國(guó)內(nèi)的《非誠(chéng)勿擾》大行其道的時(shí)候，倫敦的文藝青年們卻把讀書(shū)作為浪漫的約會(huì)方式。難道書(shū)中真的有顏如玉嗎？讓我們一起來(lái)看看什么是讀書(shū)約會(huì)（read dating）吧。
Read dating is a method of meeting a potential romantic partner by attending an organized event in which a person meets a series of individuals and talks briefly to each of them about a favourite book
通過(guò)與一連串的人簡(jiǎn)單談?wù)撟钕矚g的書(shū)來(lái)尋找潛在的愛(ài)侶，這種方法就叫讀書(shū)約會(huì)。
Read dating is essentially speed dating for bookworms, so that instead of familiar conversation starters such as 'Where do you work?' or 'What do you like to do in your spare time?', participants are more likely to discuss their favourite Keats poem or the latest Dan Brown novel.
讀書(shū)約會(huì)實(shí)質(zhì)上是書(shū)蟲(chóng)的速配，因此，不同于一般速配中熟悉的開(kāi)場(chǎng)白，如“您在哪兒工作？”或“您業(yè)余時(shí)間都喜歡干什么？”，參與者更可能會(huì)討論他們最喜歡的濟(jì)慈詩(shī)歌或者丹?布朗最新的小說(shuō)。
Budding soulmates are still only allowed a meagre three minutes to share their literary experiences before moving on to the next person, not a huge amount of time to decide whether they've met a prospective life partner.
處于萌芽期的靈魂伴侶也只有可憐的三分鐘來(lái)分享文學(xué)體驗(yàn)，之后就要和下一個(gè)人交流，盡管三分鐘不足以讓他們判斷是否遇見(jiàn)了有希望成為人生伴侶的人。
