The original title of the article was "Active and Passive", but it was too un-Internet.
Today at noon after eating without coffee, indeed a little sleepy, remembering that some people talk about severe addiction, referring to the fact that once there is no coffee, there will be physiological discomfort. At this time, I originally wanted to read books, and found that reading books at this time was really difficult for myself, so I watched a documentary about money "Money Master", the first episode was about Keynes, which was very interesting.
If I were to read Keynes's book, I might not be able to read it, first, Keynes's book is more difficult to nibble on, second, I don't understand the background knowledge of economics, and third, there is no direct motivation. This video still has no English and only Chinese subtitles, but I watched it anyway.
While watching it, I suddenly realized why the video is popular because it is a passive input and the audience has the feeling of being served.
For example, this video, with translated subtitles, about World War I and World War II, as well as war shots and historical footage of Hitler. Even if the text is distracted, there are videos, and this logic is relatively simple, for example, Keynes opposed the punitive compensation of Germany after World War I, believing that it would make Germany more difficult and eventually lead to new problems. As a result, World War II was initiated by Germany. In fact, this logic Keynes must have spent a lot of effort to rigorously argue.
So that's the benefit of active input like video, the first problem I never found, is the video and audio continuity problem, it's a machine at output, whether you look at it or not, as long as you don't turn off the screen, it's always there.
The second issue is legibility.
In the end, from the content itself to the form of dissemination, the difficulty of understanding the video is easier than reading the article, which is like a person who speaks more easily than he writes a book.
The third problem is the sense of imprint.
For example, if a person finishes watching a movie and reading a book, the movie may make a more impressive impression. For example, when everyone thinks of the little dragon girl, it is Li Ruotong's appearance. When I think of Sherlock Holmes, I am like an English actor. Without these images, it would still be possible to have a thousand little dragon girls in the hearts of a thousand people.
Therefore, to say that video is passive input, in fact, its impact on the audience is much more active. From the perspective of efficiency, the communicator may feel that the density of information is not as high as the text, but the audience will feel that their sense of acquisition is stronger.
So compared with this kind of passive input, active input is much more difficult, what are the conditions for it to be true?
First, the reasons and motivations are sufficient.
Now I think that the most adequate reason is the exam, or something similar to the exam, such as writing a paper and needing to check the information, that is, to have a clear purpose. There's also a reason to be interested, to really have enough interest in something, so go read it.
In short, in today's fragmented era, opening a book requires too many reasons, and closing a book only requires one reason, sleepy.
Second, readers need to have certain reading habits and a good attitude.
The so-called reading habits, in fact, are the ability to continuously think and keep up with the expression of words, and there is no shortage of people who can write interlocking links that make people love not volumes, such as Ma Boyong. But usually reading is a chore. Whether it is a novel or a work, the author's expression is always subjective, regardless of the reader's feelings. Are those passages possible for you to read past. And in reading, we must concentrate on not being disturbed by the outside world, which is also a habit to form.
Also, the really valuable reading is often a reading with a less strong purpose, which is contrary to the first situation, and whether it can be read at this time really requires the reader to have a good literacy.
Third, the reader needs to have the ability to think interactively.
If you want to immerse yourself in the process of reading, it must not be like reading like a little monk chanting, but looking at the book with your eyes, and the brain is either recalling, confirming, or thinking in a warm activity. This kind of reading is active reading.
In thirteen invitations, Donno said that he had never accepted an invitation from a friend to become a screenwriter. Although Hou Xiaoxian was his friend.
Don Nuo said that he and his wife Zhu Tianxin never had a greater imagination for movies, and he believes that movies are a prosperous and more acceptable vehicle for the public. "For me, it can load too few things." Too limited, too costly.
Of course, this is also his family's words. After all, he and Mr. Xu Zhiyuan also finally appeared in the same shot.
In fact, from the perspective of thinking itself, it cannot be said that the text or the movie must be more profound. It's just that for a specific person, you must know the difference between active and passive, and you must know how to use reading to prevent yourself from becoming lazier when this person is getting lazier.
