Formostofus，Ibelievethatwearequitefamiliarwiththequote"Knowledgeispower"。TrulythatthisfamoussayingisputforwardbyFrancisBacon，whohaswrittenalargeamountofgreatworks。Then，"OfStudy"isoneofhismasterpieces。

I'vespentseveraldaystoreadthiswonderfulpieceofarticle。Eachtimeafterthereading，IwouldcertainlyshowmoreadmirationtoBacon。

Tobehonest，I'dliketosayIamreallyratherconfusedwithinfinishingthefirstreading。Yetafterreadingitfortwice，thirdtimes。。。overandoveragain，I'mmuchsurprisedtodiscoverit'sbeautifulwords，specialstructuresandspecificcontents。Iwonderthateachwordhemayhaveweighedforthousandoftimesandtheyaredeepsinkingintomyheart。

Generallyspeaking，havingaroughlookatthewholetext，Baconmainlytalksabouttwothings：thebeneficialofstudyaswellasthetechniqueofstudy。

Attheeverybeginning，Baconsaid"Studiesservefordelight，forornamentandforability。"Thisshortsentenceclearlygivesouttheideasthatstudyissignificantandmeaningful。Asfordelight，wealwayssaytheredohaveit'sownjoyinthebooks。Ienjoyreading，especiallyreadingataquietcorner。Ireadallsortsofbooks，whenIdevotemyselfintothevastseaofwords，Iamlostmyselfintoit。Itotallyforgetallthetroublesintherealworld。Thosesolookedplainwordsarousemyfeelingsandimagination。Thestrikeillustrationmayfindinreadingthepoetry，whileIappreciateapoem，itwouldbringmetothecountryyard，towestern，toancientages，tothefutureandtoalltheplacesmymindcanreach。Thatfeelingisreallycool。Forornamentandability，wecanjudgeweatheramanhasawidereadingornotbytheirspeechandbehavior。Areallyboard-readingmanalwaysappearstobegentleandknowledgeable。Theyaregreatlyrespectful。
