　　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 choose nonfiction titles because they explain how the world works. “Each books opens up new avenues of knowledge to explore,” Gates says.

　　答案：

　　一个五年级学生收到一份家庭作业，让他从一张职业列表上选择未来的职业道路。他勾了“宇航员”，但很快又在列表上加上了“科学家”，也打了个勾。这个男孩确信，如果他阅读量够大，那他可以探索许多他喜欢的职业道路。因此他什么都看，从百科全书到科幻小说，无一不读。他如此热衷阅读，以至于他的父母不得不提出了一条在饭桌上“不得阅读”的原则。

　　这个男孩就是比尔盖茨，他迄今也没停止阅读——甚至在他成为地球上最成功人士之一后也没有放下阅读。如今，他的阅读材料已经从科幻作品切换到工具书。近来，他还透露一年他会阅读至少50本非虚构作品。盖茨选择非小说类纪实作品是因为它们能够解释世界的运行规则。“每本书都能打开探索新知识的大门。”盖茨说道。
