47.【题干】A fifth grader gets a homework assignment to select his future career path from a list of occupations. He ticks "astronaut" but quickly adds "scientist" to the list and selects it as well. The boy is convinced that if he reads enough, he can explore as many career paths as he likes. And so he reads-everything from encyclopedias to science fiction novels. He reads so fervently that his parents have to institute a "no reading policy" at the dinner table.
That boy was Bill Gates, and he hasn't stopped reading yet-not even after becoming one of the most successful people on the planet. Nowadays, his reading material has changed from sci-fi and reference books: recently, he revealed that he reads at least 50 nonfiction books a year. Gates chooses nonfiction titles because they explain how the world works.
"Each book opens up new avenues of knowledge to explore."-Gates say.
【答案】一个五年级的学生得到一份家庭作业,作业要求是从一系列职业中选择自己未来的职业道路。 他在"宇航员"那一项后面画了勾,但很快自己给名单增加了"科学家"这一项,然后也打了个勾。男孩相信,只要他读得书够多,他尽可以探索各种自己喜欢的职业道路。于是他真的读了很多书,从百科全书到科幻小说,各种书读了个遍。他对读书是如此有激情(痴迷),以至于他的父母不得不制定"吃饭时不许读书"的规矩。
那个男孩就是比尔·盖茨,时至今日,他依然没有停下读书的脚步,甚至在他已经成为这个地球上最成功的人士之一,也依然如此。现如今,他读的书已不再是科幻小说和参考书:最近,他透露自己每年至少要阅读50本非小说类书籍。盖茨之所以选择非小说类作品,是因为这些书诠释了这个世界是如何运作的(的运作方式)。盖茨说:"每本书都为我推开了一扇新知的大门。"
