Even if books are not equal to me, at least they are close to friends, right? Read what books, that is, to whom. As the ancients said, "you don't know who you are, but you see your friends.". In my opinion, it's OK to say that "I don't know who I am, but I see the book.". To know a person (of course, those who can read a few books in broken prose) can guess who his friends are as long as you look at what he usually reads. If there are many works with thoughts, taste and weight on the shelf, it is natural that "there are great scholars talking and laughing, and no white men in communication". On the contrary, if you read all kinds of games, you will inevitably get some of them. It's not that other people's products must be bad, at least their taste is very suspicious.
人总是愿意有些品位的。提高修养和品位,也是不少人读书的目的和动机之一。如果读来读去,品位没提高,反倒弄得俗气了,岂非南其辕而北其辙?
People are always willing to have some taste. It is also one of the aims and motives of many people to improve their accomplishment and taste. If you read it back and forth, and you don't improve your taste, but it's tacky, isn't it the same way to the South and the same way to the north?
这就要有所选择。
This requires a choice.
选择也不易。谁来选,怎么选,都是问题。按照导师和准导师们的选择照单全收是不行的。那个靠不住。媒体上的排行榜当然也靠不住。就算是什么“影响世界历史的××本书”,也未必就是最佳选择。过去影响了世界历史的,现在就一定还影响?再说影响世界历史,又关我们什么事?说到底,读书毕竟是每个人自己的事情。自己的事,怎么能让别人来包缆?岂非“包办婚姻”?《中华读书报》的记者在调查“名著导读”一类书籍的销售情况时,一位读者张先生就明确表示他不读,因为感觉像是“第三者插足”。“导读”之类的“循循善诱”尚不能接受,况乎“越俎代庖”的替人选书?
