The book says that fish cannot live without water. What does it mean?

"The book says that fish cannot live without water" is such a cartoon: Spring is warm, flowers are blooming, everything is recovering, a scholar who has been living in the house for a long time suddenly has an idea: go fishing! But he doesn't know when he should arrive Where to go fishing, so he found his "know-it-all" - "Encyclopedia", and went out excitedly with his fishing rod and bucket. He came to a piece of grass, put down the fishing rod and bucket, opened the book to check, and suddenly he saw the words "Fish can't live without water" written in the book. He thought to himself: This is too easy.

He looked up and saw a well made of bricks with a round bottom and a hexagonal mouth not far away. He quickly ran over happily, threw the line on the fishing rod into the deep well, and read a book while waiting for the fish to take the bait.

Many people will laugh when they see this cartoon, laughing at the scholar who only knows how to study and study, and cannot adapt to the reality, so he went fishing in the well!

Gorky Once said: "Books are the ladder of human progress." This manual is the spiritual food of mankind. Reading is as important as eating every day. Many people rely blindly on books and do whatever the books say.

Everyone is familiar with the story of "talking on paper". It is about Zhao Kuo, the son of Zhao She, the famous general of the Zhao State during the Warring States Period. He had read military books since he was a child, and he was very clear-minded when talking about military affairs on paper. Sometimes he was not even his father's opponent. He relies on his intelligence and wants to become the future commander-in-chief. Later, Zhao Kuo really became the commander-in-chief of an army of 400,000 people, but he was not very impressive for a few days. Because he had no actual combat experience and could only talk on paper, the entire army was annihilated.

In fact, there are many such examples in our lives. There is such a joke: A college student poured down the entire bag of washing powder while washing clothes. His mother asked him: "Why did you pour down the whole bag of washing powder?" He actually replied: "The book says to wash. You need to use washing powder for clothes, but they don’t say how much you need to use.”

Yes, fish cannot live without water, but there may not be fish wherever there is water. This is just like human beings cannot live without books, but what is said in books may not always be correct. Therefore, we should not just regard this cartoon as an interesting joke and laugh it off, but should correctly master the method of reading, be conscientious and diligent without being rigid, and be able to flexibly apply the knowledge in the book to practice at any time. A "nerd" who relies on books for everything.
