答案 Books: our friends, counselors and teachers The importance of books is almost universally agreed by all great minds and the benefits they bring to us are too many to numerate. As Charles W. Eliot put it, "Books are the quietest and most constant of friends: they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers. " It is not too exaggerating to say that books are to humans what water is to fish. Whenever exhausted by the hustle and bustle of daily life or distressed about certain problems, you can find peace in books. Just like loyal friends, books will always be there for you quietly, offering comfort and consolation. To be troubled by certain doubts is bound to happen to everyone during his life lime, yet these doubts are not always to be easily cleared by someone else, or the person concerned is not readily to be convinced. Then the most accessible and wisest counselors will be books, which will provide you with answers. Eventually, you will suddenly see the light after reading certain book or simply a few lines of a book. It is more than knowledge that we are gaining from books, since the formation of correct world outlook and values to a large extent owes to the constant appreciation of good books. The books are the most patient of all teachers, and in Bene Descartes’ words, "The reading of all good books is like a conversation with the finest men of past century. "
