127Do you agree or disagree reading fiction is more enjoyable than watching movies?
Some people believe that reading fiction is more enjoyable than watching movies, because they would like to appreciate details described in books. However, in my opinion, I prefer watching movies than reading fictions and my reasons go as follows.
The first reason is that watching movies is an essential way to reduce people's pressure. Nowadays, the fiery social competition pushes(forces会不会好些？) individuals to work so hard that they contribute most of their time to work towards a their career goals or study for further development. As a result, few people have plenty of time to enjoy any entertainment. Apparently, reading books, which consumes much time, probably cannot attract people that return from a whole day's work or study. For example, instead of reading the book of " the Lord of the Ring” which is totally about a thousand pages, lots of people tend to watch the movie. Not only does the film enable people to draw an outline of the story in a short time, but also provide them with spectacular images and amazing background music. The fantastic silver screen releases people from the tiredness of working and studying.
The second reason is that watching movies helps people to strengthen the relationship between family members or friends. In contrast, reading, which is always carried out by a single person, watching a movie, on the other hand, enables people to find various movies, presenting different themes and affections, to share with their families or friends. For instance, the movie "Tantanic", a romantic love story, is perfectly suitable for young couples. After watching the movie, they may find the true meaning of love and the significance of loving each other.
It should be admitted that reading fictions is somewhat superior to watching movies, since one can appreciate the brilliant words and sentences between lines(好像有点中国化，不确定英语里面是否这样说). However, (comparing or compared) to movies, those fictions cannot satisfy the requirements of most of the people due to the current social environment. Obviously, people obtain more benefits from watching movies than reading fictions.
In conclusion, according to the reasons above, I am concerned that watching movies is more enjoyable than reading fictions, since movies play an important role in decreasing the pressure over individuals, and enhancing the affection among human beings.
