Question

What is one advantage to reading a text in its original written form? A. It offers the most freedom of interpretation B. Books are always better than the film adaptations C. It provides the most definitive answers to a reader's questions D. It should be a more enjoyable activity

Answer 1

Answer:

A.

Explanation:

Reading a text in its original written form helps a reader to come up with more interpretation. The reader is able to relate to the writer directly and forms his/her own interpretation of words and phrases. The reader is able to form a direct connection between the writer itself.

Whereas a translation breaks that bridge of connection between the reader and the original writer. Though a translation is not wrong but reading in original text gives readers the freedom to choose their own way of interpreting the text according to their own level of understanding of the original language and culture. As literature is a versatile subject it also enables each reader to form their own unique way of interpreting the text.

So, the correct answer is option A.
