Reading notes of "Yue Reader"

Four categories of reading

1. Staple food - reading that solves survival needs. Reading in order to find "direct solutions" to academic, career, work, life, physical, psychological, and some "real-life problems" is staple reading. Reading as a staple food can give us this feeling of satiety. Not only is there nothing wrong with it, it can even be said to be very good. But the pitfalls of staple reading are also here. The satiety it brings, if you are not careful, will make people mistakenly think that this is very nutritious and that this is the whole diet. This misunderstanding will produce two risks. The first risk is that he will ignore the essence of staple food and not realize the shortcomings of staple food. To talk about "reading for survival needs", we must know that survival knowledge is constantly changing with time and space. The second risk is that he will miss out on too many other delicious reading possibilities.

2. Food-Ideological Needs Reading It seems that it does not talk about direct solutions to practical problems, but it will let you understand the essence of these problems or phenomena from an indirect, but very fundamental direction. What. Many books on literature, philosophy, science, history, and art fall into the category of "reading for ideological needs." Especially, I would say, the classics are always the most important. Diet for survival needs, because we are looking for "direct" solutions to "real problems", it is easier for us to know where our needs are. However, the diet that requires thinking is usually more time-consuming and laborious because it pursues relatively deep crystallization. Therefore, the first pitfall of food reading is that it can easily put people off. Many people have been unable to cross the gap for a long time. They either regard delicious food as a daunting journey, or they can only salivate from the smell of delicious food. The second trap of reading about food is that just because it is relatively easy to put people off, many people don’t know how to cook or enjoy it even if they are exposed to it.

3. Fruits and vegetables - reading dictionaries, encyclopedias, maps and other reference books for tool needs.

4. Sweets - reading for leisure needs. Most comics, including various types of novels such as martial arts, mystery, and romance, photo albums, gossip insiders, etc., are all sweet reading for your entertainment and leisure.
