THanks. After replying to your email, I thought about what you wrote, just like
what you said in the following email. So, for a normal text file, just use open
to read the file. There is no need to use the way to open a word document via
win32com to read a text file. Will win32com consume more time and memory to
read a text file than the general input stream? Thanks again.

Well, of course there is. At that point, you have a plain, old,
ordinary text file. Just use the normal Python techniques to read it.
doc = open(r'D:/projects/Myself/HelloPython/src/Drugreservoir1.txt')
for word in doc.read().split():
print word
