Studying the humanities improves your ability to read and write. No matter what you do in life, you will have a huge advantage if you can read a paragraph and discern its meaning (a rarer talent than you might suppose). You will have enormous power if you are the person in the office who can write a clear and concise memo.学习人文学科可提高你的读写能力。不管你在生活中做什么事，如果你能读一段文章并理解它的意思（一种比你料想的还要珍贵的天赋），你就具有极大的优势。如果你是办公室里那个能够写出简明扼要的备忘录的人，你将拥有巨大的权势。Studying the humanities will give you a familiarity with the language of emotion. In an information economy, many people have the ability to produce a technical innovation: a new MP3 player. Very few people have the ability to create a great brand: the iPod. Branding involves the location and arousal of affection, and you can’t do it unless you are conversant in the language of romance.学习人文学科会使你精通情感语言。在一个信息经济时代，许多人有能力作出技术革新：一个新的MP3播放器。极少数人有能力创造一个伟大的品牌：iPod。做品牌包括定位和情感的激发，如果你不熟悉浪漫的语言，你就做不到。
