It's believed that everything you need to know can be found in a book.People have always received
life-guiding wisdom from certain types of non-fiction,often from"self-help"books.36 A random sentence
in a thriller(惊悚小说)will give you unexpected insight.
There is a proud tradition of extracting (lines from poetry and songs and using them in this way.Some
people argue that lines from novels and plays are dependent on what surrounds them.37 I don't buy this.It
ignores the way that your brain collects,sorts and combines information.We can find meaning in everything.
Today,we often over-schedule our days and complain constantly about being too busy.Books are uniquely
suited to helping us change our relationship to the rhythms and habits of daily life.38 They demand that we
briefly put aside our work at hand and listen to someone else.You can rant against a book,or even throw it
out the window.Still,you won't change the words on the page.
We all ask each other a lot of questions:"How did you sleep ""Where did you go on your holidays "But
there's one question we should ask of one another a lot more often,and that is:"What are you reading "It isn't a
simple question when asked with genuine curiosity.39
You can also learn about the person who wrote the book by assessing their writing techniques,such as ideas,
word choice,style,tone,and content.40 Similarly,examining the characters in books can give us a better
grasp of human emotions and actions.Understanding others helps us to empathize with them,which creates a
more compassionate society.
A.They demand our attention.
B.But they seem out of reach for most of us.
C.It's improper to grab the odd line here and there.
D.It's really a way of finding out what you are becoming.
E.But actually all sorts of books can carry this kind of wisdom.
F.An analysis of these aspects can reveal things about the author.
G.So they spend their life collecting words and sentences from them.
