答案 Man Flies by the Wing of Imagination If the literary world were strictly based on real events, real people and established facts, it would be a real shame because it would not accurately reflect the full scope of the human experience. Much of the value of literary works is the depth of the imagination of the author. Imagination is intangible, but what it creates is of great value to human existence, therefore the literary world should include works of fiction and fantasy, not just facts and reality. Reading fictional books is excellent for exercising the imagination. Often fictional books are more interesting and appealing than non-fiction because they appeal to people’s hidden desires. Books that we read during our leisure time should help us relax and be in a place uncommon in our daily lives: we might be witness to a whirlwind fantasy romance or imagine ourselves in an imaginary land with non-human beings. Reading such stories is especially important to children, for the development of their imaginations, which is a precursor to future creativity. Also, children should not be exposed to the reality of the adult world too early, and therefore should be provided with storybooks. Some people devalue works of fiction because they believe there is no value to writing about things that aren’t true. However, some works which were considered to be outrageous at the time have turned out to be true in the future, for example, Jules Verne’s 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, or science fiction foretelling the role of robots and mechanization in our lives. One person’s idea makes spark an idea in another person, and with time and cooperation, our society advances. Works of fiction form a type of communication between people’s imaginations. What may begin as a crazy idea can over time become a reality. Reading fictional works brings us many advantages, including stimulating our imaginations, providing us with entertainment, and helping our society to progress through the communication of sometimes extreme new ideas. Established facts and events are arguably the most important part of human history, but great value should also be given to works of the imagination.
