5 golden rules that helped me / Sudo Null IT News
It's summer in the city, early morning. I am sitting on the balcony and in front of me are a pile of books, a tablet and the latest issue of Science and Life. I have almost two hours before the start of a noisy and stressful work day, which I can devote to one of my favorite activities - reading.
The Petersburg sun is already warming up the streets, but our balcony faces the west, so I enjoy pleasant shade and morning coolness. In the afternoon, the sun will go around our house and then the real hell will begin, but for now, the balcony has ideal conditions for reading.
Putting on glasses, I slowly open the first book and plunge into the flow of events, facts, theories and interesting thoughts that its author has carefully collected for me. From time to time I look up from the page to rest my eyes and let my brain process what I've read. It's nice to change the focus of your vision when thinking about a book: from people walking in the yard with dogs to a distant skyscraper on the horizon. At the same time, thoughts in my head move from details and particulars to the big picture. As if the data from the cache is parsed, processed and connected by links with an already stored array of information.
Reading habits and preferences change with age. At school, we read in a completely different way than now, although we are not always aware of this. Reading methods are developing among all mankind. In ancient times, our ancestors did not know how to perceive texts "to themselves": for them there was only one way to read - aloud.
Over the years, my reading habits have also changed. At the institute, I started working from the first year (and we also had a scholarship then), and I spent most of my money on all sorts of computer things and paper books. I bought fashionable then Pelevin, Murakami, Pavich, Perez-Reverte on stalls at the House of Culture of the Lensoviet opposite the Petrogradskaya metro station (I then considered myself a terribly progressive intellectual).
Then high-quality readers and tablets appeared, and for a long time I preferred e-books. In them, you could adjust the background color, choose a typeface and font size - preferably more, so as not to strain your eyesight. At the same time, audiobooks were gaining popularity, but, as they say, they “didn’t work” for me. I like to read the text in a non-linear way, to return to what I have read, to interrupt from time to time in order to think over interesting ideas and fragments, to look through the table of contents. With audiobooks, such "tricks" do not work.
The recent purchase of reading glasses has contributed to the renaissance of paper publishing in my personal book world. For memory, I write down all the books I read in a special notebook - a reader's diary. Now in this diary of electronic and paper books about equally.
The book is a subject so universal and all-encompassing that everyone will find their own unique and original way to interact with it. I have such personal ways, rules and methods. Over the years, they accumulated and changed - now I already read in a completely different way than before. As a result, they all formed into a kind of system that helps me dive even deeper into the world of the book, make the reading process even brighter and more interesting, understand the thoughts and ideas of the author even better, and even more skillfully read between the lines.
I want to share with you some rules from my system. Of course, they are not suitable for everyone. Giving advice on how to read books is a thankless task. It's like teaching others how to properly listen to music. In addition, recommendations for the younger generation on how to start reading at least something are now more relevant - where can we share methods to improve the reading process. But perhaps you will find something useful and interesting in these tips. At one time they were very useful to me and I included them in my system.
1. Read every interesting book twice
In the 21st century, this advice sounds a little strange. In our crazy schedule, some find it difficult to even just set aside time to read, and even spending it on each book twice is some kind of unaffordable luxury. But rereading a book can be enjoyable and rewarding. First, we often feel sorry that a good book ends so quickly. What's the matter: open the first page and start reading from the beginning. No matter how carefully we read the book the first time, there are always many nuances that we missed on the second reading. Secondly, you often want to remember a good book properly, to put in your head those thoughts that the author wants to convey. In this case, rereading is a wonderful way to help the brain in this difficult task.
I came across this advice in minor variations in various sources. More recently, I read it in Rolf Dobelli's wonderful book Without News: "It is already known: books must be read twice, re-reading at once, so as not to forget the most important thing." And further: “The effectiveness of a double reading exceeds the effect of a single reading not twice, but ten times that way. I have seen this from my own experience. The recommendation to read the text twice applies, of course, to long articles. To make this task easier for the reader, the author gives a brief synopsis after each chapter.
I re-read the books I liked many times. Sometimes a few years after I closed the last page, and sometimes almost immediately. And each time I was convinced from my own experience that for the first time only the uppermost semantic layer of the text is available to us. All subsequent layers can be opened only if the book is reread a few more times. Good books are three-dimensional.
2. Do not read forewords written by non-authors
I heard this useful advice at the very beginning of my studies at the institute. Since then, I have tried to follow this rule when reading any literature - both technical and popular science, as well as fiction.
A preface to a book can appear for various purposes. There are prefaces laudatory and advertising. Like, admire what a wonderful book you are holding in your hands. But I do not need to advertise the book additionally - I have already picked it up and am going to read it.
There are indulgent prefaces. A great way to make a fool out of a person is to write “Original spelling retained” before their words, regardless of the presence of errors in the text. After such a preface, any reader will have a preconceived notion about the author and the book. I have always been uncomfortable reading prefaces in which someone puts himself above the author of the book and treats him condescendingly. Sometimes this approach can be found in the notes.
There are explanatory-informative prefaces. They usually appear before books that were written a very long time ago. In them, the specialist explains to modern readers the features of life and the surrounding reality in which the work was created. Such information can be useful and interesting, but it seems to me that it is better to place it at the end of the book, and not at the beginning.
In any case, a preface written by a non-author of a book is essentially a review of that book. There is nothing wrong with reviews, but it seems to me that it is better to read them not before, but after the main author's text. You always want to form your own opinion about a book first. And then it will be possible to compare it with the thoughts of others about "what the author wanted to say in his work."
3. Read several books at the same time
I like to switch between books: read one chapter from a fantasy novel, then switch to a non-fiction book, then learn something new and useful from a technical guide. At first glance, it may seem that such an approach would interfere with perception. But my brain loves this variety.
This useful advice was given to me by my grandmother many years ago. More precisely, she never formulated it, but from childhood I saw on her bedside table a stack of books, newspapers and magazines "New World" and "Foreign Literature". Usually in the evenings, after finishing all her business, Grandma put on her glasses, lit a cozy table lamp, and sat down to read. It was only her time. After reading one book for a while, she picked up the next one. Looking at it as a child, I did not understand how you can read several books at the same time, but now I read it myself. My grandmother had a very good memory, a clear, precise and inquisitive mind. Now I understand that I took over my all-consuming love of reading from her.
Switching between books adds another dimension to the linear flow of a single text. I have not one, but several lines at once. At first, they run strictly parallel, but after a while they begin to intertwine intricately. Books begin to "talk" to each other. There are intersections at different levels - in one book I suddenly meet what I (perhaps indirectly) read about in another.
The brain loves such intersections. For him, these are additional knots that help memorize and better understand information. When he meets them, he happily begins to build connections for a complex picture that would never have appeared had I read these books individually. Everything unusual and most interesting is always located on the borders of sciences and knowledge, on their invisible connections.
4. Always know where you are
For many years, I saw each book as a single stream of text that flowed through me as I read. But any good book has a clear, thoughtful structure. It has chapters, sections and subsections. The author took care to structure the information properly. It would be wrong to neglect this useful resource.
Now I have a rule: before starting to read the next chapter or section, I open the table of contents and refresh the structure of the book in my memory. Sometimes I flip through pages I've already read to remember the most important thoughts from previous chapters. I look through the unread sections as well, in order to have a general idea of what lies ahead for me. In this way, I kind of sweep away the dust from previous constructions in my head, so that it would be more convenient for the brain to continue building the building of ideas and knowledge.
This simple and obvious advice applies to more than just books. It is always useful to clearly understand where you are - in space, time and life.
5. Formulate your thoughts before reading the book
This advice seems obvious, but I have neglected it before. Although I skipped other people's forewords, did not read reviews and reviews (they would prevent me from forming an unbiased opinion about the book myself), but in doing so I missed another powerful level of influence on my mind - the flow of thoughts, ideas and arguments of the author.
Let's say I have a new book about the Universe in front of me. It doesn’t even matter what genre it is written in: popular science or science fiction. Even if it's a Stephen Hawking book. In any case, it will be useful to spend a few minutes before starting reading and fish out your thoughts and knowledge from the depths of the brain: what do I know on this topic, what is new and interesting that I recently read or watched somewhere else.
If this is not done, then all my thoughts and memories will quickly recede into the shadows before the powerful monologue of the author. Of course, this knowledge will not go anywhere, but without additional reflection, it will remain somewhere in the depths of memory. If they are removed from there in advance and blow off a layer of dust and lime, then I will get the opportunity to conduct a dialogue with the author. To agree with him in some ways, to object to something. Perhaps the author will make me change my mind on some issues. But this change will not be passive, but conscious, reasoned and thoughtful. A conversation with a smart, knowledgeable person is always more interesting and useful than listening to lectures and lectures.
For a long time I have been interested in reading articles about how someone set up their computer environment: what programs they use, what their desktop looks like in the operating system, how it interacts with the computer. Of course, I do not immediately rush to adopt the habits and methods of other users, but such stories often contain many new useful ideas.
The same with reading - it is a special world in which we are left alone with a book. Everyone has his own - unique, inimitable and beautiful. But readers tell little about how they travel around this world: what they prefer to take with them on the road, how they navigate in space, and what method they use to systematize and store the treasures found. But atlases, guidebooks and travel notes are popular and useful at all times.

Arabic translation page!
August 17, 2020, Monday
The Russian Cultural Center in Beirut offered, and we gladly agreed! Today, the first experimental match "Pages" in Arabic took place online. Four girls from Beirut read excerpts from Arabic classics, poetry and popular science literature without preparation. And everything is in Arabic.
In the first match, we decided to do without a jury and just listen to the girls read their passages. Translator Balkis Mrue acted as an expert, Vadim Zaichikov, head of the Rossotrudnichestvo office in Beirut, shared his advice.
Now, together with the Russian Cultural Center in Beirut, we are starting to prepare a full-fledged championship in reading aloud in Arabic. Like this!

Participants from Rostov, Rybinsk and Yaroslavl regions, as well as Uglich and Yaroslavl met at the final. Valeria Plokhushko read them all. Congratulations, and see you at the finals of the regional conference "North"!

Unprecedented case: two champions at once in the Krasnoyarsk Territory
November 2, 2019, Saturday
The Krasnoyarsk Territory has always been different from all regions. It was there that the idea was born to hold a reading championship for high school students. Traditionally, our season starts from this region. Hundreds of venues take part in the qualifying rounds. The winners send their videos for the People's vote (the absolute record of the season is 1050 videos), the semi-final marathon takes place in the Kamenka cultural space, and the final is traditionally held as part of the Krasnoyarsk book culture fair.
And everything went according to the familiar pattern exactly until the final, in which three participants came out. The jury members (in the amount of 5 people, contrary to all the rules) gave points in such a way that two girls shared the title of Champion - Alina Batukhtina from the Novoselovsky district and Anna Kurts from Krasnoyarsk.
