When we read, another person thinks for us: we merely repeat his mental process. It is the same as the pupil, in learning to write, following with his pen the lines that have been penciled by the teacher. Accordingly, in reading, the work of thinking is, for the greater part, done for us. This is why we are consciously relieved when we turn to reading after being occupied with our own thoughts. But, in reading, our head is, however, really only the arena of someone else’s thoughts. And so it happens that the person who reads a great deal—that is to say, almost the whole day, and recreates himself by spending the intervals in thoughtless diversion, gradually loses the, ability to think for himself; just as a man who is always riding at last forgets how to walk.
Such, however, is the case with many men of learning: they have read themselves stupid. For to read in every spare moment, and to read constantly, is more paralyzing to the mind than constant manual work, which, at any rate, allows one to follow one’s,own thoughts.
Just as a spring, through the continual pressure of a foreign body, at last loses its elasticity, so does the mind if it has another person’s thoughts continually forced upon it. And just as one spoils the stomach by overfeeding and thereby impairs the whole body, so can one overload and choke the mind by giving it too much nourishment. For the more one reads, the fewer are the traces left of what one has read; the mind is like a tablet that has been written over and over. Hence it is impossible to reflect; and it is only by reflection that one can assimilate what one has read if one reads straight ahead without pondering over it later, what has been read does not take root, but is for the most part lost.
From all this it may be concluded that thoughts put down on paper are nothing more than footprints in the sand: one sees the road the man has taken, but in order to know what he saw on the way, one requires his eyes.
It’s important to take time to think about what we’re reading and not merely assume the thoughts of the author. We need to digest, synthesize, and organize the thoughts of others if we are to understand. This is the grunt work of thinking. It’s how we acquire wisdom.
The process of pupils learning to write is just like reading in that______.
选项
A、pupils allow another person to think for themselves while writing
B、pupils learn how to write with the help of their teachers
C、pupils should avoid being affected by their teacher’s thoughts
D、pupils write too much to reflect about their own wprks
答案
A
解析
推理题。根据题干定位到第一段。关键旬:When we read,another person thinks for us.“当我们阅读时,有另一个人为我们思考。”It is the same as the pupil,in learning to write,fol—lowing with his pen the lines that have been penciled by the teacher.“学生学习写作的过程也是一样,他的笔端随着老师的思路游走。”学生学习写作时,跟随着老师的思路,而不是自己思考,读书的时候也是有作者替读者思考,所以阅读和学生学习写作的共同点就是:都有另外一个人替他们思考。所以[A]选项正确。[B]选项“学生在老师的帮助下学习写作”,这是一个客观事实,但并不是与阅读的共同点,所以该选项可排除。[C]选项所表述的观点也不是学生学习写作与阅读的共同之处,可排除。[D]选项内容在文中并未涉及,故可排除。
