can you symplify this in a short and very simple way?
A STUDENT reads a novel.
STUDENT: Man, I'm really loving this book I'm reading but I kept on running into this phrase, Appalachian Mountains. I didn’t know where they were. Honestly, I didn’t know how to say their name! So, I looked it up in the dictionary.

STUDENT: The dictionary helped me pronounce the word and it gave me a bit of information about it but I didn’t have enough information that really helped me understand the word. The dictionary says it’s a geographical name. That made me think there might be more information in the encyclopedia.

STUDENT: Now, I was getting the information I needed to understand! The encyclopedia not only explained where the mountains are but the history of the people who lived there.
Sometimes, a general reference like the dictionary is just the first step. Don’t forget specialized reference materials!
STUDENT: Now, if you’ll excuse me, I got a book to finish.

A student is enjoying a book but doesn’t know what the "Appalachian Mountains" are or how to say it. They look it up in the dictionary, which helps with pronunciation but not much else. Then, they find more detailed information in the encyclopedia, learning about the location and history of the mountains. The student reminds everyone that dictionaries are just a starting point and that encyclopedias can provide more detailed knowledge. Then, they go back to reading their book.
