A lot of people read as a hobby and that is completely easy to understand.
But at least in my country we need to read fiction books in school and analyse them.
It’s important to know that I am talking about fiction, not about history or math books. I am talking about Shakespeare and those fiction writers.
As an example, we need to explain the meaning of verses in poems and we need to understand what is the meaning behind books.
Why we need to do this? Is the necessary nowadays?

If I am a romance writer I’m talking about blushing and love
If I am a biologist probably I’m talking of flowers
If you read a great author (Shakespeare, Dante) what you read is almost never the true meaning (or is one of the meanings) learning to understand what an author mean, how it’s always written in a location and a time and that influence the meaning help you understand it even when you are talking to a partner or listening to a workplace boss or a politician.
