I don't know if you have such an experience when reading: after reading a book, we spend a lot of time extracting good words and sentences and drawing mind maps to sort out the author's knowledge framework, but in the end we don't remember much knowledge.
This is how I used to read books.
Until I saw Zhou Ling say in the book "The Awakening of Cognition": "We don't need to fully master other people's knowledge system, we just need to master the knowledge that can touch us most and is closest to our needs."
This sentence made me wake up and changed the way I read and take notes.
Ba Jin once said: "Just browsing letters, words and pages, not reading. Reading and memory are not reading. Reading should have feelings, beauty, good words for others, integration and practice. " "
From Ba Jin's words, we can understand that browsing a book is not called reading, nor is it called rote learning. The real way to read is to choose a paragraph that touches you, then write down your feelings and put them into action, and make full use of the knowledge in the book.
As Wan Weigang said, real knowledge is not what you know, but that you can use it to help yourself make correct judgments and choices and solve practical problems.
Since I started studying at the beginning of the year, I have read more than 60 books, walked through many pits and tried many ways to read notes.
Combined with my own reading experience, I found that the following reading notes are very suitable for reading Xiaobai. I will write them down and share them with you.
In fact, as a reader, we don't have our own knowledge system at first, but we need to accumulate it bit by bit in peacetime, and the following methods are very suitable for us to accumulate knowledge system.
The note-taking method of scallion hot pot was put forward by Japanese writer Xiao Ye Xuanzhi.
It is introduced in detail in the book How to Read a Book Effectively: Super Practical Note Reading Method.
Onion tuna hotpot is a Japanese cuisine with onion and tuna as raw materials. Onions and fish in hot pot are like excerpts and comments in notes.
So how to use the hot pot note method of onion tuna?
Step 1: Write a six-digit date in a larger font. The clearer the better. Leave a blank line for each broken line and two blank lines between paragraphs, which is more convenient to write and to reread, insert and modify later.
The second step is to extract and write comments.
First of all, reread the contents marked with a pen and strictly screen out the parts you think you can read several times. Read it five or six times, and there won't be too much content in the end.
Then, leave a blank at the end of the extracted article and write your own comments. Excerpts are marked with ",",and feelings and supplementary explanations expressed in your own language are marked with ""as a distinction, and are marked alternately before each paragraph.
If you write the reading notes of "Onion Hotpot" on paper, it will be in the following format:
After ""is an excerpt. Be careful not to omit it and keep it original. After that, you will have your own comments and write some thoughts, thoughts or supplementary explanations about the excerpt.
This method of taking notes is very simple, and it is suitable for Xiaobai, who has just started studying. Whether it is a literary book or a practical book, it is suitable for extracting golden sentences.
The integration method without reading is a learning method I saw in the book Thinking hard written by Cheng Jia.
The so-called "fuse of not reading" means that once you see something that can inspire you when you are reading, it will trigger the fuse and stop reading immediately.
After stopping, take out a pen and paper, or open a computer document and ask yourself questions.
Then look at these questions, think and write down your answers.
This reading method is suitable for people who lack thinking when reading. Taking notes in this way can cultivate our thinking ability.
If you want to focus on a fragment of the text. RIA post-it notes reading method can be used, and RIA post-it notes reading is introduced in detail in teacher Zhao Zhou's book "This is enough reading".
Let's see how to use this method.
Finally, after reading the book, take out all A2 notes and stick them on the desk or wall to remind yourself to practice.
This method of taking notes is suitable for practical books. After reading it, you can write down your action list and put it into practice.
This method of reading notes was put forward by Zhou Ling in his book The Awakening of Cognition.
The author Zhou Ling argues that when reading, the only thing to do is to find the contact point.
Then mark the places that move you, and write down a lot of ideas that can be related to it in the blank. After reading the book, leave it for a few days, and then ask yourself, "What impressed you most about this book?"
This point can be a theory, a case or even a sentence. As long as you really touch yourself and can make real changes, then this is worth recording and writing down.
As for the other knowledge in the book, we don't need to entangle too much, and forget it when we forget it.
This is also the reading method I am practicing. When reading a book, I don't need to master all the knowledge in the book, just remember what touched me.
The strongest reading note method is what I saw in the video shared by Tina, a blogger of Little Red Book, and it is also used by many partners in the community. Specific practices are as follows:
Look: you can extract the original text, or you can refine and summarize the phenomena you see and express them in your own words.
Significance: explain the knowledge with your own cases and make this clear.
Thinking: look for the connection between knowledge and knowledge. If there are contrasts and conflicts, thinking will be deeper, and the focus will be on connecting with real life.
Ok: if you think about it, what will you do?
This method is suitable for making cards and accumulating your own knowledge system through cards.
The history of Indotown has created a way to take reading notes-breathing reading.
He introduced this method of reading notes in detail in his book Fast Reading.
What is breathing reading?
If reading is "sucking", then taking reading notes and writing book reviews is "calling".
The specific practice of "breathing reading" is:
1. "One-line acquisition"
When reading, find the most charming and wonderful fragments and record them, that is, extract them. You'd better repeat the contents of the book in your own words when you extract it. Because doing so can not only test whether you understand, but also deepen your impression.
2. "first-line essence"
After reading a book, you already have a collection of excerpts about the book through "One-line Collection". Select "the most essential line, only one line" from these excerpts, and this line condenses all the values of this book.
Ying Nan Dunshi said, "Reading is not a measurement, but more like treasure hunting."
This last sentence must be your favorite line with particularly deep feelings and many ideas, that is, 1% you met in this book.
3. "Single-line comments"
If you find the "first-line essence", that is, 1% chance encounter, then you should write down the reasons and feelings of the "first-line essence" you extracted and comment on it.
When commenting, you can relate to your own life, reading experience, other people's experiences, and even the stories you read … so that what you read is related to your own life experience.
This reading method is suitable for fast reading and improving your reading ability. A book only remembers the most essential paragraph, a concept, an idea and a story.
This reading method is learned through sharing with literary friends in the community.
This method was invented by a famous classical teacher.
He also advocated the card reading method. A card can be written in four parts: original sentence, core idea, personal experience and action guide.
Please see the figure below for details:
This card contains reading, thinking, action and output. It is especially suitable for Xiao Bai who encourages beginners to read efficiently. I usually use this similar template when I take notes.
The above seven reading methods are my own reading experience in the past year, which is more suitable for beginners.
In fact, it is not difficult to find out that although these reading methods are not the same in words, they are all the same in essence, telling us that reading notes should have reading, thinking, association, action and output.
There are so many ways to read, just choose one that suits you and apply it to the extreme.
It doesn't matter what method you use, what matters is what you learn from books.
