Nowadays, learning and growth are the necessary deeds for modern people who live in a kind of society full of competitions. while, there is a hot topic about the method of learning and growth. Some people is for reading books, and some people think doing and experiencing are the right ways to learn. As for me, i support the former. The following points can support my view.

First of all, the knowledge from most books in publication is true and scientific, gotten from the authors’ or other predecessors’ first-hand concrete or emotional experiences, which is worthy being learned by people. Even if the knowledge is theoretical and academic, they can provide the meaningful experiences, examples for people to reflect, and useful, effective ways to solve daily problems. Secondly, reading books is the most easy, effective way for people to get knowledge in the least time. Then people can save much time to do other things. The more books we read, the more knowledge we get, the solider our theoretical basis is, which is more easily for people to innovate. Thirdly, learning by doing has its limitations. Owing to the limit of time and place, it is unrealistic for people to do or experience everything in order to get knowledge. Sometimes the action is dangerous. For example, .we can’t get the knowledge---killing people is illegal, by killing an innocent person and bearing the terrible result. It is unreasonable.

In the end, i conclude my opinion. Learning through reading is a more efficient choice for people, comparing with the way of experiencing and doing.
