我在加拿大长大的妹子改的　她水平很高的　中式英语的毛病暴露不少
Topic: what people learn from books is broader than from direct experience.
My answer:
Since I was taught the first word,I have learned a lot from books,which contain the experience and knowledge accumulated by our ancestors over the times and tell the history of development of human beings.Nevertheless,as a human living in the world, direct experience is equally,if not more,important to me.

  Books provide all kind of necessary knowledge,which people may otherwise never know as they never try in person.No one is lucky enough to get all the information he needs from his own experience.Nor anyone is energetic enough to do so.Books serve us as a good tutor in showing us the facts that we are ignorant about. Recording on rocks,shells and metals are the primitive types of books,in which humans  recorded their behaviors and thoughts,experience and knowledge. Archaeologists are informed about how our forefather lived,huntered,migrated and evolved with the help of these ancient recording. Or they would never be able to know about all these since they cannot go back to ancient times. In the age of explosion of information,we are lucky to have access to millons of books.Only a few people can afford the expenses of traveling around the world,but thanks to books about their journeys, readers can also enjoy the exotic atmosphere. I am always very interested in Diana, the late Britain princess. But it is impossible for me to get to know her by direct contact. The only way for me to be familiar with her is to read some biographies about her. Without knowledge from books, it is impossible to reach beyond the relatively narrow circle of life and equip oneself with new skills and information that emerge every minute.

  On the other hand,if one is contended with what he/she learn from the books and never try to draw knowledge from his/her direct experience,it is miserable bacause he/she give up the chance of being taught by life.First,there is something one can grasp only through personal experience. When a small child learns to talk, he does not refer to a phrase book. Rather,he imitates how his parents or people around him talk. When I learn English, I was told by my teacher that reading English texts were far from enough. I should talk to native speakers and express my opinions in English. It is not only in language learning that practice is of paramount importance.In the realm of science scholars should not be satisfied with what is printed in the classic books but to explore more and correct the existing errors in the classics.Anyway,what is published does not necessarily indicates that this is the truth.Direct expiences from experiment inspires scientists to challenge the established ideas. Second,what one learns from books may be impractical in reality.The world is changing all the time,but even the latest book tell things that happened some time ago.Therefore,learning from personal experience is necessary for us to improve our performance according to the altering situation. When I was doing a summer job in a publishing house, I found that the methods I was informed to treat interpersonal relationship from books  is not effective. Actually,what I learned from my own experience of getting along with my colleagues in the two months' work is much more practical and useful. One of my friends was confronted with the similar problem. When she was working in a bank as a green hand, she found the ways other experienced employees do business are not like what she has learned at university. It took her a long time to adjust herself into the more realistic and efficient way of working in a bank.As a matter of fact,books may contain many useful knowledge,but when employing them into practice,we need to depend on personal experience.
  Since books were invented and humans began to record their behaviors and experiece,books have helped us to know more about the exciting planet and prod into many new fields. Without knowledge from books,mankind couldn't have accomplished so much. However,it is also thanks to the notion that lessons drawn from direct expirience are equally important as the world is developing all the time and what is true in the past may be outmoded instantly that human is striding forward while adjusting himself to the realities.

Since I was taught with a variety of literature, I have learned a lot
from reading on my own. Books contain experiences and knowledge
accumulated by our ancestors throughout history and are an invaluable
record of human development. However, as a person living in an
interactive world, direct experience is an equally important method of
learning.

Books provide all kinds of necessary knowledge that people may
otherwise never know or personally experience. No one is fortunate or
energetic enough to obtain all the information one needs from one? own
experience. Books serve us as a tutor and a guide, pointing out the
facts that we easily miss.

Recordings on rocks, shells and metals are the primitive types of books
in which humans recorded their thoughts, experience and knowledge.
Archaeologists are informed about how our forefathers lived, hunted,
migrated and evolved with the help of these ancient treasures. Without
them, we would never know about the past.

In this growing information era, we are lucky to have access to
millions of books. Although only a few people can afford to travel
around the world, any reader can experience an exotic country? lush
atmosphere through books. I am personally very interested in Diana, the
late Britain princess. Because it is impossible for me to meet her,
biographies are my only source of contact. Without knowledge from
books, it is impossible to reach beyond the relatively narrow circle of
life and equip oneself with new skills and information that are
constantly emerging.

On the other hand, if one learns only from books and never tries to
draw knowledge from direct experience, one has give up the chance of
being taught by life. Firstly, there are some things one can grasp only
through personal experience. For example, when a small child learns to
talk, he does not refer to a phrase book, but imitates how his parents
or people around him talk. When I learned English, I was told by my
teacher that reading English texts were far from enough. I should talk
to native speakers and express my opinions in English. It is not only
in the learning of a language that practice is of paramount importance,
but also in the realm of science. Scholars should not be satisfied with
what is printed in the classic books but should strive to explore
further and correct any existing errors. Published scientific findings
are not always accurate or true. Direct experiences from experiments
are needed to challenge the established ideas.

Secondly, what one learns from books may be impractical in reality, as
the world is constantly changing, while books are static entities.
Therefore, learning from personal experience is necessary for us to
improve our performance and adjust according to the altering situation.
When I worked in a publishing house, I found that the interpersonal
skills I learned from books were not very effective. What I learned
from my own experience with my colleagues through the two month period
was much more practical and useful. One of my friends was confronted
with a similar problem. When she worked in a bank as a green hand, she
found that the business tactics used by other experienced employees
differed from what she had learned from her university textbooks. It
took her a long time to adjust herself into the more realistic and
efficient way of working in a bank. Books may contain useful knowledge,
but we need to reply on our own personal experiences when putting that
knowledge into practice.

Since books were invented and humans began to record their behaviors
and experiences, they have taught us about exciting things and explored
into many new fields. Without knowledge from books, mankind could not
have accomplished so much. However, the world is developing at an
exponential rate and only lessons drawn from direct experience can keep
up with the changing reality. In conclusion, books and direct
experiences complement each other and are equally important sources of
knowledge.
