Knowledge or Experience
Which is more important in life， knowledge from the books you read， or personal experience you gain in reality? The answer may vary from person to person. The young， educated may emphasize the former， and the old may stress the later. But in my opinion， they are of the same importance.
Experience is priceless. How to become an efficient secretary? How to prepare for your first child to come into the world? There is so much experience we need in careers， in life and even in academic studies. It helps one deal with the problems with ease and confidence. Especially activities and to accumulate experience of different kinds is more crucial.
Experience， however， is limited in terms of time and space. For one thing， it is impossible for anyone to experience all the important events and meet all the famous people. For another， as the speed with which skills are obsolete and new problems crop up is unprecedented because of the fast development of society， experience is far less adequate. Depending too much on it only leads to narrow-mindedness and prejudice.

知識或經驗
哪一個更重要的生活，知識從你讀的書，或個人經驗，你在現實中獲得?答案可能因人而異。年輕的受教育者可能強調前者，而老年人則強調後者。但在我看來，他們是同樣重要的。
經驗無價。如何成為一名高效的.祕書?如何準備你的第一個孩子來到這個世界?我們在職業、生活、甚至學術研究中都有很多經歷。它幫助人們輕鬆和自信地處理問題。特別是活動和積累不同種類的經驗更為關鍵。
然而，經驗是有限的時間和空間。一方面，任何人都不可能經歷所有重要的事件，遇到所有的名人。另一方面，由於技能的過時和新的問題的出現是前所未有的，因為社會的快速發展，經驗遠遠不夠充分。過分依賴只會導致狹隘和偏見。
