Yoyo Mo's Chinese Cabin

大家好，我是 yoyomo

Hello, everyone. I'm yoyomo.

今天我们聊聊读书这件事

jīn tiān wǒ men liáo liáo dú shū zhè jiàn shì

Today, let's talk about the matter of reading books.

在中文里，读书可能有两个意思

zài zhōng wén lǐ ，dú shū kě néng yǒu liǎng gè yì si

In Chinese, it may have two meanings.

一个是阅读

yī gè shì yuè dú

One is "reading".

比如：我的业余爱好是读书，也就是，我的业余爱好是阅读

bǐ rú ：wǒ de yè yú ài hào shì dú shū ，yě jiù shì ，wǒ de yè yú ài hào shì yuè dú

For example: my hobby is reading books.

一个是学习

yī gè shì xué xí

The other is "studying".

比如，孩子要好好读书才能有出息呀，也就是，孩子要好好学习才能有出息呀

bǐ rú ，hái zi yào hǎo hǎo dú shū cái néng yǒu chū xi xiā ，yě jiù shì ，hái zi yào hǎo hǎo xué xí cái néng yǒu chū xi xiā

For example, children need to study hard to have a promising future.

今天我们说的是阅读，看书

jīn tiān wǒ men shuō de shì yuè dú ，kàn shū

Today, what we are talking about is reading, reading books.

我自己是一个喜欢读书的人

wǒ zì jǐ shì yī gè xǐ huan dú shū de rén

I myself am a person who likes reading books.

我看的书比大多数中国人多，

wǒ kàn de shū bǐ dà duō shù zhōng guó rén duō ，

I have read more books than most Chinese people,

但比很多厉害的人要少

dàn bǐ hěn duō lì hài de rén yào shǎo

but fewer than many outstanding people.

我看的书很杂，类型包括商业、历史、政治、心理、物理、传记、艺术 等等等等

wǒ kàn de shū hěn zá ，lèi xíng bāo kuò shāng yè 、lì shǐ 、zhèng zhì 、xīn lǐ 、wù lǐ 、zhuàn jì 、yì shù děng děng děng děng

The books I read are very diverse, and the types include business, history, politics, psychology, physics, biographies, art, and so on .

书籍充实了我的大脑

shū jí chōng shí le wǒ de dà nǎo

Books have enriched my mind.

在潜移默化间，让我成为有内涵的人

zài qián yí mò huà jiān ，ràng wǒ chéng wéi yǒu nèi hán de rén

Subtly, they have made me a person with connotations.

我的学历是硕士研究生

wǒ de xué lì shì shuò shì yán jiū shēng

My educational background is a master's degree.

但是我非常认同富兰克林的一句话

dàn shì wǒ fēi cháng rèn tóng fù lán kè lín de yī jù huà

But I highly agree with a saying of Benjamin Franklin.

上学不会影响我的学习

shàng xué bù huì yǐng xiǎng wǒ de xué xí

Going to school won't affect my study.

在中国，现在看书的人太少了，可以说是极少

zài zhōng guó ，xiàn zài kàn shū de rén tài shǎo le ，kě yǐ shuō shì jí shǎo

In China, the number of people who read books now is so small that it can be said to be extremely few.

我觉得有多方面的原因

wǒ jué de yǒu duō fāng miàn de yuán yīn

I think there are reasons from multiple aspects.

第一，教育的缺乏

dì yī ，jiào yù de quē fá

First, the lack of education.

第二，周围环境的影响

dì èr ，zhōu wéi huán jìng de yǐng xiǎng

Second, the influence of the surrounding environment.

第三，互联网的侵蚀

dì sān ，hù lián wǎng de qīn shí

Third, the erosion of the Internet.

大家每天都接触碎片化的信息

dà jiā měi tiān dōu jiē chù suì piàn huà de xìn xī

Everyone is exposed to fragmented information every day.

享受手机上的即时的快乐

xiǎng shòu shǒu jī shàng de jí shí de kuài lè

They enjoy the instant pleasure on their mobile phones.

我也不知道该怎么评价这种现状

wǒ yě bù zhī dào gāi zěn me píng jià zhè zhǒng xiàn zhuàng

I don't know how to comment on this current situation.

但是我自己乐于，也愿意多读书，读更多的书

dàn shì wǒ zì jǐ lè yú ，yě yuàn yì duō dú shū ，dú gèng duō de shū

But I myself am glad and willing to read many books, read more books.
