Many people might have read many books during the whole life. One might read one book again and again and another book only once. In which circumstance could you remember and get the concept or interests of book? It might be possible when you read a book for many times. Therefore, I think that it`s more interesting to read a book for the second time than to read it for the first time. That`s because people could feel the book`s material diversly and by heart.
First, when you read a book in different ways. It might be possible to think about book`s material more logical and track the materials more deeper. And people could get out of the first reading`s perception and responses. For example, if you read a book which provides the latest world economic problem, such as sub prime mortgage problem. When you read that book first time, you could not fully understand the book. However, for the second time, you could read that book with various concepts such as people`s behaviorism. That will help you understand the book.
Second, when you read the book for the second time, you can get the concept by heart. So it is hard to forget the materials of the book. In contrast, it is easy to forget when you read the book once. You could get the flow of the book. But it might be difficult to remember the whole things of the book. One survey shows that when people read a book twice, the ability to remember that book increased.
To sum up, you could get some benefits from the first reading, because people`s first impression on book is very impressive. However, in most cases, by reading the book for the second time or more, people might have more advantages rather than reading it for the first time. |
