You may want to ask, why do you want to talk about this? The reason is very simple, and the key lies in the word "total" .. This means that there will always be benefits, not only benefits. Therefore, it is necessary to demonstrate that reading is beneficial rather than harmless. (Don't be entangled in this, or you will lose. The reason will be understood after reading it)
First of all, it is beneficial to good books, which is understood by everyone. So the argument is: As far as the benefits of reading are concerned, it is great enough to make people fully realize, repent, move towards a bright road and succeed; Small enough to learn several writing methods, a few words, and even a few words. These are the benefits of reading, which can't be denied. Therefore, we can introduce several points to prove that bad books also have some benefits:
First, as long as they are called bad books, they will definitely affect people's character and make them go astray. But please think about it, if those bad books can't produce a certain * * sound with readers, they will make people go deep into it. If the book's structural layout, expression, conception and description, language and words are all unremarkable,
even the general "running account"-like composition is not as good as it is, then how can it resonate with readers? Therefore, no matter how bad it is, you can learn at least some writing methods in the so-called bad books, and you can know a few words at worst. Can you say it is useless?
Second, whether it is a bad book or a good book, it is judged according to whether the advantages outweigh the disadvantages or the disadvantages outweigh the advantages. That is to say, a bad book also has certain benefits.
Third, Laozi in ancient China had a view that everything has its two sides. Since a bad book is harmful, it must have its benefits.
Fourth, maybe you want to say, "Suppose there is a bad book with unbearable content. Will you go to see it? ~ ~ ~ Since I won't go to see it, even the premise of "opening the book" is gone. How can I talk about whether opening the book is beneficial or harmful?
Fifth, although you can cite a lot of examples of depravity, madness and crimes committed by reading books, what does this mean? It can only show that the reader's own mentality is not right. It belongs to the mentality problem, and can't be blamed on the book. Can someone blame the knife for killing people with a knife?
Therefore, as long as reading is beneficial, no matter how big or small it is, it can be inferred that "opening books is beneficial" must be established.
As for "opening books is not necessarily beneficial", it is a neutral word, half of it. If the argument is "open-book is harmful", then according to some arguments just now, it can naturally be established, but it would be wrong to say "useless". So, on this issue, the opposing argument is only half right. (And this half is still a positive argument).
Since the positive forum is certain to be established, and the opposing argument is only half right, then what is the reason for arguing? Obviously, the square is invincible!
and: the source: Song and Wang Bizhi's "A Talk on a Swallow and a Literati". Emperor Taizong read three volumes of "Yu Lan" on a daily basis, so he made up for it in his spare time. He said, "Opening books is beneficial, but I don't think it's a waste."
Interpretation: "Opening a book" means opening a book, which means reading. Metaphor is good for reading.
story: when Zhao Kuangyin, the great ancestor of Song Dynasty, established the Song Dynasty, there were still some separatist regimes in various places. The task of unifying the whole country was not completed until his younger brother Zhao Guangyi became emperor. After Zhao Guangyi acceded to the throne, he was renamed Zhao Guangling, known as Song Taizong in history. After Song Taizong unified the whole country, it was determined to carry forward the traditional culture and ordered to sort out all kinds of ancient books. At the same time, it also attaches importance to the collection of various ancient cultural materials. During the Taiping period (976-983). Ordered the compilation of three kinds of books: Tai Ping Guang Ji, Tai Ping Yu Lan and Wen Yuan Ying Hua, thus making important contributions to the preservation and development of China's cultural heritage.
Seven or eight out of ten ancient books quoted in Taiping Yu Lan are now unreadable. Therefore, it can be said that it is a collection of cultural knowledge before the Northern Song Dynasty. The original name of this book is Taiping Compilation. After the compilation, Song Dazong attached great importance to it and stipulated that he should read three volumes every day and read them all after one year. Therefore, it was renamed "Taiping Yu Lan", which means a book read by the emperor himself during the Taiping and Xingguo years.
Song Taizong's political affairs are very busy, and he often fails to read this book as planned because of other things, so he makes up reading in his spare time. The courtiers were afraid that he would read for too long, which would affect his health. Taizong said, "As long as you open the book to read, you will get benefits, so I don't feel tired."
Tanggula Mountain is endless, which is the source of blood for you and me; The fire in the dragon bone marrow shines, which is the source of wisdom for you and me; A frame of Five Thousand Years Up and Down, that is the spiritual source of you and me. Books are the crystallization of human wisdom. As the ancients said, it is beneficial to open books.
Hold a frame of books and read 5, historical events; Taste a pot of tea, and you can travel 8 times. You don't have to rush in, so you can watch Chu and Han go to war. You don't need to snow, so you can
listen to the teacher's inculcation. Many students have been studying Confucian classics hard since childhood, and they are willing to hang their heads and feel bitter, in order to enrich their knowledge system, and this is the most fundamental way to "open books." Cao Xueqin "read it for ten years and added and deleted it five times" before he became a "masterpiece of the red chamber"; Ji Xiaolan won the title of "the first gifted scholar in the world" by "reading a lot of books and wandering around the sea of books" ... They all got the greatest benefit from "opening books".
The ancients said, "Those who always open books often learn from the past". It can be seen that opening books can also make people avoid repeating the mistakes of their predecessors. Reading "Ten Thoughts on admonishing Taizong" can warn yourself that "if you think of high risks, you will be modest and rush to pasture yourself; If you are afraid of overflowing, you will think of rivers and seas. " After reading The Analects of Confucius, we know that we should "save ourselves three times and be unfaithful for others". Make friends without believing? Can't you learn it? " The ancients incorporated their own life experiences, feelings and experiences into the book, so it is beneficial to open the book.
"Open book" can cultivate self-cultivation, cultivate sentiment and improve the spiritual realm of life. Su Shi, who is heroic and sings "river of no return, the waves escape", pioneered the "bold school" and is a well-deserved "spiritual aristocrat". Li Yian, who is "thinner than a yellow flower", weaves the shyness and disappointment of the "gentle" family; "moonlight in its groves of pine, stones of crystal in its brooks". Tell Wang Wei's "Zen-like realm"; "I laughed at the sky from the horizontal knife and went to stay in the liver and gallbladder." Tan sitong sang, "It is hard for the country to live and die, so why not avoid it because of good fortune?" Singing the patriotic enthusiasm ... In the mighty long history, the ancients stirred up waves with their spirits. You just need to wander among them, and you can feel the same. It can be seen that opening books is beneficial.
Gorky said, "Books are the ladder of human progress." Open-book readers have existed since ancient times, and there are "Mr. Wuliu" who "don't ask for a solution" to read the law; There is also the reading method of "scrutinizing every word and speaking like a book" advocated by Zhu Guangqian; There are three kinds of reading realms called by Wang Guowei ... But in the end, reading books is beneficial, because reading books is not only the source of knowledge, but also a lesson for the ancients, and it is also a method of self-cultivation.
