为什么人们需要多阅读?-网帖翻译-龙腾网

Oh, this needs a text book to include all the benefits of reading. I'll try to state the most important ones from my point of view.

哦，这需要一本包含所有阅读益处的教科书。我将从我的观点出发，阐述其中最重要的几点。

1.No matter what you read, even a children's book, would add to you somehow. It can add to your knowledge, it can add to your personality, it can add to your character or it can add to your life expertise without actually having to experience stuff. I remember up until I was 12 years old, me and my group of reader friends, agreed to each compile a list of any piece of information we learned from the novels we read. After the first 3 months, each of us filled a 400-page notebook with almost unique pieces of information from all fields of life.

1.无论你阅读什么，哪怕是一本儿童读物，都可以给你增加点什么。它可以增加你的知识，可以增加你的个性，可以增长你的性格或可以添加你的生活专业知识而不需要实际去经历一些东西。我记得直到我12岁的时候，我和圈子里喜欢阅读的朋友们约定每人列出一个清单，列出我们从小说中学到的任何知识。在最初的三个月后，我们每个人都在一本400页的笔记本上记下了生活中各个领域的几乎独一无二的知识。

2.It greatly enhances your linguistic skills. I can easily see the difference of language level between people who read and people who don't read.

2.它会大大提高你使用语言的技能。我很容易就能看出阅读的人和不阅读的人之间语言水平的差异。

3.It gives you perspective. It teaches you to have a point of view on everything.

3.它能开拓你的视野。它教会你对每件事都有自己的看法。

4.It grows your imagination wildly. Try, for example, reading Harry Potter before watching the movies and after. Before watching the movies, your imagination runs wild. You may imagine things, the movie makers themselves couldn't. Now, try again after watching the movies. You simply can't. While you're reading, you just can't imagine any image of harry other than Daniel Radcliffe, and so on.

4.他能无限增长你的想象力。可以这样尝试，比如说，在看电影之前和之后阅读哈利波特。在看电影之前，你的想象力非常丰富。你可以想象一些电影制作人自己想象不到的事情。现在，看完电影再试一次。你想象力匮乏了。当你阅读的时候，除了丹尼尔·雷德克里夫，你无法想象其他的哈利形象，等等。

I can keep going for a very long list of benefits, but I guess this is enough.

我可以列举一个非常长的好处清单，但我想就这已经足够了。

For many reasons. It teaches you grammar and spelling. It may be unfair, but if you say “ain’t” in a job interview you won’t get hired. (I know there’s spell check and ain’t is in some dictionaries).

有很多理由。它教会你语法与拼写。这可能不公平，但是如果你在面试中说“ain 't”，你就不会被聘用。（我知道有拼写检查但ain’t已经收录在了一些词典里）。

It’s fun. (and pleasure is good for your health).

阅读很有趣。（而快乐有益于你的健康）。

You could become a proofreader or editor.

你可以成为校对或编辑。

It helps you to see the “other” as a human being, whether that other is a person of a different “race,” country, religion, a different time, or whatever. It helps you understand how other people think and feel. This is especially true of fiction. In a diverse nation, this is good for democracy.

阅读帮助你把“其他人”当作一个人来看待，无论对方是一个不同的“种族”、国家、宗教、时代的人，或者其他什么。它能帮助你理解别人的想法和感受。在小说中尤其如此。在一个多元化的国家，这有利于民主。

It helps your imagination (science fiction and fantasy).

阅读有助于你的想象力（科幻小说）

It helps with attention, memory and background knowledge.

阅读有助于注意力、记忆力及背景知识。

Nonfiction, of course, helps you learn new facts and ideas.

非小说的散文文学，当然，可以帮助你了解新的事实和想法。

Today’s youth are probably better at multi-tasking than older people. However, sometimes you need to concentrate on one thing.

今天的年轻人可能比老年人更擅长多重任务处理。然而，有些时候你需要专注于一件事。

For many reasons.

原因有很多。

1.One huge one for me is to read older classics and realize the value that was instilled into people through the medium.

1.对我来说比较大的影响是通过阅读老的经典作品而认识到媒体给人们的灌输价值观。

2. It allows one to glimpse into how simple life really can be,, but how over complicated it has become.

2.阅读使人窥见生活可以有多么简单，，但它已经变得多么复杂。

3. It makes one realize that perspectives vary on a huge scale. Time changes perspective. Life changes perspective. Not everyone thinks as you do.

3. 阅读让人意识到，视角的巨大变化。时间改变了观点。生活改变了视角。不是每个人都和你想的一样。

4. It invites new ways of thinking. Which in turn should enrich ones existence. It helps with being stoic in the face of inevitable change and the chaos' that come along with that.

4.阅读引发了新的思考方式。这反过来又丰富人的生活。面对不可避免的变化和随之而来的混乱，阅读能帮助你泰然处之。

5. It helps with vocabulary. It should at least.

5. 阅读至少有助于提高词汇量。

There are so many benefits.

实在有很多好处。

Because reading enables us to view things, situations, time periods from other perspectives and broadens our view of the world as well as shaping our character. It is also vital for young kids to read in order to expand their verbal skills and vocabulary.

因为阅读使我们能够从其他角度看待事物、情境、时期，拓宽我们的世界观，也塑造了我们的品性。对于年幼的孩子来说，阅读对于扩大他们的语言技能和词汇量也是至关重要的。

Jeffrey Keehr
Because it gives one a solid foundation from which to view all events. Human beings have changed very little over the last 2000 years. We are the killer species. That is why we survived and it will be our undoing.

因为阅读为我们观察所有事件提供了坚实的基础。在过去的2000年里，人类几乎没有变化。我们是嗜杀物种。这就是我们幸存下来的原因，也是我们灭亡的原因。
