[Reading Notes] I read this book at home a year ago <how to read>

How to read

1. Two meanings of reading

1> the first meaning is that when we read newspapers, magazines, or other things, we can integrate them with our reading skills and wisdom. This kind of reading book can increase our information, but it cannot improve our understanding, because before we begin to read, our understanding is exactly the same as that of them.

2> the second meaning is that a person tries to read something he didn't know at the beginning. The level of this item is higher than the reading person. What the author wants to express can improve the reader's understanding. This kind of communication between the two sides is inevitable. Otherwise, no one can learn from others, whether through speeches or books. Here "Learning" refers to understanding more things, rather than remembering more information-the same level of information as you already know.

2. Reading is a guided learning.

The so-called absorption of information only knows that something has happened. To be inspired, you just need to understand what is going on: Why? What is the relationship with other facts? What are similar situations, where are the differences of the same type.
To be enlightened, in addition to knowing what the author says, he must understand what he means and why he says so.

Three learning methods: Guided Learning and self-discovery learning

4 reading level
1> Level 1 reading
Basic reading elementary reading

2> reading at the second level
Inspectional reading: "What kind of books is this-novels, history, or scientific papers?"
Viewing reading is the best and most complete reading within a limited period of time.

3> analytical reading)
Analysis and reading are complete and complete reading.

4> reading the topic at the fourth level. When reading theme, readers will read a lot of books, instead of a book, and list the related points between these books and propose a topic that is not discussed in all the books.

Few authors can reject this temptation, rather than reorganizing new and important ideas on the last few pages.

5. superficial reading
What is the right direction? The answer is a very important and helpful reading rule, but it is often ignored.
This rule is simple: when you first read a hard-to-read book, read it from the beginning to the end, and do not stop to query or think about anything you don't understand.

6. Active reading basics: four basic questions for a reader
1> what is this book talking about? Find out the topic of a book, how the author develops the topic in sequence, and how to gradually break down the subordinate key topics from the core topic.
2> what did the author elaborate on? You must find a way to find out the main ideas, statements, and arguments.
3> does this book make sense?
4> what does this book have to do with you? What is the significance of the information in the book.

7. How to make a book truly belong to you
Raise the problem and solve the problem.
Only by reading out what it means can we gain more benefits.
The role of Reading Notes

1> Stay awake.
2> if he knows what he is thinking, he can't say it. Generally, he doesn't know what he is thinking.
3> writing down your thoughts helps you remember the author's ideas. Here is your own ideas.
Top respect for the author: fully understand the author's meaning and express your different or identical views with the author.

8. cultivate reading habits

Here is another example. In this example, we don't want you to remember the title, but think about the meaning. Ji Peng wrote a very famous book, also known as long, is a book about the Roman Empire, he called this book "The History of the decline of the Roman Empire". Almost everyone will recognize the title of the book, and even many people will know the title even if they don't see it. In fact, "decline" has become a well-known term. Even so, when we asked the same group of well-educated young people about the age of 25, why the first chapter was called Anthony's empire map and force, they had no clue. They did not see the title of the entire book. Since it is called the "History of decline and death", the narrative should of course be written from the heyday of the Roman Empire until the fall of the Empire. They unconsciously converted the word "decline" into "Rise and Fall. They are confused that the book does not mention the Republic of Rome, the era that ended one and a half centuries before Anthony. If they have a clear title, even if they do not know it before, they can infer that the Anthony age is the peak of the Roman Empire. Reading the name of a book, in other words, allows readers to obtain some basic information before they start reading. But they did not do this, and even more people refused to look at unfamiliar books.

The so-called art or technique only belongs to the person who can develop habits and act according to rules. This is also a distinctive feature of artists or craftsmen in any field.
When talking about a technical person, we don't mean that he knows how to do it, but that he has developed the habit of doing it.

9 What can I learn from books?

1> (based on the title of the book) What is the category of books?
2> practical vs theoretical works
Theoretical works teach you what this is, practical works teach you how to do what you want, or what you think you should do.
Hou Jie's <in-depth introduction to MFC> is a theoretical work, because the majority of this book is about what MFC is, how to implement it, rather than how to use it to develop software.

After reading this article, I learned that Mr. Hou's book is still a practical book, because some partial theoretical parts of the book (Analysis of the principles of MFC) are only for better rule elaboration.
In the section on how to read practical books, the author writes practical books in two types. One of them, like a book, or a writing or driving guide, is basically explaining the rules. No matter what issues are discussed, the rules are explained. Few such books have great works. Another kind of practical books is mainly about the principles of rule formation. Many great economic, political, and moral giants belong to this category. This book belongs to the latter.

Classification of theoretical works: history, science, and philosophy.
History: chronotopic ).
Science: laws or general principles. scientists need to know how things happen in all or most cases, rather than what a historian wants to know about a particular event, it may occur at a specific time and place in the past.
Philosophy: philosophy pursues general truth, but the questions raised by philosophers are different from those raised by scientists.

Scientists rely on experiments or precise observation, While philosophers are just thinkers sitting in a rocking chair.


10 view a book

We found another advantage of using Vim. We can maintain a balance when x61 is placed on the thigh, without having to press the arrow key in the lower right corner or a little red dot...

The responsibility of readers is to find out the skeleton of a book.

Books are works of art: in addition to the exquisite appearance, there must be an integral content that is closer to perfection and more penetrating.
Verification of "overall feeling": you must use a few words to tell yourself, or others what this book is about.
Rules
(1) category of books.
(2) Use a single sentence or a few sentences (a short text) to describe the content of the entire book.
(3) list important chapters in the book to illustrate how they form an overall architecture in order.
(4) Find out the question asked by the author.

11 Relationship Between Reading and Writing

Writing and reading are two things, just like teaching and being taught.

12 The author elaborated on four rules

1> categories by book type and topic
2> tell the whole book in the simplest sentence
3> list important parts of the book in order and relationship. After the outline of the book is prepared, the outline of each part is also listed one by one.
4> find the question that the author is asking or the question that the author wants to solve.
When you use the above four rules to read a book or any book that is difficult to read, you have completed every stage of analysis and reading.

13-word vs. Meaning
Communication: A person tries to share his knowledge, judgment, and emotions with others (or animals or machines. Communication is successful only when both parties reach consensus on some things, such as sharing some information or knowledge with each other.
Community: A group of people with common knowledge.

The ultimate achievement pursued by the art of reading and writing is the consensus between the author and the reader.

14 Second phase of analysis and reading

1> finding common meanings
2> determine the author's subject (propositions)
The world of books is the same as the world of business. You must understand consensus and proposal.
A proposal is to declare his intention to do things in a certain mode.

The reader must first reach a consensus with the author to understand the subject of the author and the judgment he declares.

=== Chapter 9 determining the subject of the author ============================================== =

========================================================== ========

• Sentence and subject

This sentence is very exciting:
Great authors are often great readers, but this doesn't mean they read all the books. Reading is indispensable in our life. In many examples, they read less books than we do in college, but they read very well. Because they are proficient in the books they read, they can be comparable to the authors. They have the right to be called authoritative people. In this situation, it is natural that a good student will usually become a teacher, and a good reader will become an author.

I. Analysis of the first phase of reading: Find out the rules of what a book is talking about.
(1) categories based on the types and themes of books
(2) Use the simplest text to explain what the whole book is talking about.
(3) list the main parts in order and relevance. List the outline of the book and list the outline of each part.
(4) determine the problem that the author wants to solve.

Before using these rules, you can view and read the rules, which will help you apply them more.

Ii. Analysis of the second phase of reading: Release the content rules of a book.
(5) interpret the author's keywords and reach a consensus with him.
(6) grasp the author's important subject in the most important sentence.
(7) Know what the author's discussion is, find related sentences from the content, and then reconstruct the structure.
(8) determine which issues have been solved by the author and which issues have not been solved. Then judge which issues the author knows he has not solved.

3. Analyzing the third stage of reading: commenting on the rules of a book like communicating knowledge

A. General rules of smart etiquette
(9) do not criticize the entire sentence unless you have completed the outline architecture.
(10) do not compete for victory.
(11) Before making a comment, you must be able to prove that you have differentiated the true knowledge from your personal opinion.

B. special criteria for criticism
(12) prove the author's knowledge deficiency.
(13) prove the author's knowledge error.

* How to read a practical book
It is a failure to make a practical book practical to read. Read and practice!
Only action can solve the problem. Action can only happen in the current world, not in books.
The combination of rules and principles is the theory of things.
Theoretical Principles will summarize outstanding rules. Knowing why.

Subject vs. Discussion
The purpose is to explain the status of a thing, and the argument is to emphasize that it is true.

• What is an active reader?
An active reader not only notices words, but also sentences and paragraphs. In addition, there is no other way to discover the consensus, subject, and argument of an author.
Master the outline and interpretation intent, and intersection each other at the level of subject and discussion.

• Sentence and subject
Sentences and paragraphs are grammar units and language units. The subject and discussion are logical units, that is, units of thought and knowledge.

Doubt is the beginning of wisdom. learning from books is the same as learning from nature. If you cannot raise a question for an article, you may not expect a book to give you some insights that you did not have.

People usually pause for a sentence they are interested in, but do not pause for a sentence they are troubled.
What you want to pursue when you want to get an understanding in reading is not a novelty.
