【预测】读书

好书就像是你最好的朋友。它是最有耐心，最令人愉悦的伴侣。在我们陷入困境或遭遇不幸时，它也不会抛弃我们，而是对我们一如既往地亲切。年轻时，好书能陶冶我们的性情，增长我们的知识；年老时，它又给我们以慰藉和鼓励。人们常常因为喜欢同一本书而结为知己，就像有时两个人因为敬慕同一个人而成为朋友一样。书是真诚而高尚的情谊纽带。人们可以通过共同喜爱的作家沟通思想，交流感情，彼此息息相通。

【参考译文】

A good book may be our best friends. It is the most patient and cheerful companions. It will never turn its back upon us when we are suffering from adversity or distress, but always show us the same kindness. When we are in youth, it cultivates our temper and increases our knowledge; when we are in age, it consoles us and encourages us. Men often discover their affinity to each other by the mutual love they have for a book just as two persons sometimes discover a friend by the admiration of a third. Books are sincere and lofty bonds of friendship. Men can exchange ideas, communicate feelings and sympathize with each other through their favorite author.
