每一次阅读,都是一次不同的遇见。在书本中的遇见,引起思考,从而修正着自己的不足。培根说:“读书,使人成为完善的人。”我们一生所追求的,也就是一个不断完善自己的过程。
Each reading is a different encounter. Encounter in the book, arouse thinking, thus correcting their own shortcomings. Bacon said, "Reading makes a man a perfect man." What we pursue in life is a process of constantly improving ourselves.

欲高飞先振翅,求上进先读书。杨绛说,读书的意义大概就是用生活所感去读书,用读书所得去生活。书中有你读不完的热爱,书中有你看不完的风景。以书为友,一生受益无穷,以书为伴,将不负青春韶华。
Birds flutter their wings before they fly high, while humans read before they strive for progress. Yang said that the meaning of reading is to study with the feeling of life and to live with the income from reading. The book has you can not finish reading the love, the book has you can not finish watching the scenery. With books as friends, life benefit infinity, with books as companions, will not live up to youth.
你无法到达的地方,文字载你过去。每本书都闪耀着人类群星的光辉,阅读就是把书里的星辰,一颗颗拾出来装点自己的夜空。
