读书是一场发现之旅——the process of learning something by research, by investigation, or by reflection, without being taught.把一本书当作以为老师，向他学习；跟一本书提问，在书中寻找答案，完成跟作者的交流。
How to Read a book
作者: Mortimer J. Adler / Charles Van Doren
出版社: Touchstone
副标题: The Classic Guide to Intelligent Reading
出版年: 1972-8-15
“Your success in reading it is determined by the extent to which you receive everything the writer intended to communicate.”
一本书读的好不好取决于你获得多少作者想要传达的信息
读书前先问自己几个问题？
1. 你读一本书的目的是什么？
2. 同样一本书，为什么读书效果千差万别
3.读一本书的时候你都思考什么？
4.读完一本书，你是记住了作者的观点，还是可以给别人解释这些观点？
世界上的文盲大概可以分为三类：
第一类文盲：不识字
第二类文盲：识字但是没脑子
第三类文盲：有脑子没文化
（摘自至道学宫，我认同这一观点）
三种文盲，最可怕的是第二种。作者在书中有类似的观点:
“The second is the ignorance of those who have misread many books. They are, as Alexander Pope rightly calls them, bookful blockheads, ignorantly read. There have always been literate ignoramuses who have read too widely and not well. The Greeks had a name for such a mixture of learning and folly which might be applied to the bookish but poorly read of all ages. They are all sophomores.” P11
这里所说的read widely and not well, 就是读书但愚蠢的人，半瓶子醋的人,这些人读书止于资讯，止于思考。
Adler告诉我们如何避免成为这样的人。
读书的目的
读书的目的有三中：
获取资讯
提高理解力，（学习，）
娱乐
本书探讨的读书目的不是简单的获取资讯，比如读杂志，报纸等等，本书探讨的是提升理解力的阅读。
主动阅读
“Since reading of any sort is an activity,all reading must to some degree be active.Completely passive reading is impossible; we cannot read with our eyes immobilized and our minds asleep. Hence when we contrast active with passive reading, our purpose is, first, to call attention to the fact that reading can be more or less active, and second, to point out that the more active the reading the better.One reader is better than another in proportion as he is capable of a greater range of activity in reading and exerts more effort. He is better if he demands more of himself and of the text before him.”
严格意义上讲，没有被动阅读，别人比你读都好是因为比你读书主动。
阅读是一场发现之旅，离不开观察，记忆，想象，分析，思考。
一本书就是一个老师
一本好书，就是一个好的老师，学会向他提问，学习，增强我们的理解力。
“Therefore if we are disposed to go on learning and discovering, we must knowhow to make books teach us well. That, indeed, is the primary goal of this book.”
第一章思维导图
子曰：学而不思则罔，思而不学则殆。
时刻提醒自己，阅读不能止于资讯，止于思考。
动笔有助于思考，这月打算多多动笔。
