? ? ? ? In chapter 15苍在，the writer thinks most of the reader's life will not spend in reading the great books but newspapers and magazines.所以指出來讀書的“禁區(qū)”彼棍，下面是讀書的幾條建議，相信對大家很有幫助简卧。
(1) Don't try to find a "message" in a novel, play, or poem. Imaginative writing is not primarily didactic. No great work of fiction is the sugar-coated propaganda that some recent critics would have us believe they all are.不要試圖在小說、劇本或者是詩歌中尋找信息烤芦，偉大的作品并不需要華麗渲染的外衣举娩，所以需要靜心去感受作品的氣息。
? ? ? （2）Don’t look for terms, propositions , and arguments? imaginative literature. Such things are logical, not poetic, devices. They are proper to that use of language which aims at communicating knowledge and ideas, but they are utterly foreign when language serves as a medium for the incommunicable—when it is employed creatively.在讀書時(shí)构罗，不要在富有想象力的文學(xué)作品中尋找術(shù)語铜涉、主張和論點(diǎn)。這些東西是合乎邏輯的绰播，但它們不是詩意的骄噪。他們對語言的使用是恰當(dāng)?shù)模康氖莻鞑ブR和思想蠢箩。所以我們并不能從中學(xué)到很多東西链蕊。
(3) Don't criticize fiction by the standards of truth and consistency which properly apply to communications of ~ knowledge. The "truth" of a good story is its verisimilitude, its intrinsic probability or plausibility. 不要以真理和一致性的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)來批判小說，而這些標(biāo)準(zhǔn)適用于知識的傳播谬泌。一個(gè)好故事的“真相”是它的逼真性滔韵、內(nèi)在的可能性或可信性。It must be a likely story, but it need not describe the facts of life or society in a manner that is verifiable by experiment or research. 所以當(dāng)我們讀傳記的時(shí)候掌实，我們想知道一個(gè)人的真實(shí)生活陪蜻。當(dāng)我們讀小說的時(shí)候，我們想要的故事必須是真實(shí)的贱鼻，因?yàn)樗赡馨l(fā)生在小說家創(chuàng)造的人物和事件的世界里宴卖。
? ? ? (4) Don't read all imaginative books eis if they were the same. Just as in the case of expository literature, here, too, there are differences in kind—the lyric, the novel, the play—which require appropriately different readings. 不要閱讀同種類型的書滋将，這樣就相當(dāng)于是在浪費(fèi)時(shí)間，浪費(fèi)生命症昏。
? ? Finally, to make these "don'ts" more helpful, they must be supplemented by constructive suggestions. 讀書有方法随闽，也有捷徑，只要掌握了這幾種方法肝谭，往往可以事半功倍掘宪。
