My soul my book

One year, an American boy was admitted to Harvard University - studying engineering. Harvard University has a core course in its first year. The so-called core curriculum means that new students are not in the professional class, but in the public class that all students must attend. The content of these classes is ridiculous and everything is there, but in any case, the school believes that these are the areas of knowledge that any Harvard student should be involved in. So the student chose a class, but he regretted it after the election. What course was chosen is Middle English Literature. Think about it, a student who wants to study engineering, ran to read "Middle English Literature", it must be very painful. Even worse, the professor of the class is old, slow to talk, old-fashioned style, and very boring, so he often skips classes. It’s hard to finish a semester class and go on a summer vacation. He is very happy. He had to work to earn money and found a part-time job in an old bookstore near the school. What are you doing? Such bookstores often receive calls, are called to go to other people's homes to collect some old books, and then sell them - he will do this.

One day, the boss sent him to a home next to Harvard University to collect books. He went, an old lady opened the door. The old lady was very sad. After the introduction, he discovered that the old lady was the wife of the professor who taught him the Middle English Literature. It turned out that the professor died shortly after the semester of the semester. After the death, he left a book of the house. The old lady thought that the books made her think of things, so she decided to sell them, so she contacted this. The old bookstore, it happened that this young man was sent to collect books. At this time, the young man realized that the class he had just finished was the last class of the professor's life. He was one of the last students in the professor's life. Although he does not like this professor, his mood is also very heavy. When he went to see how these books were moved, he found that the bookcases on the entire wall of the professor's study were all cheap detective novels. The student laughed. This old guy is very serious in class. The original favorite is the detective novel. Is there such an interest? He feels very funny.

Behind the study is a large glass door. After going out, it is a small garden, very beautiful. When he was watching the garden, he heard the old lady say, "My husband's biggest hobby before his death was to plant flowers and cut grass." There are two bookcases next to the glass door, all of which are gardening books. After watching it for a long time, the student made a decision: I am not moving these books! So he went back to the boss and said, "Boss, I want to buy the professor's book." The boss asked in surprise: "Do you want it all? Can you afford it?" The student said, "I don't want the salary." "The boss said: "That is not enough." The student said: "That's it, I will come to work here for you in the next few summers, the salary is all for you, OK?" The boss asked: "Why are you buying these books?" "This student said that when he was in class, he only thought that the professor was very dull and academic. It turned out to reflect only the professor. When he went to the professor's home and saw his study and collection, he discovered the complete personality of the professor. The professor likes the cheap version of detective novels, and the detective novels also draw lines to take notes - the notes also write swear words; the professor also likes to plant flowers and plants, sprinklers on the lawn just sprinkled, and there are drops of water on the leaves. These are the things that professors love most during their lifetime.

Hobbies, interests, and even hobbies are all in the professor's study. At the time, the student had a strong feeling: if the books were moved back to the old bookstore, they would have to be scattered, placed in the bookshelf of the old bookstore, and then sold. In this way, the professor's collection collapses and disintegrates. And now when these books are in their master's study, they are complete. What does the complete meaning mean? These books fully express the personality and soul of their masters. Therefore, this student feels that as long as the professor's collection is still there, as long as the books are still completely together, the professor is still not dead, and his soul is still in these books. He felt that he should keep the professor's soul intact - buy them, don't break them! After listening to his words, the boss said: "Forget it, I will sell you 40% off these books. It will be enough for you to play for 3 years." So he played here for 3 years.

This story is true. This story shows that a person's study, a book for a person, and a book for a person, is actually the whole person, that person.
