Having a peek at the provided materials, the reading section complains about the decline in reading, and caters for some outcomes of this problemmatic issue. Yet, the listening passage antagonizes the points the reading part makes, and presents a different perspective.

According to a recent study, people, in particular younger ones are reading less than they did in the past. This movement has catastrophic results for the society. The decrease in literature is very striking, and this has negative effects, hence the literature is a great source which triggers our intellectual view and which is really helpful in terms of empathize with others and enhance our imagination. Additionally, what the audiences opt out to reading books is a crucial deal because they mostly listen to music, watch a video or spend time with movies. Lastly, publishers can be accused for this decline due to the investment strategy of them. They mostly spend less money to literature and it puts another brick to the problem.

The listening segment overwhelmingly rejects the reasons that the reading passage relied on. It is stated that, intellectual stimuli is not quite imperative and there also are science books or political publications to which the readers spare time. Moreover, culture is in a deep change and the movies or the music plausibly replace the books and reflects what a particular society's cultural aspects are. In addition, the authors should be the ones people can blame because the modern literature's language is so difficult to understand.
