　　Reading improves your empathy (同感).

　　Stories provide life­changing perspectives. Giving your attention to the lives of characters strengthens your ability to understand others' feelings. Seeing the world through the eyes of Jane Eyre, for example, may make it easier for you to understand females' viewpoint.

　　Reading can encourage your life goals.

　　Reading about someone who overcame obstacles may motivate you to achieve your own goals, Ohio State University researchers found. If you'd like a salary raise, thinking about how a character in the book did so may give you the courage to make the same request. The more you identify with a character and experience the events as if they were happening to you, the more likely you'll be to take action.
