Reading novels was a controversial topic among primary and secondary school students. On the one hand, reading novels could allow them to come into contact with more plots and characters to cultivate their imagination and creativity. On the other hand, being overly addicted to novels might affect students 'studies and lives, causing them to lose their ability to control themselves and even lead to problems such as lack of concentration and a decline in academic performance. Parents and teachers should pay attention to the following points when considering whether to let primary and secondary school students read novels: 1. Control the reading time: The reading time of primary and secondary school students should be limited. Don't let them spend too much time reading novels. Parents and teachers should make reasonable reading plans to control the time they spend reading novels to ensure that their study time is not affected. 2. Choose suitable novels: The reading level of primary and secondary school students is limited. Parents and teachers should choose novels that are suitable for them to read and not give them novels that are too difficult or too childish. At the same time, parents and teachers should also provide a brief introduction and evaluation of the novel to help them judge the quality of the novel. 3. Control the content of reading: Parents and teachers should educate students on the importance of reading and encourage them to read meaningful literary works instead of pure novels.
