不久以前，我一个朋友多读书。
Not long ago, I advised a friend to read more books.
我说，工作再忙，也应该每天读一点书。
I said that no matter how busy work gets, one should continue to read a little every day.
朋友的情况是工作很忙，没有时间。
My friend's situation was that his work was very busy and he had no time.
我告诉他，读书可以帮助我们眼睛，压力。
I told him that reading can help us protect our eyes and relieve stress.
读书也是一种很好的方式，能让我们熟悉更多的知识。
Reading is also a very good way to grow, and it lets us become familiar with more knowledge.
朋友听了我的话，有点，因为他以前很少读书。
After listening to my words, my friend felt a little proud, because he used to read very little.
他决心以后要培养读书的习惯。
He resolved that from then on he would carefully cultivate the habit of reading.
现在，工作再忙，他也会抽出一点时间读书。
Now, no matter how busy work gets, he will set aside a little time to read.
他说，读书能打动他的心，让他感觉平安和快乐。
He says that reading can move his heart and make him feel peaceful and happy.
我真为他的进步感到高兴。
I am truly glad about his progress.
