阅读犹如在知识的海洋里游泳，要想顺利地到达理想的彼岸，必须掌握正确的方法。一个积极的读者要与书进行互动，把读到的知识变成自己的，大胆地给书做标记吧！
Have you ever heard of active listening?
In short, it means that rather than passively sitting back and simply letting someone else talk while waiting for your chance to speak, you engage in the conversation without words.
It requires full concentration, understanding, and recollection of the conversation.
It helps to minimize confusion and forgetfulness.
I employ these same practices when I read.
I am an active reader.
I interact with the book.
I underline and highlight.
I fold page corners or have tabs sticking out of the side.
I argue with the text, challenging the author, editorializing or asking questions in the margins, sometimes writing so much it encircles the page.
