1? F (In order to get the most out of any book and to absorb it fully, we must write between the lines as well as read between the lines. In this sense, the two phrases are complementary to each other.)
2? F (The writer talks about marking a book on condition that it is your own book. Books borrowed from a friend or the library, or text?books kept on reserve in universities, should not be marked.)

4? F (Once you have bought a book, you become its true owner only when you have made it a part of yourself. The writer makes a comparison between reading a book and consuming a beefsteak in order to explain what “full”, “real” ownership is.)
