When you are hungry, what will you respond? Have your favorite meal and stay quiet after that? 71 But it never lets you know, because you keep it busy thinking about your friends favorite
stars. So it silently serves your needs and never lets itself grow. When mind loses its freedom to grow, creativity sets a full stop. This might be the reason why we all sometimes think “What happens next?” or “Why can’t I think ?”
72 Why reading but not watching TV ? It is because reading has been the most educative tool used by us right from children. Since it develops other aspects of our life, we have to take help from reading.
When you read a book , of course you run your eyes through the lines and your mind tries to explain something to you. 73 Now this seed is unknowingly used by you to develop new ideas. If it is used many times, the same seed can give you great help to relate a lot of things, which you would have never thought of in your wildest dreams ！
This is nothing but creativity. 74 Within no time you can start talking with your friends in English or any other language and never run out of the right words.
So, friends, do give food to your thoughts by reading, reading and more reading. 75 Go and get a book！

A. The interesting part of the book is stored in your mind as a seed.
B. Why not do some reading while you are hungry.
C. Just like your stomach, your mind is also hungry．
D. Now what are you waiting for．
E. Hunger of mind can be actually solved through wide reading．
F. Reading can help you make more friends, too ．
G. Also this makes a significant contribution to your vocabulary．
