　　小编听说，英国人不光自己爱看书，在殖民时代，还将把爱书看书的习惯发扬光大到了殖民地。这一习惯被很好的保留在了被英国殖民过的越南。据说在政治动荡的年代，随手捧本书在读的越南人还丝毫不减。令小编没想到的是，淋漓尽致展现“古人三上之功”的竟然是英国人。在大家都青睐电子阅读器的时代，纸质阅读似乎变得“不时髦”，是什么让英国人坚持这种“不时髦”的阅读方式呢?跟上小编寻找答案。

　　重要线索：

　　昨日“2015伦敦中国图书节”在英国伦敦启幕，许多中国优秀图书作为本次展销重点：

　　《中共十八大：中国梦与世界》《中国道路与中国梦》《中国道路十讲》等一批反映当代中国政治、经济等内容的主题图书也将参加展销，同时，《红楼梦》《三国演义》《中国美术全集》《中国园林艺术》等反映中国传统和现当代文化的优秀图书也将与英国读者见面。

　　Also on display are books that provide insights into political and economic developments of contemporary China. These books include, among others, 18th National Congress of the CPC: Chinese Dream and the World, The Chinese Path and the Chinese Dream, and Ten Presentations on the Chinese Path. British people will also satisfy their appetite for China’s culture and heritage with a wide selection of excellent books on offer at the Festival. They will have the luxury of getting a glimpse of China’s cultural richness represented by The dream of the Red Chamber, The Romance of the Three Kingdoms,Complete Collection of Chinese Arts, and The Arts of Chinese Garden.

　　咱们习大大对英国进行国事访问，英国人则选这个日子宣传中国传统文化，这是不是“知己知彼”的招式?总之，先去伦敦的书店，探个究竟!

　　英国老牌书店—水石书店(Waterstones)

　　Waterstones, formerly Waterstone's, is a British book retailer that operates 275 stores and employs around 3,500 staff in the UK and Europe as of February 2014. Established in 1982 by Tim Waterstone, after whom the company was named, the bookseller expanded rapidly until being sold in 1993 to W H Smith.

　　Waterstones的店铺装修以现代的简约风格为主，让读者能够在非常放松的环境下阅读和选择书目。书店的书目分类也非常明确，明细都一目了然。2008年Waterstones成为英国第一家销售索尼电子书阅读器的书商。有评论家认为，此举是Waterstones为自己播撒灭亡的种子，并预测Waterstones在五年之后可能会不再销售图书，甚至将不再存在。(小编觉得这是不可能的。)

　　皇室御用书店—哈查兹书店(Hatchards)

　　Hatchards is the oldest bookshop in the United Kingdom. It was founded by John Hatchard in 1797 in Piccadilly in London, from where it still trades today. Mr Hatchard's portrait can be seen on the staircase of the shop today.

　　哈查兹书店不仅拥有女王、爱丁堡公爵和威廉王子三个皇室御用证书，为女皇一家子提供书籍满载荣誉，称她为英国贵族书店就顺理成章。它也有很多名人老顾客，如王尔德和拜伦。至今，哈查兹书店还传承着过去的精神，一个忠实的顾客这样描述书店的内部：“这使人想起在一个漫无边际的老房子里面，六个楼层的小房间都连在一起围着中央楼梯。”
