本文为议论文。作者首先提出自己的观点：Both ways have their advantages. 在正文中作者对比买书，举出充分的论据来说明借书的好处，然后作者又说明有些书需要买。这样，避免了使观点绝对化，又很客观地说明了问题。最后作者得出结论：So I think books are of two kinds： books for borrowing and books for buying. 接着又用两句话解释了该结论。文章观点明确，论据充分，论证严密。

表示对比：On the other hand
表示列举：First，Another.。.， In addition(此外，引出补充论据)
表示对比或转折：However
