Book Genres 书籍的体裁

在图书馆里、书店里，书架上的图书琳琅满目，让人目不暇接。如何在浩如烟海的“书堆”里找到你感兴趣的书呢？这就需要我们了解书海中的“坐标”——书籍的体裁。4月23日是“世界读书日”，让我们在书香弥漫中，徐徐展开书籍世界的“航海图”，来一场探索与发现之旅吧。

Books can be generally divided into two types — fiction（虚构） and non-fiction（非虚构）. Fiction is based on the authors imagination（想象）while non-fiction is based on the facts（事实）. For example， the famous Harry Potter Series is fiction while The Grand Scribes Records（《史记》） is non-fiction. Moreover， these two types can be further divided into different genres.

In the world of fiction， we can learn magic when we read a fantasy（奇幻作品）; We laugh a lot when we read a comedy（喜剧）; We become the detectives（侦探）when we read a mystery（推理）; We know whats great writing when we read a classic（经典名著）; We also have sweet dreams after reading a fairy tale（童话）.

If we want to read something real， there are many genres to choose in non-fiction. When we are interested in a real person， we have two choices， a biography（傳记）， learning in others point of views（视角）; Or an autobiography（自传）， hearing the persons own voice. If we want to learn some new facts， lets go and explore an encyclopedia（百科全书）. When we come across some new words， search them in a dictionary（字典）！

读完短文，你了解了多少种书籍的体裁呢？和家人或朋友来下一盘与书籍有关的飞行棋吧。第一次掷骰子时，如果结果是单数就从右边开始，如果是双数就从左边开始。
