The Etiquette of Talking Back
读了这么久的书，几乎还都都做不到interpretative reading.
Reading a book is a kind of conversation.
You may think it is not conversation at all, because the author does all thetalking and you have nothing to say. Ifyou think that, you do not realize your opportunities and obligations as a reader.
阅读的主要目的是从书中获得知识，但它更像一种交流。
开始的时候，书是老师，将相关的知识，娓娓道来，读者是学生，需要细细“听”；
当学生把作者的观点都弄清楚了，或者是通过阅读一本书，或者是一系列的书，最终要用批判的眼光看世界，取其精华，去其糟粕，但前提是先弄懂作者的意图。
在取和去之间，可能会与作者产生“辩论”，但不要让辩论影响了学习和情绪，阅读最终的目的在于向作者取经，无意义的辩论只能让人忽视掉作者要说的重要的东西。
《How to Read a Book》ⅩⅡ
Thus, the author mentioned three maxims to state the conditions of acritical reading andthe manner in which the reader should proceed to talk back.
The first requires the reader to complete the task of understanding before rushing in.
The second adjures him not to be disputatious or contentious.
The third asks him to view disagreement about matters of knowledge as remediable.
After studying this chapter, l hope we all can understand what is reading and what is talking back.
