　46. How To Mark[vt.标记] a Book. 怎样在书上做标记 　　1. You know you have to read between the lines to get the most out of anything. I want to persuade[vt.劝告] you to do something equally important in the course of your reading. I want to persuade you to write between the lines. Unless you do, you are not likely to do the most efficient[有效率的] kind of reading. 1、你知道读书必须要阅读，“字里行间的言外之意”，以求最充分的理解。我劝你在读书过程中做一件同等重要的事情；我劝你“在字里行间里写字”。不这样做，就达不到最有效的阅读效果。 分析：between the lines＝言外之意be likely to＝可能；persuade＝说服； efficient有效率的2. I contend[v.主张], quite bluntly[坦率的], that marking up a book is not an act of mutilation[n.毁损] but love. 2、坦率地说，我认为，在书上涂抹标记不是一种损毁行为，而是爱。 单词：contend＝主张；bluntly坦率地；mutilation＝毁损； 3. You shouldnt mark up a book which isnt yours. Librarians[n.图书馆管理员] (or your friends) who lend you books expect you to keep them clean, and you should.

Most of the worlds great books are available[adj.可获得的] today, in reprint[n.再版] editions[版本], for a modest[adj.适中的] sum[n.金额]. 3、当然，你不应该在不属于你的书上做标记。借给你书的图书管理员(或者你的朋友)希望你保持书的整洁，你应该这样做。如果你认为我说的在书上做标记颇有益处这番话是对的，你就得自己买书。现在，绝大部分世界上的好书都有再版，我们很容易买到，并且价格合理。 单词：librarian=图书馆管理员； usefulness＝有益处； available＝可获得的；reprint＝再版；edition＝版本； modest＝适度的； sum＝金额； 4. There are two ways in which you can own a book. The first is the property[n.财产] right you establish by paying for it, just as you pay for clothes, and furniture. But this act of purchase is only the prelude[n.前提] to possession[n.拥有]. Full ownership[n.所有权] comes only when you have made it a part of yourself, and the best way to make yourself a part of it is by writing in it. An illustration[n.例证] may make the point clear. You buy a beefsteak and transfer[v.转移] it from the butchers icebox[n.冰柜] to your own. But you do not own the beefsteak in the most important sense[n.意义] until you consume[v.消费] it and get it into your bloodstream[血液]. I am arguing that books, too, must be absorbed[(absorb):v.吸收] in your blo
