Compare and contrast knowledge gained from experience with knowledge gained from books. In your opinion, which source is more important?
We learn a big part of knowledge from books. In my opinion books are more important than experience for three reasons. Improve second language, learn different culture, and increase scientific knowledge.
First, we learn a lot from read books. For example I am learning an English language. When I read a book, I learn a correct grammar and get an idea for writing. I am learning new vocabulary. It means that I am improving an academic level from second language. You cannot learn it from experience.
Second, we learn about cultures and historic in the world. For example I like to know about Chinese culture. I cannot to travel there. I can read book and know about belief, customs, habits, and historic.
Last, we increase scientific knowledge. Scientists from centuries ago have studied and summarized much knowledge that we can trust the information. Books help us to specific knowledge from years we were not.
In conclusion, we improve second language, learn different culture, and increase scientific knowledge with to read book that nothing can get from experience.
