　　Describe a book that you enjoyed reading because you had to think a lot.You should say:

　　- what this book was

　　- why you decided to read it

　　- what reading this book made you think about- and explain why you enjoyed reading this book.

　　I’m going to talk about a book that really made me think, and that has had a positive effect on my life. The name of the book is ‘Atomic Habits’, and it’s about the compounding effect that small decisions and minuscule changes can have on people’s lives.

　　我要说一本启发我思考而且对我生活有积极影响的书。它的名字是“Atomic Habits”，内容是关于小决定和微小变化对人们生活的复合作用。

　　I decided to read Atomic Habits after seeing an interview with the book’s author, James Clear, who is a world-renowned expert in the field of habit formation. In the interview, he told inspiring stories and revealed some simple life hacks that can make people more productive, motivated and happy. I found the whole idea of the ‘science of tiny habits’ fascinating, and so I bought the book straight away.

　　我是在看了一次作者采访之后决定看这本书的。作者James Clear是习惯养成领域的世界知名专家。在访谈中，他讲了很有启发性的故事，透露了一些可以帮助人们更有效率、有动力且快乐的简单生活窍门。我觉得“小习惯的科学”的整个理念都很吸引人，所以立即就买了这本书。

　　While reading the book, I was forced to confront my own habits and behaviours. I realised that I’m nowhere near as productive as I could be, but that some small tweaks to my routine could make a significant and long-lasting difference. The book also gave me a framework to understand how good habits are formed and how bad habits can be broken. It has encouraged me to analyse my own habits accordingly.

　　阅读期间，我不得不正视自己的习惯和行为。我意识到我的工作效率远没有达到我所能达到的水平，但是一些对日常生活的小调整可能会产生重大而持久的影响。这本书还给了我一个框架，让我了解好习惯是如何形成的，坏习惯是如何被打破的。它鼓励我对自己的习惯进行分析。

　　I thoroughly enjoyed reading Atomic Habits because I thought it was well researched, well reasoned and well written. The author’s ideas and advice aren’t simply his opinions; they are taken from cutting-edge research and real success stories. I enjoy reading books that change my way of thinking in some way or give me practical, life-altering ideas, and this was definitely one of those books.

　　我非常喜欢阅读 Atomic Habits，因为我认为有扎实的研究基础，条理清晰，写得也很好。作者的想法和建议不仅仅是他自己的观点，也是取自前沿研究和真实的成功案例。我喜欢阅读那些能以某种方式改变我的思维方式或给我实用的、改变生活的想法的书，这本绝对是其中之一。
