寫在前面:
這本書的名聲很大父阻,大家的評價也很高⊥椋可謂是經(jīng)典中的經(jīng)典。其實以前也翻了翻履婉,不過有點看不進去煤篙。不過,下面這個導(dǎo)圖倒是一直存在我的手機里毁腿。
希望能通過這次的閱讀辑奈,能夠提升閱讀的能力,增強理解力已烤。希望以后看書的時候能夠走點心...
Thoughts:
1.
作者對讀書的藝術(shù)的定義如下:
Thus we can roughly define what we mean by the art of readingas follows:
the process whereby a mind, with nothing to operate on butthe symbols of the readable matter, and with no help from outside,* elevates itself by the power of its own operations.The mind passes from understanding less to understanding more.The skilled operationsthat cause this tohappen are the various acts that constitute the art of reading.To pass from understanding less to understanding morebyyour own intellectual effortin reading is something like pulling yourself up by your bootstraps.
大意是通過自身的努力,并且需要一些技巧胯究,來增強理解力稍计。
2.
作者說讀書有3個目的:獲取知識,理解力裕循,娛樂臣嚣。并且講了這3個目的的區(qū)別。提出讀書要讀拔高一些的剥哑,能讓自己真正有所提升的硅则,而不是干癟癟的新聞,雜志類信息株婴。類似于i+1方法怎虫。
3.
文章確實有些啰嗦,有些話都在重復(fù)困介。有時想想大审,這類工具類的書,直接讀中文不是更爽快逻翁,更能學(xué)到想學(xué)的東西饥努。
不過,從學(xué)點兒英文的角度八回,讀原版未嘗不是件好事酷愧。
4.
書里說instruction=aided discovery. 確實驾诈,讀書學(xué)習(xí)這回事,老師只能起個引子作用溶浴,接下的路還得自己走乍迄。知識要自己去吸收、內(nèi)化士败、成長闯两。
5.特別喜歡下面這句話:
Thinking is only one part of the activity of learning. One must also use one’s senses and imagination.
The art of reading, in short, includes all of thesame skills that are involved in the art of unaided discovery:keenness of observation, readily available memory, range of imagination, and, of course, an intellect trained in analysis and reflection.
閱讀需要思考,需要感官谅将,需要想象力漾狼。
6.
自己總結(jié):讀書的藝術(shù)應(yīng)該是經(jīng)過思考來進行積極讀書,并運用一些技巧饥臂,如想象力逊躁,并依靠自己來增強理解力。
