Editor's note: Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping has issued a series of important speeches and important articles, with a clear style, profound thinking and profound connotation, reflecting reality with history and looking far into the future, shining with the light of Marxist truth. The charming language in these important speeches and articles is a true portrayal of General Secretary Xi Jinping's governing philosophy and a vivid embodiment of his charisma. CCTV's "Daily Learning" column launched the "Idiom Reading" series, in the form of "news comics + text reading", taking you to understand the language charm of General Secretary Xi Jinping from different dimensions.

April 4 is World Book Day. General Secretary Xi Jinping has repeatedly stressed the importance of reading, and has always set an example by treating reading as an attitude to life, a work responsibility, and a spiritual pursuit.

He has always cared about the reading and learning of the vast number of young people, shared his reading methods and reading experience, and enlightened young friends with far-reaching thoughts.

On April 2016, 4, at a symposium of intellectuals, model workers and youth representatives, the general secretary advocated that "the vast number of young people should consciously strengthen their learning and constantly enhance their skills." The golden age of life is in youth. The foundation of knowledge in youth is thick or not, which affects and even determines one's life. The vast number of young people should be hungry and tireless in their studies, read more books with words and more books without words, and pay attention to learning life experience and social knowledge."

At this symposium, the general secretary had in-depth exchanges with everyone in the form of chatting and heart-to-heart talks. He used reading "books with words" and "books without words" to vividly refer to the two learning methods of scientific and cultural knowledge and social practice knowledge. These two ways of learning are not opposed to each other, but you have me and I have you.

The growth, maturity and success of young people require a long period of training, and learning is a magic weapon that runs through and persists. On the one hand, young people's learning in school is mainly to learn scientific and cultural knowledge, build a solid knowledge foundation, and strengthen the solid foundation and cultivation, that is, read more "books with words"; On the other hand, young people should also combine their majors, go deep into the grassroots frontline, receive education in practice, gain different growth in the social classroom, and write their achievements on the motherland, that is, read more "books without words".

After graduation, young people will read more and more and more deeply when they go to school, and they must continue to establish lofty ideals in their work, closely integrate the knowledge learned from books with the needs of the country, pay attention to the times and society, absorb nutrients, apply what they have learned, and temper their youth and thrive in the places where the motherland needs it most.

The general secretary used vivid and vivid metaphors to explain the confusion and doubts of young people in simple terms, which is refreshing. He gave these "two books" to young people to guide us to sum up experience, enhance our skills, acquire true knowledge and comprehend the true meaning in practice, and encourage everyone to master true talents and practical learning, improve moral character, and realize the mutual transformation and mutual promotion of knowledge and ability.

The combination of reading and application, and the unity of knowledge and action, is not only General Secretary Xi Jinping's reading pursuit, but also his reading practice. The general secretary once recalled when participating in the theme group day activities on May Fourth Youth Day in 2013: "After I went to the countryside to cut the queue, I set myself a motto, starting with self-cultivation. If you don't know anything, you are ashamed of it, and you are thirsty for knowledge. Going up the mountain to herd the sheep, I carried the book, tied the sheep to the mountain, and began to read. When I hoeed the field and began to rest for a while, I took out the Xinhua dictionary to record the multiple meanings of a word, accumulating it bit by bit. ”

During the countryside, Xi Jinping led the masses to dig silt dams, build biogas digesters, and run iron cooperatives and agency stores. He combined what he learned with practice and with the needs of the masses, and served the people wholeheartedly. This has become a vivid example for young people to read well the "book without words" and "the book with words".

Knowledge is learned, and the road is simple.

A book is a mirror that reflects a person's business interests and spiritual realm, and also reflects his ideals, beliefs, and value pursuits. For decades, the general secretary has insisted on reading "books with words" and "books without words", thinking well, reading well, practicing dedication, and guiheng, so that every day becomes a "reading day" and drives the whole people to read a common practice.
