An old Chinese saying goes that "He that travels far knows much." It implies that personal experience counts much. In contrast to this statement, however, a former president of Harvard University once wrote that "books... are the wisest of counselors..." Which is more important? The following are opinions of several netizens on this topic. Read the experts carefully and write an article of NO LESS THAN 300 words, in which you should:
1. summarize briefly the opinions;
2. give your comment.

They are both important, but in my opinion I have to disagree a bit with that former president of Harvard University. I don’t think that book knowledge is more important than experience. Yes it’s very helpful to know all sort of stuff from books and there are tons of things you can learn by reading. But nothing compares to real experiences. It’s great if you have knowledge about diverse stuff when you get to actually experience it. But if you just read all the time and never get to try anything it’s not that exciting... I’m not saying it’s a waste of time, but you should try applying what you read and try to live as much as possible. And also, people tend to understand more when they experience the actual thing described in the book. It’s indeed helpful to see and try all the things you read about to get a clearer view on what it’s referring to. Like in school... remember the physics class... (at least in my case) the teacher would talk and talk the whole hour about a certain effect, and it was a bit hard to understand what she meant, but when she showed us with a real machine, then I got a clearer perception on that theory and it was much easier to remember that way.

Well, both are pretty important, but I would actually say that experience is more important. Take driving for example. You can read about all the scenarios that might occur while you’re driving, but when actually thrown into the situation your mind would go totally blank and you would forget the proper way to handle the situation and perhaps make a critical error. Only experience can help you with something like that, because with experience you gain a faster reaction time and instinct to the things you have experienced before. Of course book knowledge is still very important, and learning how to balance and implement the two in your life would definitely be beneficial.

I believe that both are equally important. Too much of one is useless without the other. If you know everything about a subject but are unable to apply the knowledge because you do not have experience then you cannot do anything with your knowledge. On the other hand, if you have experience but do not know anything about a subject you cannot progress very far or improve upon your experience. Both are necessary to sustain success.

I think book knowledge outweighs the experience. When I went to nursing school we had to get a lot of book knowledge, and that knowledge is important because you need to know what to do and what to avoid. If you don’t have any theoretical knowledge about nursing you might accidentally harm the patients, simply because you aren’t aware of potential dangers etc. You need at least a basic knowledge about hygiene and similar things. And then put it into practice.

Real Life Experiences Outweigh Knowledge from Books In the excerpts, two persons put experience first as they believe people benefit more when they have what they learned put into practice; one holds that book knowledge together with experience constitutes success; the remaining one considers book knowledge matters more as practice needs book knowledge as a guide. From my perspective, knowledge from books has to be applied in real life to prove its value and real life experiences are far more important than knowledge from books. To begin with, knowledge from books normally cannot be fully understood until one experiences it in real life. One may read in books that love is a wonderful thing and it also hurts people. Having had this knowledge in mind, one may begin to believe that he knows about love. But not until the day comes when he really falls in love and feels the ecstasy and pain entangled with love can one truly understand the meaning of love. It’s the same with other things. Knowledge from books just seems shallower compared to personal experiences. Next, knowledge from books can be misleading and not necessarily true. Books can be outdated knowledge. If one sticks to them and refuses to study the ever changing real world, there can be no progress happening in the world. Great things are created, not learned. And it’s human creativity that guarantees our bright future. Finally, knowledge from books would be useless if we don’t apply them in our everyday life. The value of the knowledge in books is little when we just read to know. In conclusion, personal experiences count more than knowledge from books. It’s important that we college students stepped out the ivory tower to see the world around us. The essence of life can only be found by living in it.
