It has been said, “Not everything that is learned is contained in books. “Compare and contrast knowledge gained from experience with knowledge gained from books. In your opinion, which source is more important? Why?

A man learns throughout his life whether it is from
books

or from experiences.
However
Linking Words
,
knowledge
Use synonyms
gained from these two sources is different in many ways which are explained in the following paragraphs.In my opinion, getting
knowledge
Use synonyms
from
books
Use synonyms
is temporary and one forgets with the passage of time but
knowledge
Use synonyms
gained from experiences retains forever. Generally in
books
Use synonyms
, one can take
knowledge
Use synonyms
as a whole about something, but small things which are more significant can be gained only by doing something practically.
For example
Linking Words
in the profession of a
doctor
Use synonyms
, a patient would always prefer an experienced
doctor
Use synonyms
rather than a new young
doctor
Use synonyms
,
although
Linking Words
they both have the same educational qualifications.
This
Linking Words
is because an old
doctor
Use synonyms
has already gained some more important things and tactics of his profession with the passing years about which a young
doctor
Use synonyms
has no
knowledge
Use synonyms
.
Similarly
Linking Words
, becoming a teacher is not about teaching students from the
books
Use synonyms
, teaching is about using techniques with which a student can easily grab lessons and these techniques a teacher learns with years of experience.
On the other hand
Linking Words
, if someone wants to know about the past,
in other words
Linking Words
about history,
then
Linking Words
books
Use synonyms
are the only source. Because study related to history can only be done from
books
Use synonyms
as going in the past and experiencing every event is not possible. In that case, one has to rely on
books
Use synonyms
.There are some moral values which might
also
Linking Words
not easily be built into someone like sharing adjusting helping. These values someone built in himself by meeting needy people and facing situations in which sharing and adjusting is the only key to living peacefully in society.
For example
Linking Words
, a person who has lived in a hostel or in paying guest houses has better adjusting , sharing and tolerance rather than a person who has always been pampered by his parents and lived in his home. In conclusion,
books
Use synonyms
are for basic
knowledge
Use synonyms
and lessons gained from experiences are for whole life in my view.
Therefore
Linking Words
, experience is a better source of
knowledge
Use synonyms
.
