 test every theory in one`s own experience; and it is not necessary to get 
involved in explaining every phenomenon you meet by your own experience. Just look 
into your books! The knowledge from books can help you understand them more quickly 
and even better! 
The last but not the least reason, knowledge gained from experience is relatively limited 
when compared with knowledge gained from books. Our life is limited. Time waits for 
no man. So, if we want to learn more, reading books is a better way! Through reading 
books, we will better develop our personality and our moral integrity, above all, enrich 
our own knowledge! 
As I stated above, if you want to explore the mysteries in the treasure house of 
knowledge, pick up your books, and you will find the way!

When we are on the way to learn something, both books and experience are very essential 
resources. Experience is the most direct and efficient way to gain knowledge. Since the 
world is so mysterious that a lot of phenomenon seemed natural cannot be explained, and 
society is so complex that we may easily judge things merely according to our 
imagination, experience engaged in some certain activity, doing research on physics and 
running companies in markets, for example, are really necessary. In such cases, 
experience does give us a hand to gain much more knowledge beyond our scope. 
However, books are sometimes indispensable. Books can be divided into two kinds. One 
is basic knowledge, which is the fundament for further study, especially when we are 
young, not capable enough to do things demanding practice and mature enough to decide 
or judge things in the right way. The other is special knowledge and theoretical 
explanation in certain fields, such as pharmacy, embryology; when we need it sometimes, 
we have to learn from books, for our common sense not come in handy. 
Although both experience and books can help us, as always, be on the right track, they 
may sometimes lead us to receive wrong information. Because our experiences are 
gained from our direct observation, it is inevitable mixed with some our subjectivity, 
which, not surprisingly lead to wrong understanding of something. And books, such as 
stocking guided books, may do little to reduce investment risk, or even mislead people, 
considering what the financial future holds can no be predicted with certainty. 
No person can claim that he is able to learn everything only through experience or only 
from books. The way to learn is relatively different varying from periods to periods, 
occupation to occupation, individual to individual. we can choose the most appropriate 
way in accordance with our own situation 
Essay 57 Topic 4 Are books more important than experience? 
The brain is a large center for the storage of knowledge. Our brain`s capability of 
responding to the external world is based on our knowledge. We acquire this knowledge 
from books or through experience. Although these are not the only ones, they are the 
fundamental sources of knowledge. To gain knowledge from a book, one has to read the 
book, comprehend it, and memorize it, while in experience; everything is connected to 
practice and memory. But generally they both are ways of acquiring knowledge and also, 
they both can be used effectively depending on the user`s capability of understanding. 
Based on this I support that gaining knowledge from books is better. 
Books are the works of writers. They are written with full compliance with established 
laws. When writers write, they would not include matters that are irregular and which 
sometimes deviate from the laws until an explanation with detailed proof is given. But in 
experience, one can get quite acquainted with abnormal matters with abnormal matters, 
which would likely be excluded from books. In experience proof is almost irrelevant. A 
person who observes something to be true many times, he would conclude that it is true

without proof. 
The difference between knowledge gained from experience and knowledge gained from 
books can be clearly shown by looking at their time consumption. Authors have specific 
knowledge of the subject matter. Therefore the content of these books has been refined 
and is highly accurate. As a result, acquiring knowledge from books requires relatively 
small time. But in experience, knowledge is gained through trial and error. This is highly 
time consuming since a person has to start all over again when he/she finds his/her 
knowledge to be inaccurate. 
In my opinion books are more important sources of knowledge than experience because 
they are less likely to be inaccurate (because they are proven) and require less time. 
Books avoid that risk that would be taken to gain knowledge from trial and error 
(experience). Although confined to basic laws, for those who comprehend well, books 
could give clues to those matters that are undefined. 
Essay 58 Topic 4 Are books more important than experience? 
There is a saying that ot everything that is learned is contained in books. ?I cannot 
agree with it more. We should not ignore resources of knowledge other than books, such 
as experience. 
First of all, experience teaches us much knowledge which rarely appears in books. For 
example, no books teach us how to drive cars. Most people learn driving by practice 
under the guidance of experienced drivers, and only by practicing himself, can one really 
learn how to drive. Perhaps there are some books teaching driving, but people can hardly 
learn driving by merely reading manuals, as people can hardly learn swimming without 
jumping into the water. 
Secondly, only from experience can people explore throughout the unknowns and gain 
new knowledge. Knowledge on the first book comes from nowhere but experience. 
Franklin discovered the electricity by his kit, Magellan found that the earth is spherical 
by sailing. People find new knowledge from experience and write them into books. It is 
in this way that human-being explore the world generation by generation. 
However, I am not saying that knowledge from book is non-sense. Books are the most 
available and most effective methods to gain knowledge. People learn knowledge from 
books without painfully exploring the world himself, this is the value of books. But 
nowadays there is a harmful thought that all knowledge can be found on books, and 
people need not experience by himself. So it is worthy pointing out that, knowledge from 
experience is as important as, if not more important than those from books.

ot everything is contained in books. ?Books can provide a lot of information but they 
cannot teach people what real life experiences can teach. On the other hand life 
experiences cannot teach us what books can. Real life experiences have advantages and 
disadvantages as well as books do. 
Books have existed even before our existence in this world. They are the best source of 
knowledge. They help us learn about the past and present. Books aid us in learning about 
latest discoveries and inventions. I had a history project and I did not know where to get 
information because I did not exist in those times. I went to the library and found so 
much information in books, which I had never known. I learned so much and increased 
my knowledge. Although books have loads of advantages, they also have disadvantages. 
Books can give us information but they can never give us real life feelings. My friend 
read in a book about a man who died in mountain climbing. She did not feel any 
emotions and learned nothing because it had never happened with her. Books can give us 
all we need but they cannot teach us how to live in this world. 
In contrast, real life experiences teach us how to live and how to deal with situations. I 
had a very close friend who I had known for more than 3 years. We shared everything 
and never told anyone anything. But when she made new friends, she went and told all 
my secrets to them. That is when I learned that no one in this world can be a true friend 
expect our parents and our brothers and sisters. Real life experiences instruct people and 
help us decide what is wrong and right. Although real life experiences can aid us, they 
can also discourage us. When my cousin`s 5 year old sister died, she totally broke apart. 
She totally went mad and now is in the hospital for treatment. Experiencing events can be 
dangerous but also beneficial because they can be guidance. 
I am in favor of real life experiences because they can help build up a person`s character. 
When my friend betrayed me, I learned not to share my deep feelings with anyone. 
Although I was hurt, but I also learned a lesson that I could never have learned in books 
since it was just a piece of writing. Real life experiences have always taught me how live 
in this life while books have not. 
No matter how informative a source is, it cannot be as useful as real life experiences. 
Books can be good teachers but they are not as good as real life experiences because 
books cannot help us see the reality while real life experiences can. 
Essay 60 Topic 4 Are books more important than experience? 
Though certainly the books provide one a wide range of information even from the area 
the experience of his life would never reach, once he tries to manage something in 
practice depending on the information gained only from books, he will note that they are 
not a source of the perfect information.
