I became interested in reading a newsparer when I was in university.
At that time, I used to read the news paper that was provided whenever I got a break in the library.
It was because I need to be good at common sense and trend in order to prepare for job interviw.
It was really crucial, you know.
Now, I read news paper in my office every morning, but it is my own, not common use.

Correction:

I became interested in reading newspapers when I was a university student.

At that time, I used to read the newspaper they offered us whenever I had a break.

It was because I wanted to be well informed  about a variety of subjects and common trends in order to be prepared for a potential job interview.

That was really important for me then.

These days I still read the newspaper in my office every morning, but I buy it for myself
