Reading Selectively Or Extensively
Some people think when we read we should read selectively. That is to say, we should select some books we are interested in and ignore the others. Reading selectively can help us concentrate our limited time and attention on those selected 17 books.
Others think we should read extensively. No matter what kind of book it is, we should look it over. We should read various kinds of books, whether we are interested in them or not. They maintain that reading extensively can help to enlarge our view and grasp the general knowledge in different fields.
In my opinion, the two reading ways have their roles respectively in our reading. However, the disadvantages of each methods are easy to see. If we only read the books we select or prefer, the framework of our knowledge may not be complete. Our knowledge would be rather limited. And if we read without selection, we may not have so much time and energy to be specialized in one particular field. Therefore, the combination of the two methods is more reasonable。
参考译文
有选择地或广泛阅读
有些人认为我们读书时，我们应该有选择性地阅读。也就是说，我们应该选择一些我们感兴趣，而忽略其他的书。有选择性的阅读可以帮助我们集中我们有限的时间和注意力在这些选定的17本书。
其他人认为，我们应该广泛阅读。无论什么样的书是，我们应该看它。我们应该阅读各种书籍，无论是他们还是不感兴趣。他们认为广泛阅读有助于扩大我们的视野，掌握不同领域的一般知识。
在我看来，这两种阅读方式分别在我们的阅读有自己的角色。然而，每种方法的缺点是很容易看到的。如果我们只看我们选择或喜欢的书籍，我们的知识框架是不完整的。我们的知识是相当有限的。如果我们没有选择，我们就不必专门从事某一领域如此多的时间和精力。因此，这两种方法的结合更合理。
