April 23rd every year is World Reading Day. You may receive one or two books on this day. What kind of methods will you use to treat these books? Let's study it together!
By chance, I heard the words shallow reading. Because of the lack of knowledge, asking people for advice is interpreted as: "pursuing simple and easy reading." I thought about it, and then I thought of another idiom, "I don't want to know too much."
The basis of my association is that these two words have similar meanings, especially the words "simple" and "practical". "Practicality" is the essence of an article, and "simplicity" is the real reading.
Tao Yuanming once said, "Study hard and forget to eat before you know it."
From this sentence, it is not difficult to see the meaning of this sentence, that is, not seeking to know more, or reading shallowly. Everyone learns from birth to old age, so telling stories is the most valuable friend, because he will never leave you, and will accompany you from birth to death at any time.
In fact, the ancients have long known the practicality of shallow reading, such as Zhuge Liang. Why is his knowledge so extensive? Because he can "see the outline" with shallow reading skills when reading. Isn't this the easy and simple reading in shallow reading?
"Read and read, I don't know where to put it, don't be too late."
This sentence was said by Lu Xiangshan in the Song Dynasty, which means that when reading, don't be too picky and don't lose too much because of small things. Isn't this an example of shallow reading?
Shallow reading is actually grasping the central idea of this book and taking its essence when reading. If you say you want to read a book, you can travel all over the world. It is true that after you understand this book, others have read hundreds of them. There are not many books in the world, and the ocean can't measure the width and height of books. If you don't master and apply shallow reading skills to so many books, you may only read a few books until you die.
Confucius was moved-books are everywhere. We can see how many books Confucius has from this proverb. So many books, if he just read one by one, where did so many books come from and where did they get the name of Confucius? We can also see the benefits of shallow reading. How many literati have reached the peak of literature since ancient times? If there is no simple reading method, you will learn words all your life, so how much will you learn?
Having said that, I think you can understand the use of some shallow reading! I also hope that you can use the skills of shallow reading to climb higher literary peaks.
