今天要讀的是林語堂先生《生活的藝術(shù)》一書中有關(guān)“閱讀的藝術(shù)”的第十二段蚊丐。不知不覺從讀第一段開始,到現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)過去了近十二周的時間锣杂。回顧這些精度筆記的寫作厂汗,我覺得有兩點可以記錄一下:第一,對我自己來說呜师,每周寫一篇要比每天寫一篇更容易堅持娶桦。因為工作、生活有很多不可控因素汁汗,一天的時間相對于一周時間彈性太小衷畦,一旦一天的任務(wù)沒完成,又會給自己帶來負面的影響知牌,所以以周為單位效果更好祈争。第二,精讀的段落我會一個詞一個詞在電腦上寫一遍角寸,除了練習打字速度外铛嘱,更主要的是體會和欣賞,這樣比單純的閱讀效果更好袭厂。
繼續(xù)欣賞林語堂先生《生活的藝術(shù)》一書中有關(guān)“閱讀的藝術(shù)”的第十二段。
先看譯文:
這個問題解決之后球匕,讀書的時間和地點問題也同時得到了答案纹磺,即讀書用不著特定的地點和時間。一個人覺得想讀書時亮曹,隨時隨地可讀橄杨。一個人倘懂得讀書的美妙,那么不論在學校里邊或?qū)W校外邊都可以讀照卦,即使在學校里邊也不致妨礙他的興趣式矫。曾國藩在家書中答復他的弟弟想到京師讀書以求深造時說:茍能發(fā)奮自立,則家塾可讀書役耕;即曠野之地采转,熱鬧之場,亦可讀書瞬痘;負薪牧承皆可讀書故慈。茍不能發(fā)奮自立,則家塾不宜讀書框全;即清凈之鄉(xiāng)察绷,神仙之境皆不能讀書。有些人在將要讀書時常想起許多的借口津辩。剛要開始讀時拆撼,他會憎厭房里太冷容劳,或椅子太硬,或亮光太烈闸度,而說不能讀竭贩,還有些作家每每憎厭蚊子太多或紙張?zhí)樱蚪稚咸[筋岛,而說無從寫作娶视。宋代大儒歐陽修自承最佳的寫作時候乃是“三上”:即枕上、馬上和廁上睁宰。清代學者顧千里當夏天時肪获,常“裸而讀經(jīng)”柒傻,即以此得名孝赫。反之,一個人如若不愿意讀書红符,則一年四季之中也自有不能讀書的理由:“春天不是讀書天青柄,夏日炎炎正好眠,秋去冬來真迅速预侯,收拾書包過新年致开。"
再讀英文原著:
With this question solved, the question of time and place for reading is also provided with an answer. There is no proper time and place for reading. When the mood for reading comes, one can read anywhere. If one knows the enjoyment of reading, he will read in school or out of school, and in spite of all schools. He can study even in the best schools. Tseng Kuofan, in one of his family letters concerning the expressed desire of one of his younger brothers to come to the capital and study at a better school, replied that: "If one has the desire to study, he can study at a country school, or even on a desert or in busy streets, and even as a woodcutter or a swineherd. But if one has no desire to study, then not only is the country school not proper for study, but even a quiet country home or a fairy island is not a proper place for study." There are people who adopt a self-important posture at the desk when they are about to do some reading, and then complain they are unable to read because the room is too cold, or the chair is too hard, or the light is too strong. And there writers who complain that they cannot write because there are too many mosquitos, or the writing paper is too shiny, or the noise from the street is too great. The great Sung scholar, Ouyang Hsiu, confessed to "three on's" for doing his best writing on the pillow, on horseback and on the toilet. Another famous Ch'ing scholar, Ku Ch'ienli, was known for his habit of "reading Confucian classics naked" in summer. On the other hand, there is a good reason for not doing any reading in any of the seasons of the year, if one does not like reading:
To study in spring is treason;
And summer is sleep's best season;
If winter hurries the fall,
Then stop till next spring season.
我的思考和應用:
"There is no proper time and place for reading. When the mood for reading comes, one can read anywhere. If one knows the enjoyment of reading, he will read in school or out of school, and in spite of all schools."? I agree with this. But if you? don't like reading. my advice is that why not go the the library or book shop today, pick up a book as long as there is something of the book that attracks you , or just open a book and read the content page and choose the chapter you have some interest.? The first book will lead you to the second ,the third...
