Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body.
阅读之于心灵,犹如运动之于身体。
There are two things that every person should pay special attention to ─ the body and the mind. Exercising the body is as important as exercising the mind. When we exercise, we strengthen our bodies. In the same way, when we read, we strengthen and develop our minds. As the saying goes, “Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body.”
每个人都应注意两件事──身体及心灵。锻炼身体与锻炼心灵一样重要。我们运动时,便增进体能。同样地,我们阅读书籍,便强化和开展我们的心灵。俗云:“阅读之于心灵,犹如运动之于身体。”
