【正确答案】正确答案: On a True Reader On the subject of reading, there are so many comments and good advice. While, as to a reader, we still have so many things to think about. From the quotation above, just like British writer Virginia Woolf had said "the true reader is essentially young...he is open minded and communicative, to whom reading is more of the nature of brisk exercise in the open air than of sheltered study; he trudges the high road. " Then what exactly a true reader should be? From the literal meaning, whoever does the things about reading could be called a reader, no matter what kinds of materials one is reading. Reading makes knowledge, however, with carefully choosing and managing, the things you have read can really bring you incredible achievements. In general, a true reader possesses the following characteristics. First of all, one should be accustomed to reading, not for necessity of learning or something else but for need of one"s heart. Whenever reading, he would feel hob-and-nob, forgetting all the bothering and hurting, as a dying person in the desert suddenly catching on water. Second, one should form one"s own style in reading, choosing one"s favorite to read as well as deleting those unapprecipitated ones, just like a famous star who always knows the kind of dressing that fits the best. Also, one thing a true reader disdains to do is to put so-called best-sellers in the shelf, otherwise one could be only a book consumer in the popular culture market. Third, a true reader is a fonder symbolized by noble tasting in classical and ever-lasting books. "Reading makes a full man; conferences a ready man..." , only when we become true readers can we become full and ready, just like Bacon said. Among the three points above, the most important thing falls on the last point. Sometimes we have some misunderstandings of classic. Classical books refer to the attractive and beautiful ones that we will never forget about, and never would we abandon them no matter how many times we have chewed them. And whenever we read it again, we can always find something new and sweet, something that illumes us, and instructs us. A simple fairy tale book can be a classic, and so does a novel; also, a verse can be an ever-lasting classic and so does a short poem. Anyhow, a true reader cannot be defined by how many books one has read, but by what kind of books one loves to read; not by how many profound words one has read, but by how many classical words one remembers.
