Reading tools, methods and tips.
阅读的工具、方式与重点。
Today, I will talk to you about three thing:
今天，我来谈一谈阅读的三个问题：
First, what tools can you use to read better?
第一，用什么工具进行阅读？
Second, what method is the best way to read?
第二，如何具体的进行阅读？
Third, what important tips can you use to read more efficiently?
第三，关于阅读，我有什么更重要的提示告诉大家。
Let’s start with different tools you can use to read more efficiently?
第一部分，我想告诉大家的是，我们用哪些工具来进行阅读呢？
First, instead of reading an actual hard copy of a book, I suggest you use the electronic form of a book.
相对于纸质的书籍，我们提出尽量用硬件和软件来学习。
You may be very comfortable reading traditional, cover-bound books.
大家可能非常习惯阅读纸质的书籍。
It’s still a nice way to read books. I still do it from time to time myself, to be honest. There’s something about holding a real book and turning the pages myself.
纸质书籍很好，我也很喜欢，如果在家我一定会阅读纸质书籍。
But there are definitely some challenges. They are hard to carry around, they take up space, and it’s hard to carry more than one with you at the same time.
可是，纸质书籍也有一些不便：它不便于携带，也不易于存放。
If you’re constantly moving around from place to place, hardcover books are not easy to take with you.
如果你经常在外面，处在移动性当中，纸质书不方便携带；
Some books can be quite heavy and it can be very inconvenient to hold with both hands.
也可能书很沉，你带了也没时间阅读；而当你有时间读的时候呢，又没有带。
If you have lots of books stored at home, it can be very difficult to find the book you want to read. And what if you want to search inside the book for a specific passage. That can be very challenging to do if you don’t have the page marked or if there is no index in the back of the book.
有的人有藏书的习惯，不过很多人是把纸质的书籍堆在家里。大量的书，找起来有点费事。
There’s a solution to every one of these challenges – the e-book!
现在是互联网时代，我们建议大家用电子书来进行学习。
There are many electronic book apps in the iphone and iPad Apple stores, such as Duokan Reader, WeiChat Reading, and Kindle which is developed by Amazon.
手机和iPad上的有很多电子书的应用，比如：多看阅读，微信读书，亚马逊开发的Kindle APP。
You can also listen to books through the Ximalaya app. Now, many books are dictated to Ximalaya, such as my book Best Use of Time, which you can find on the Ximalaya app.
你还可以用喜马拉雅来听书。现在很多书籍已经被很多人朗读之后，放在喜马拉雅的音频中，比如我的书《善用时间》，可以在喜马拉雅上听。
Therefore, I first suggest that you use these apps to read books electronically.
所以，我首先建议大家能用这些APP来阅读。
There are a few concerns that people have mentioned. If you read on your cell phone every day, people mistakenly believe that you’re playing a game on your phone, which may make it look like you’re not doing honest work.
但是如果你每天拿着手机阅读，大家误认为你就在玩手机玩微信，好像不务正业的样子。
You may fear hurting your eyes staring at the screen while reading an e-book.
你可能会怕看电子书伤眼睛，因为看手机的屏幕对眼睛不太好。
That’s the reason why Amazon created the Kindle. Kindle pushes books out to its e-reading device via an internet connection. You can purchase a Kindle on Amazon or TaoBao.
亚马逊就很聪明，它推出了硬件kindle，上亚马逊网站可以买到，淘宝也可以买到很多二手的。
The great thing about the Kindle is that it is not harmful to your eyes. That’s because it uses digital ink with a very low backlight built in. It feels very light and even has the feel of a real book.
kindle特别有意思，不伤眼睛，因为它是电子墨水屏，背光设计，也可以没有光，看起来完全像纸质书。
The Kindle will reduce distractions because you cannot install any other apps on it. There’s no temptation to switch to another app while reading.
在kindle上面不装其他的应用APP，因此，我们不会受到干扰，可以更安静地进行阅读。
I spend much of my time reading the Kindle.
我大量的时间都是用kindle来阅读的，这样就可以利用好碎片时间。
By having a Kindle with you at all times, you can make use of small spans of time that you get throughout the day.
积累下来，阅读的时间非常多。
Small pockets of time include while waiting for a delayed flight, getting through a long traffic jam and so on.
比如飞机晚点，等人，堵车等等碎片时间，都可以打开kindle阅读，真的是太方便了。
The Kindle is not very expensive… it costs from several hundred to one thousand yuan or under 100 dollars.
建议你也可以买一个，大概几百到1000多块钱，不算太贵。
The second thing I wanted to mention is how specifically should you read?
第二部分，我来谈谈具体怎么读书？
First, read with a purpose whether that be on demand reading or themed reading.
其实阅读并不是漫无目的看，你可以按需阅读，或是按主题来阅读。
On-demand reading is reading for a specific purpose. You’re looking specifically to solve a problem that you have recently encountered. There is something specific you’re looking for.
按需阅读，更多是从你近期遇到的问题，你想解决问题，你需要在哪里有特别明确的目的和目标进行阅读。
Theme reading on the other hand is when you read to gain general knowledge and context in a chosen field.
按照主题的阅读，更多是为了去积累你在某一个领域的能力。
However you choose to read, there must be some purpose.
如果仅仅是阅读，它的作用不会太大，只能起到一定了解的作用。
I suggest taking notes when you read if you want to be able to transform the knowledge you gain into a benefit in your personal and professional life.
如果是想对我们的工作和生活产生帮助的话，我会建议你阅读时一定是要做笔记。
There are several ways to take notes. You can create flow diagrams called mind maps. You can also simply take notes and convert it into a slide presentation in PowerPoint.
你可以做思维导图，文字的笔记，还可以把它转化成PPT，因为便于分享。
The key point is to organize the information into a logical pattern from your reading. Read with the intent of eventually using the information in some actionable way.
整理出阅读书籍的逻辑思维，这点是非常关键的。
You can make e-note if reading in app or kindle.
如果你用软件或是kindle阅读，可以做电子的标注。
For example, highlight specific sentences that are valuable or poignant and then write a few notes about how you will use that information.
比如我读了一本书，在文字上划一下，就可以生成一个笔记，还可以做文字的批注。
If you link your Evernote account to your e-reader, you can autosave your notes and then even share it with others making your learning experience collaborative. Remember that sharing information is one of the ways to help retain information you learn. This can be done in the Duokan reader.
在多看阅读的设置里面，可以关联印象笔记账号，自动保存到印象笔记，然后共享给他人。
For example, when reading in the Duokan Reader, I take notes and even occasionally “make a PPT” which automatically synchs to my Evernote app.
比如，我在多看上面读书，偶尔划一下，标注“做PPT”，它就自动生成一个笔记，这个笔记会同步到印象笔记。
Then I share the powerpoint with my colleagues via Evernote.
通过印象笔记共享给我的同事。
When my colleague wants to make a PPT, they’ll see my recent shared note and then add to it using their information. This way we all benefit from the knowledge of others.
我的同事想做PPT的时候，他就在印象笔记输入PPT3个字，可以看到我近期的阅读积累，作为素材的使用。
When making notes, it’s much easier to review the material over time. This helps us overcome the Forgetting curve.
做笔记还有一个好处，就是我们可以定期回顾。我们可以阶段性地来回顾学过的书籍的内容。
If you can combine the eight cycles in the Ebbinghaus Forgetting Curve you will remember much of the information you read. This scientific repetition is possible when you create notes as you read.
如果你能够结合我们在100讲里面讲的科学的重复，用艾宾浩斯的八个周期来重复的话，就会非常棒。
When studying your notes, or repeating through the phases of the Ebbinghaus curve, there’s no need to reread the original book. Instead read your sorted notes, mind maps, or PowerPoint.
重复的时候你不需要去再看原书，而是去看你整理过后的笔记，思维导图或是PPT，那就真的是实在太妙了。
The third point I want share with you is this. I want to specially emphasize that when we read we want to actively transform the passive knowledge into practical actionable work.
第三部分，我要特别跟大家强调的是，我们读书的目的是为了把外在的、大量的、显性的知识转化为内在的、隐性的知识，也就是内化我们的能力，其实重点还在于实践。
To read lots of books, the first step is to take notes in electronic form such as Evernote. Then, the second step is to organize and summarize the notes into PowerPoint, an article or even an audio recording which you can share with others.
读很多很多的书，第一步是能够整理，第二步把这些整理下来的输出成为你所表达的内容，比如PPT、文章、甚至是录成音频，把它分享给非常非常多的人。
When you share with others, you are reinforcing the material to yourself in a very positive way.
分享一次，你就复习了一遍。
You’ll learn again and again by sharing with others continuously.
分享给很多人，不断地分享，你就会学习很多遍。
I spent the last 7 years reading hundreds of books on time management, and have become an expert in the field.
我在过去10年里面，在前7年，阅读过大量在时间管理方面的书籍，我的进步蛮大的，但是相对现在来讲，那是非常有限的。
By sharing the material, I’ve learned just as much from others as I have from the content. Seeing these issues from the perspective of others has been extremely valuable.
直到后来的几年，我经常分享，遇到问题，再回到书里去找。
By continuously reading, organizing and summarizing into PowerPoint, I continue to increase the quantity and depth of knowledge in Time Management.
一遍一遍地重复阅读，最多的可能读了几十遍，每读一遍就有新的收获，然后我再把这些新的收获放在PPT当中，不断地去更新，不断地去分享，不断地去指导更多的人，这样我就学的越来越多。
The best way to study is to teach others to master the material. Reading, organizing, trying it yourself, and sharing with others all work to keep the knowledge firmly inside of your mind.
最好的学习，是教会他人。如果你能够结合阅读、搜索，结合自己的实践，把它总结、分享，那太棒了。
So get started today! Read using an e-reader, take notes with Evernote and share it to PowerPoint and get engaged with others! Best of luck to you!
今天我分享的是阅读的工具，阅读的方式以及我要给大家强调的重点。
