and educational. When selecting additional texts for reading in the classroom, these factors must 
necessarily be taken into consideration, as they play a huge role in the formation of personality. 
In general, the suitability of texts or their parts can be determined by such, for example, criteria: 
- relevance of the material to the topics of the lessons; 
- bright and entertaining plot of the text or passage; 
- emotional presentation of the material; 
- thematic proximity of the texts to the life experience and interests of students; 
- topics that can give rise to discussions.
Reading of uncomplicated authentic texts of particular interest is also useful, as they use 
different forms of speech uses, forms of politeness, background and non-equivalent vocabulary. 
All these factors enrich the linguistic and cultural knowledge of students, allow them to better 
understand the specificity, uniqueness of the English language and culture of English-speaking 
countries. 
Undoubtedly, reading contributes to expanding the general outlook of students, increases their 
cultural awareness. In fact, access to the language is also access to the culture of the people who 
created it and who use it. 
Language is considered in its two main functions: communicative as with its help 
communication is carried out, and accumulative as it keeps the culture of people and helps 
to transfer the knowledge to new generations. Thus, in the process of reading and improving 
reading skills students know more about the country of the studied language, the culture of the 
people, its history, art, literature, traditions. 
A number of interrelated pedagogical tasks should be implemented to achieve the highest 
results in the process of teaching reading. While reading the text, students and teachers should 
be able:
- to identify in selected texts the situations which are familiar to students; 
- to reveal the educational potential of these situations.
Functions of the texts include:
- involving the reader in the life situations described in the text through thoughtful questions, 
based on the reader’s personal attitude toward the problems of the characters in the text; 
- inviting the reader to express his own attitude toward the situation, giving examples of 
similar life and art; 
- teaching the language of art, cultivating a taste for real literature.
