下面是我自己翻译的，希望对你能有所帮助。
In mordern time， reading fewer and fewer people, regardless of the figures, or the surrounding circumstances are such as these. Have a reason for this phenomenon is that people more and more access to information, especially electronic information to obtain more and more, such as radio, television, computers and the Internet. Access to pictures, video, sound and other information more convenient way, the demand for paper text on the decline. Reading is the ancient people of the most important access to information a way, but it is one of the most basic way, this also requires the contents of the paper should have the content to attract readers. I think this is the progress of mankind, although some people think that sometimes such methods to obtain the information is unreliable.
在现代社会，读书的人越来越少，无论统计的数字，还是周围的情况都是如些。产生这个现象的原因就是人们获取信息的途径越来越，特别是电子信息的获取方法越来越多，如广播，电视，电脑和互联网。人们获取图片，视频，声音等信息的方法越来越方便，对纸制文字的需求在下降。阅读是古代人获取信息的最重要的一种方法，但现在只是最基础的方法之一，这也要求了纸制书的内容更要有内容才能吸引读者。我认为这是人类的进步，虽然有人认为有时这样获取的信息方法不可靠。

Nowadays, there’re less and less persons to learn knowledge by reading books, because computer have almost entered into every family, they like learn knowledge form internet better, I think it’s not a good way to people for long-term learning, perhaps you want to ask why. In my opinion, everybody can upload learning data to internet, so you may search out many kinds of results for a question, there is often no authoritative result for your confirmation, you may learn a bad or incorrect knowledge from internet, otherwise, the books always are written by experts, make sure that there are less mistakes in books than that in internet, even there is no mistake in books. So I hope there will be more and more lively diagrams in books, then people can learn knowledge in interest.

Very insightful. My question to you then is what is the best way to take action regarding this issue at my school without fear of being terminated for going against authority? I have tried to in the past, but since I am not in an administrative position, I can say how I feel, but in the end it ultimately does not matter at all. Personally, I have a big issue with people holding administrative positions without the appropriate credentials. I am currently obtaining my Master's Degree at the University of Dayton in Literacy. I have spoken with many university professors, as well as a few literacy coaches throughout the Dayton Public School District regarding how they administer their test prep for reading and math. The way my school is focusing on test prep is ultimately taking away critical time for writing, social studies, and science; however, they 'told' us not to stop teaching these subjects, but what is implied is that if the reading and math test prep are not taught, then either are the other subjects. The students are already getting burnt out, and so are the teachers. Teachers are responsible for making worksheet packets for every day of every week. Everything we go over must look like the test. Teaching worksheets is NOT the most effective way to teach young children! Especially when we must cover at least 6 different skills a week! Don't get me wrong, I am doing everything in my power to make each and every lesson as effective as possible, but I do not agree with this at all. What would you do if you were in my shoes and the shoes of every testing grade teacher in my school?
