Books are the crystallization of human thoughts and wisdom and an important carrier of human civilization and cultural achievements. For everyone, reading plays a great role in people. Xunzi said in "Persuading to Learn": "I think all day long, so it is better to learn in an instant." This is about the relationship between reading to gain knowledge and opening wisdom. Zhu's "Reading Occasionally" wrote: "Open half an acre of square pond, the sky is high and the clouds are light. How can the canal be so clear? Because there is running water at the source. " This is about the relationship between books and people's mental state and creativity. Gorky, a great writer, also said in How I Read: "Reading is a common thing for us, but it is actually a magical thing, because it enables a person to communicate spiritually with great thinkers of all ages and nationalities." Reading can transcend time and space, talk and interview with the ancients, communicate with the spirit and know the society. Therefore, people's growth and maturity can not be separated from reading, and people's knowledge and civilization can not be separated from reading. It can be said that for a person who contributes to society and is meaningful, books are his mentor and lifelong companion.
