What is the effect of reading and listening to books?
It should be said that each has its own merits, and it is also a book. If I were still young, I would still read regardless of my eyes. Because look, mainly in your own experience, experience years, experience plots, experience people, feelings, all kinds of details, a good book will bring your emotions into the scene and be moved.
Then listening to books is also a good choice. The listener saves effort, and at the same time, with the help of the emotional deduction of the storyteller, he can get different feelings and enjoyment. At my present age, I like listening to books because of my eyes.
What's the difference between them? I may read a book by myself, which can resonate with the plot in the book. The main feeling is that I am from the heart. If you listen to books, there will be less emotional interaction, and you can only convey the feelings of storytellers to your brain through your ears, so reading will be less fun!
People used to read books, and they were used to reading books, especially picture books. Later, Dan Tianfang and Mei Lanfang wrote a ballad: Yang Jiajiang and Yue Jiachuan are also charming.
In the past, people's lives were monotonous and there were few recreational activities. Xinhua Bookstore and Library can be said to be places frequented by readers.
However, times are different, people's lifestyles are different, and the pace of life is fast. When reading becomes a luxury, paper books and paper media are undergoing unprecedented tests.
The traditional reading concept that everyone follows has to be changed. Listening and reading, another reading form that adapts to the fast pace, naturally enters people's choice interface.
The reading club is limited by factors such as environment and conditions, so the choice of listening to books will be relatively broad. For fear of influencing others, you can listen to it with headphones for ten minutes, eight and a half hours, 1 hour. If you have something to do, put it aside and continue listening next time.
If you want to understand and deeply understand, especially technical books, you should choose to read books, and it is faster and more convenient to "rewind" when you need to remember them repeatedly.
It is better to listen to stories, and it would be better if there were storytellers like Dan Tianfang and Mei Lanfang.
Reading and listening to books are two different experiences, which are also divided into personal preferences and habits. The environment is quiet and there is plenty of time. If I can calm down, I will choose reading. Listening to books is similar to listening to songs. Plug in headphones on the way to work, do housework and cook at home, and you can listen to a song or a paragraph.
Listening books haven't been listed for a long time. Which effect is better than reading? There is nothing better than this, but a time that suits your needs better.
Which is better, reading or listening to books?
Reading is your own initiative. When you look at it with your eyes, you are thinking about it in your heart. When I see happiness, my heart surges and I can't control myself. I wish someone would share it. I stood up and turned around twice to calm my excitement.
And listening to books is passive. If you listen to a good book, you will go to the bookstore to buy one at once. If books are generally used as background music. Only when I am bored do I have something to kill time.
Therefore, reading is reading in your heart, and listening to books is killing boring time. Especially in the fragmented time, listening to books is still very good. Helps pass the time.
Listening to books is like running water, while reading is like watching flowers slowly. Both are fine. As far as the effect is concerned, it is best to combine the two, just listen first and then see the effect.
You can close your eyes when listening to a book. You can only read with your eyes open. Reading and listening are mostly free. Reading costs money to buy books. Both are good ways to fall asleep. One advantage of listening to books is that it is not limited by time and place. You can listen to it when you are doing housework, taking the bus, queuing and shopping. Modern people are very busy every day, and listening to books can buy people some time to study. If you read a book, you must have some free time and find a quiet place to sit down. In short, each has its own advantages and varies from person to person.
For me, reading is not as good as listening to books, because I don't pay enough attention to reading.
Reading is better than listening to books. Reading can focus on the essence of the book line by line to get information, but I can feel the harmonious heartbeat of the sacred unicorn. Listening to a book is like listening to a duck's croaking, and the thunder goes into the right ear cover in the left ear. The most wonderful place will pass if you are not careful. When reading, you can read repeatedly and understand classic sentences. Reading has an eye for three to one day, a heart for two days and a hand for three days. After reading a good article or a good book, it will be of great benefit to write down some thoughts! Besides, don't read dead books while reading. You should first understand the essence of an article or a book, and then read it carefully. It is necessary to repeatedly study and learn the writing skills of key places and recite famous sayings and aphorisms.

Listening to books is listening to books, and it can't replace "reading"
A few days ago, on New Year's Eve, many people listened to a lot of books in the circle of friends, and I saw the most books of 400+. 20 18 I also listened to more than 200 books, but I didn't put these books into my concept of "reading xx books".
A listening audio takes about 20-40 minutes. According to the normal speech speed, that is, a manuscript with 6000- 10000 words, even if it is condensed and refined, it is impossible to condense a book with 300,000 words into 10000 words.
Therefore, listening to a book can only let you know what the book is about, and if you really want to read and say that you have "finished" a book, please be sure to find an electronic version or a paper version to really finish it.
Similarly, sometimes I will listen to the audio once more, because after reading the book, I have my own ideas and opinions about the book, and listening to the audio once is equivalent to communicating with someone who has read the book and has a certain opinion to see what people think and what inspiration or tips they have.

How to maximize the utility of listening to books
The advantages of Himalayan, Get and WeChat reading software are that there are countless heavy readers and knowledgeable people. After reading the book, they will open it and explain it to you.
Especially when we can't read with our eyes and time is wasted, such as walking, eating, taking a car and so on. Listening to books at least enhances the value of this "time".
It turned out that I might be doing one thing this time, but now I can do other things while listening to books, and these are purely physical, not mental. Moreover, listening to books with excessive brains does not consume physical strength. Let the body and brain work at the same time, and the value of time will naturally be amplified.
But even so, many times listening to books is not enough. After all, walking depends on the road, taking the bus depends on the station or changing, and eating and doing housework will also be business. After all, you have to finish these things.
So many times, we mistakenly think that we have listened to XX books, but the information we can really hear in our ears may be 20%-30%.
The way to maximize the utility of listening to books is to read the original as soon as possible after listening. If you spend four hours reading a 300-page book and you listen to the audio explanation for 30 minutes, you will find that you can finish reading the book in two hours, because you have "previewed" it through your ears.

Listen to the whole book instead of the explanation version, ok?
There is audio read from the original text in the Himalayas, and there is a big gap between them. If the same book has 300 pages, it is estimated that it will take 8- 10 hours to read the original text in the Himalayas, and it usually takes 30 minutes to read the essence.
Once I also chose to listen to Read the Original. Didn't I read a book from beginning to end? If only from the content, listening to the full text seems to be similar to reading the full text.
However, there is still a big gap in efficiency. It takes 8- 10h to listen to a full-text book, which is limited by people's reading speed. The maximum number of words in one minute is 100. If you look, you can read 400-600 words a minute.
Moreover, listening to original documents can only be suitable for listening to fiction and story books such as novels and literature. Once a little professional knowledge is involved, you will find that your thinking can't keep up.
What's more, you have to consider people's "attention". It is almost impossible to concentrate for 30 minutes when doing housework.
Therefore, I suggest that there are two best ways to match:
(1) Listen to the 30-minute version first, and then read the original (2-3 hours).
(2) Read the original first, and then listen to the 30-minute version.
This may be one of the most effective ways to improve your reading efficiency.
