of Africa by Isak Dinesen.* I thought it was boring, but it wasn't. It was a very good book.

I read a lot. My favourite author is my brother D. B., and my next favourite is Ring Lardner.* My brother gave me a book by Ring Lardner for my birthday. It had very funny plays in it, and then it had one story about a traffic policeman that falls in love² with a very cute girl that's always speeding.³ Only, he's married, the policeman, so he can't marry her. Then this girl gets killed, because she's always speeding. That story just about killed me.

What I like best is a book that's at least⁵ funny. I read a lot of classic books, like The Return of the Native by Thomas Hardy,* and I like them, and I read a lot of war books and mysteries and all but I'm not mad about them too much. What really impresses me is a book that, when you have read it, you wish the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him on the phone whenever you felt like it. That doesn't happen much, though. I wouldn't mind calling this Isak Dinesen and Ring Lardner. You take that book Of Human Bondage by Somerset Maugham,* though. I read it last summer. It's a pretty good book and all, but I wouldn't want to call Somerset Maugham. I don't know. He just isn't the kind of a man I'd want to call, that's all. I'd rather call old Thomas Hardy.
