Guo Moruo's reading method

Guo Moruo once wrote a reading couplet: "If you don't read at three o'clock or five o'clock, your work will only be exposed to the cold." It means that reading must be Rely on your usual hard work and don't work overtime on a whim to achieve excellence. If you want to succeed, you must persevere and persevere. You must not be diligent sometimes and slack off sometimes, fishing for three days and drying the net for two days.

Hua Luogeng's reading method

Hua Luogeng summarizes the reading process into two stages: "from thick to thin" and "from thin to thick". When you truly have a thorough understanding of the content of the book, grasp the main points of the book, and master the spiritual essence of the book, reading will change from thick to thin. The more thoroughly you understand, the thinner it will feel. If during the reading process, you conduct an in-depth discussion of each chapter, add annotations and supplement reference materials on each page, then the book will become thicker and thicker as you read it. Therefore, reading is a two-way process from thick to thin, and from thin to thick

Gorky saves books

The world's literary giant Gorky has a deep affection for books and loves books as much as his life. Once, there was a fire in his room. The first thing he picked up were books, and he didn't consider anything else. He was almost burned to death trying to save the books. He said: "On the one hand, books enlighten my wisdom and soul, and on the other hand, they help me stand up in a muddy pond. If it were not for books, I would sink in this muddy pond, and I would be drowned by stupidity and obscenity."

Chiseling through walls to steal light

During the Han Dynasty, Kuang Heng was a very diligent and studious young man. Because his family was very poor, he had to do a lot of work during the day to earn money. Only at night could he sit down and read in peace. However, he couldn't afford candles, and he couldn't read when it got dark. Kuang Heng was heartbroken for this wasted time, and felt very painful inside. His neighbor's family was very wealthy, and candles were lit in several rooms at night to light up the house.

One day, Kuang Heng plucked up the courage and said to his neighbor: "I want to study at night, but I can't afford a candle. Can I borrow an inch of your house?" The neighbor always looked down on people who were poorer than his family, so he made a vicious sarcastic comment. Said: "Since you are too poor to buy a candle, why should you read?" Kuang Heng was very angry after hearing this, but he was more determined to read well. Kuang Heng returned home and quietly cut a small hole in the wall. The neighbor's candlelight came through the hole. With this faint light, he began to read books eagerly, and gradually read all the books at home. After reading these books, Kuang Heng felt that the knowledge he had mastered was far from enough, and his desire to continue reading more books became more urgent. There is a wealthy family nearby with many books. One day, Kuang Heng packed up his clothes and appeared in front of a wealthy family. He said to the master: "Please take me in. I will work for your family for free. Just let me read all the books in your family." The master was moved by his spirit and agreed to his request to borrow books. . Kuang Heng studied diligently in this way. Later, he became the prime minister of Emperor Yuan of Han Dynasty and became a famous scholar in the Western Han Dynasty.

Gu Yanwu supervised his own reading

"Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world." This well-known saying was first put forward by Gu Yanwu, a patriotic thinker and famous scholar in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties. . Gu Yanwu has been diligent in studying since childhood. He was enlightened at the age of 6 and started reading history books and literary masterpieces at the age of 10. When he was 11 years old, his grandfather Liyuan Gong asked him to finish reading "Zi Zhi Tong Jian" and warned: "Nowadays, some people want to save trouble and think that everything is settled after just browsing a book like "Compendium" , I think this is not worthwhile." These words made Gu Yanwu realize that studying and learning is an honest thing and must be treated seriously and faithfully. Gu Yanwu studied diligently, and he adopted the measure of "self-supervision of reading": first, he set himself a number of volumes that he must read every day; second, he restricted himself to copying the books he read after reading every day. After he finished reading "Zi Zhi Tong Jian", one book became two books; again, he required himself to take notes and write down his experiences every time he read a book. Some of his reading notes were later compiled into the famous book "Rizhilu"; finally, every spring and autumn, he would review the books he had read in the first half of the year, reciting them silently and inviting others to read them aloud, and discovered the differences. Check immediately. He stipulated that he should review 200 pages of classes in this way every day. He would never finish the review and never take a break.

Chairman Mao loves reading

For decades, Chairman Mao has been very busy, but he always finds time, even every second, to read and study. His former residence in Zhongnanhai is simply filled with books. There are books everywhere on the bookshelves in the bedroom, on the office desk, dining table, and coffee table. Except for the place where one person is lying on the bed, all of them are occupied by books. In order to study, Chairman Mao used all available time. During the few minutes of physical activity before swimming, I sometimes read a few poems by famous people. After swimming up, I didn't bother to rest, so I picked up the book again. He never wastes even a few minutes on the toilet. A reprint of "Selected Works of Zhaoming" by Chunxi of the Song Dynasty and some other books and periodicals were made by using this time to read a little bit today and a little bit tomorrow, intermittently.

When Chairman Mao went out to hold meetings or inspect work, he often wrote in the box. He ignored the vibrations and bumps of the train on the way. He always held a magnifying glass in one hand and pressed the page of the book with the other, reading without stopping. When I go abroad, just like in Beijing, there are books placed on the bed, on the office desk, on the coffee table, and on the dining table, and I read them whenever I have free time.

Although Chairman Mao was seriously ill in his later years, he still continued to read. He re-read a set of hardcover "The Complete Works of Lu Xun" that was brought to Beijing from Yan'an and published before liberation, as well as many other books and periodicals. Once, Chairman Mao's fever reached over 39 degrees, and the doctor did not allow him to read. He said sadly, I have loved reading all my life, but now you don't let me read, and you tell me to lie here and eat and sleep all day long. You know how uncomfortable I am! The staff had no choice but to take the books away again. Putting it next to him, he smiled happily.
