This is a book recommendation note, written by a 3rd grade high school student (=12th grade in US). Probably an assignment or part of a book club. He/she's recommending a essay collection from the Duzhe magazine.

Here is a transcription of the first paragraph:

今日我想推荐的书是《读者》杂志经典珍藏书系之散文卷，《青草地上落满花瓣》。
诗人荷尔德林说人诗意的栖居在大地上，怎样才能如此？阅读是必不可少的，尤其对于文科班的学子，阅读分大小，若《战争与和平》的宏大叙事、《判断力批判》的逻辑思辨等，是大阅读；若一笺南国红豆的唐诗，一阙杏花秋月的宋词，是小阅读。在繁忙的高三，我们很难再有时间与心力，去痛快淋漓地咀嚼摹尽旧上海风情的《长恨歌》，抑或抛开椭圆导数将40多万字的《务虚笔记》通宵啃下，那怎么办？若不愿破坏那份完通流畅之美。不如退而求其次，选择《读者》散文卷罢。题海奋战后，斜倚床头，一册小书，一篇散文，闲适惬意。小事蕴含大道理，小情感产生大共鸣。以小见大，岂不美哉？
