在此我對每天的topic進行解析和范文精講，請大家寫完作文之后不忘進行比較，找出自己的不足之處。開始吧！

4. It has been said, "Not everything that islearned is contained in books." Compare and contrast knowledge gained fromexperience with knowledge gained from books. In your opinion, which source ismore important? Why?

.

Topic 4Books and experience

Books are considered to be the source ofall knowledge, but all that one learns through a book is only of

theoreticalnature in the form of ideas and concepts. It is essential to utilize（利用，別再說use啦）them

in a real environment andexperience the knowledge that is learned from books.（作者給的觀點非常巧妙的結合了ETS提出的問題，他說理論和實踐相結合才是非常重要的，但是他顯然從第一句上已經有了觀點偏向，他是更傾向于experience的。）

Learning is nothing but understanding theworld around us. Books,no doubt are a great source of knowledge as it gives us an idea about a particular subject in detail. Butall that one could learn from it is limited to the level of knowing how acertain phenomenon occurs, or how a certain concept works. The knowledge gained through books alone cannot help anyone, because what one learns through thebooks should be put in to use（也可以說put into practice）to harvest the benefits（請回想一下benefit的用法）. For instance, a person who wants to learn driving can go through various manuals（手冊，小冊子）andguides that teach people how to drive, but all this knowledge is useful onlywhen you are actually driving the car on the roads.It would be an utter waste of time if one just reads the books and does not usethem for practical purpose.（請注意，作者no doubt這句話用的很好，有心的朋友可以將它抄寫下來背誦，句式非常靈活；本段最后一句話中be an utter waste of time譯為完全是在浪費時間，這句if從句也值得學習；該段在講述光有理論就是浪費時間，結合實踐的時候它才能最好地發揮它的作用。）

Learning through experience is always a lot different from learning through books.Let us consider thesame example ofa person wanting to learn to drive: even if he goes through every book that is available on driving, still it cannot qualify（作動詞譯為取得資格）him as an expert driver.This is because of the fact that books about driving can only teach people traffic rules and provide solutions on how to handle（從事，處理）certain situations. The situations faced by a driver could be totally different from what he had learntfrom a book. Sometimes we find that the real environment is quite different from the one perceived（感知，認為）by us through reading books. This is the very reason（這正是……的原因）why, even in educationalinstitutions, all theoretical classes are followed by practical sessions.（別再總是說for example了，學學本段引例子的這句話Let us consider theexample of…換換樣子給考官提提神；本段在通過例子解釋實踐跟理論是完全不一樣的，理論需要建立在實踐基礎上）

Learning through experience can also bemore effective than learning through books because one does not envision（vt.想象，預想）everything on his own, but is given a chance to experience the reality. The art of driving can be enjoyed only when we are behind the wheelsand not when reading it in books. Moreover, any book is actually an account of（譯為是一個過去經驗的記錄）past experiences, i.e.it is based on the experiences of people who tried to develop a new idea. The books are their experiences, telling us what they already have tried. Thus from their experiences we can correct our selves and thus save valuable time and resources. It helps us to concentrate on their failures and to correct them,but they alone cannot teach us everything we need to know. The knowledge learned through books alone cannot help us to face all the exigencies（緊急狀況）that we would face in reallife situations; we have to practice on our own.（本段觀點所略為一句話：實踐出真知，是最行之有效的學習辦法。我認為本作文有些死板的地方在于，他三個段落都在說driving的事情，也許是他考試時太緊張想不出更多例子了，有點車轱轆話來回說的嫌疑，老美都喜歡你用鮮活的例子而不是長篇大論的虛話，建議有想法的同學活用例子來豐富你的文章。）

Books are like a guiding light（指路明燈）in one's pursuit forknowledge.（在孜孜不倦追求知識的道路上）But it is left to everyone of us to experience it first hand and learn new things for the betterment of their lives. So the notion"experience is the best teacher" is perfectly true.（結尾點題了，寫清自己的觀點，到底傾向A還是傾向B，記住一定不能模棱兩可。）

好了，今天就說這么多，大家一定要堅持練習作文，每天進步一小點，一個月下來托福寫作絕對是質的提升！希望大家跟著我每天一篇練下去，寫作都是硬功夫，跟小時候每周都要寫語文作文是一樣的，功夫到家自然成，加油！

最后再mention一下互評作文的事情，這個作文互評目前只有我在做，我希望盡可能給有需要的可可粉們提供幫助，如果你們中有愿意跟我一起批改大家作文的，一定要mail我加入哦！（互批可以進步非常快，做過才知道！）
