But your own books belong to you;you treat them with that affectionate intimacy that annihilates(歼灭;消灭)formality. Books are for use,not for show;you should own no book that you are afraid to mark up,or afraid to place on the table,wide open and face down. A good reason for marking favorite passages in books is that this practice enables you to remember more easily the significant sayings,to refer to them quickly,and then in later years,it is like visiting a forest where you once blazed(在树上做标记)a trail. You have the pleasure of going over the old ground,and recalling both the intellectual scenery and your own earlier self.
正确答案:
但是你自己的书是属于你的你可以无拘无束地与它们亲密相处书是让人读的不是用来做摆设的你所拥有的书不应使你害怕在上边做记号或是害怕把它摊开来面朝下地放在桌子上在书中你喜欢的段落做上标记的一个主要原因就是这样你可以更容易地记住那些重要的话语可以毫不费力地找到它们在以后的岁月里如果你再读这本书时就会像是再次拜访一片你在树干上做过记号的树林你会有故土重游的快乐可以回忆你当年的思想和当年的自我
