英语六级晨读美文100篇:Owning Books(35)_大学英语听力

　　so that if you sit alone in the room in the firelight,

　　you are surrounded with intimate friends.

　　The knowledge that they are there in plain view is both stimulating and refreshing.

　　Books are of the people, by the people, for the people.

　　Literature is the immortal part of history;

　　it is the best and most enduring part of personality.

　　Book-friends have this advantage over living friends;

　　you can enjoy the most truly aristocratic society in the world whenever you want it.

　　The great dead are beyond our physical reach,

　　and the great living are usually almost as inaccessible.

　　But in a private library,

　　you can at any moment converse with Socrates or Shakespeare or Carlyle or Dumas or Dickens.

　　And there is no doubt that in these books you see these men at their best.

　　They laid themselves out, they did their ultimate best to entertain you,

　　to make a favorable impression.

　　You are necessary to them as an audience is to an actor;

　　only instead of seeing them masked,

　　you look into their innermost heart of heart.
