Reading will never graduate. This is the article I just read. The author Ge is a librarian of Fudan University. I just went to Fudan University a few days ago, and the academic atmosphere and youthful atmosphere there attracted me very much. In this article, Professor Ge mainly talked about three viewpoints: why to read, how to read a good book and what to read.
Professor Ge believes that reading can increase knowledge and avoid detours. Reading after graduation is a great pleasure in life. Never too old to learn. Life is like a big classroom, and society is a sea of knowledge, with inexhaustible knowledge and wisdom. Therefore, people should be students all their lives, never too old to learn; Learn from books and others; Learn from practice and society; Learn knowledge and learn to be a man. The ancients said, if you don't advance, you will retreat! If you relax your study and don't enrich your mind, you will become empty and bored, and your quality of life will be compromised. As for how to read a good book, Professor Ge believes that we should not only understand the hidden meaning of the author behind the words, but also blindly believe in books, and should combine social practice to read books. For a student, how to read a good book is a very important problem, because it directly leads to a good learning method and learning effect. "It is not pleasant to study from time to time." Learning is to be a happy person. Reading has been the greatest pleasure in life since ancient times. Learning comes first, and learning is based on reading. We should not only read books with words in the den, but also read books without words in society. Some people like reading and love life, but they often fail to achieve their lives because of books, while those who are not very interested in reading believe one thing: books are better than no books.
Only by understanding the meaning behind words can we understand history and life.
Professor Ge told us why and how to read, and then told us what books to read. In the era of information explosion, reading should be selective; People's time and energy are limited, and reading without restraint will be counterproductive; Only by finding the most suitable book can we get twice the result with half the effort. 1952 Nobel Prize in Literature laureate mauriac once said, "Tell me what books you read, and I will know who you are." This statement is quite right. In the past, people often said that "opening books is beneficial." In fact, that was the motto of the book shortage era. In the sea of books, we should still read selectively. What kind of books we read will become what kind of appetite we will form. Mediocre books not only cost us a lot of prime time, but also reduce our taste.
Mencius said that it is better to believe in books than to have no books. If you rely entirely on the knowledge in books, I think it's better to stay for a while without reading books, first go to the society and communicate with people more, maybe you will understand life and then read some books, and then you will really understand books.
When life began to return to campus, when everyone was blindly and enthusiastically involved in various skills training classes, I knew that what I could do was to stick to my favorite career. Although I didn't do very well, at least I didn't do badly. Students will eventually graduate, but never graduate from school.
