The Chinese nation is undoubtedly a nation with a good reading tradition. There are countless interesting stories about celebrities and books: the great thinker Wang Fuzhi wrote hundreds of books in his life, and even used a box full of books when giving his daughter a dowry; Wang Yanan, the first translator and economist of Das Kapital, asked the waiter to tie him to a chair and concentrate on his studies when he was caught in a storm and the ship was bumpy. The poet Wen Yiduo disappeared on the morning of his wedding day, and was later found by his friends while reading in the study. ...

However, in recent years, we have heard more such stories. In 2008, an early education center in Shanghai took the lead in opening a classic reading class for children. Experts lead/kloc-children under 0/0 to read classic works such as San Zi Jing and Analects of Confucius. Results In just three months, the number of students decreased from 20 to 3. A reporter interviewed the parents of children who dropped out of school, and the answer was surprisingly consistent: "It is more affordable to spend time learning English, computer and piano when you enter school in the future. These are all points that need further study. "

(3) Since when, books are no longer "ladders for human progress" but "slides that delay children's further education"? Parents' preconceived refusal to read classics not only confiscated the tickets for their children to enjoy the rich cultural feast of mankind, but also indirectly led to their utilitarian reading habits when they grew up. In many bookstores, when you look at the "best seller list", the conspicuous positions are all books on stock trading, funds and management.

Crowded bookstores are in sharp contrast to the spiritual famine that contemporary people can't fill-ironically, the more utilitarian books we read, the more serious this famine becomes. Holding teaching AIDS and "fast food" books for too long, our vision becomes narrow and confined to our own life circle, which leads to mental fatigue, thinking about society and thinking about human nature.

It is hard to imagine what kind of future a nation with mental exhaustion will have. When people talk about "World Reading Day"-April 23, which is also the anniversary of the death of Shakespeare and Cervantes, they often exaggerate "coincidence" and ignore the important role of these writers in enlightening thoughts and enriching civilization.

If you say Shakespeare is too far away from us, I can't reach their level no matter how much I study. Then look at Carnegie. Many people often look for "quick-acting particles" from his "human weakness" when they are caught in interpersonal disputes and fired. But Carnegie once wrote: People need more than bread to live. Some millionaires face human hunger because they lack the nourishment of humanistic spirit; On the contrary, some poor people are very rich in spirit, far beyond the reach of millionaires-it is a person's spirit that makes his body rich.

⑦ Remember Deng Qingqing? The girl reading a book with a flashlight in the ruins after the earthquake was rescued and said, "It's dark down there, and I'm scared. I am cold and hungry, and I can only relax my fear by reading books! "

Reading can ease our inner fears, enrich our hearts and give us spiritual strength. Let's start today and think about why we should set up "World Reading Day" to regain the true reading spirit.
