Telling a lie will break someone's heart. Honesty depends on the situation.

If you are sick and you don't want to anyone to worry about you, you will tell
a good lie.

than truth.

Mid-term exam

Reading is an extra ability when you have a free time. Some people will go to
a bookstore to read or to buy the book. However, if you are lazy to go out, maybe you can try to surf the bookstore of internet. In addition, more and more people go to book fair nowadays. I think that the book fair is a good place to learn some information about books. For instance, there are a lot of new books in the book fair,
and someone can introduce the books for you. On the other hand, you can find
the book quickly which you choose to buy. As far as I am concerned, I like all ways
to buy the books.

I like to read kinds of books except horrible books. I don’t like horrible books
that can scare me and lead me to make a terrible dream.
