既然书籍有不同的门类，如小说、传记、诗歌等，我们应该把它们区分开来，并从每种书中汲取它应当给我们提供的正确的东西；这话说起来固然容易，然而，很少有人要求从书籍中得到它们所能提供的东西。通常我们总是三心二意带着模糊的观念去看书：要求小说情节真实，要求诗歌内容虚构，要求传记阿谀奉承，要求历史能加深我们自己的偏见。如果我们读书时能抛弃所有这些成见，那将是一个极可贵的开端。我们对作者不要指手画脚，而应努力站在作者的立场上，设想自己在与作者共同创作。假如你退缩不前，有所保留并且一开始就批评指责，你就在妨碍自己从你所读的书中得到最大的益处。然而，如果你能尽量敞开思想，那么，书中开头几句迂回曲折的华丽所包含的几乎难以觉察的细微的迹象和暗示，就会把你引入到一个与众不同的人物的面前去。如果你深入下去，如果你去认识这个人物，你很快就会领悟作者正在给你或试图给你某些明确得多的东西。(35％)

The world economy has run into a brick wall. Despite countless warnings in recent years about the need to address a potential hunger crisis in poor countries and an energy crisis world-wide, world leaders failed to think ahead. The result is a global food crisis. Wheat, corn and rice prices have more than doubled in the past two years. And oil prices have increased more than three times since the start of 2004. These food-price increases, combined with increasing energy costs, will slow if not stop economic growth in many parts of the world and will even affect political stability. Practical solutions to these problems do exist, but we" 11 have to start thinking ahead and acting globally. Here are three steps to ease the current food crisis and avoid the potential for a global crisis. The first is to promote the dramatic success of Malawi, a country in southern Africa, which three years ago established a special fund to help its fanners get fertilizer and seeds with high productivity(产量). Malawi" s harvest doubled after just one year. An international fund based on the Malawi model would cost a mere $ 10 per person annually in the rich world, or $ 10 billion altogether. Second, the U. S. and Europe should abandon their policies of paying partly for the change of food into bio-fuels. The U. S. government gives farmers a taxpayer-financed payment of 51 cents per gallon of ethanol(乙醇)changed from corn. There may be a case for bio-fuels produced on lands that do not produce foods—tree crops, grasses and wood products—but there" s no case for the government to pay to put the world" s dinner into the gas tank. Third, we urgently need to weatherproof the world" s crops as soon and as effectively as possible. For a poor farmer, sometimes something as simple as a farm pond—which collects rainwater to be used in dry weather—can make the difference between a good harvest and a bad one. The World has already committed to establishing a Climate Adaptation Fund to help poor regions climate-proof vital economic activities such as food production and health care but—has not yet acted upon the promise.
