阅读理解。
This year in your grade you will have a lot of reading to do. You can do more of it in less time if you learn
to read rapidly.
Perhaps you have been told about some habits which keep a person from reading fast and have been strongly
asked to break those habits which you might have.
Do you still have any of these bad habits? Check yourself by answering "yes" or "no" to these questions:
a. Do you move your lips when reading silently?
b. Do you point to those words with your fingers as you read?
c. Do you move your head from side to side as you read?
d. Do you read one word at a time?
If you answer "yes" to any of these questions, start at once to break the habit. If you move your lips, hold
your fingers over them, or hold a piece of paper between your lips while you are reading. Then if your lips
move, you will know it and stop them moving.
If you point to words, hold the two sides of your book, one side with your left hand, the other side with your
right hand. Then you won't have a free finger to use in pointing while reading. If you move your head, place
your chin in one hand, and hold your head still.
If you read no more than one or two or three words at a time, you need to work very hard in learning to take
in more words at each glance when your eyes are traveling across the lines of words.
Even if you do read fairly fast now, you can learn to read even faster. As you probably have been told, the
secret of fast reading is to take in whole groups of words at each glance. Read in groups and force your eyes
along the lines of words as fast as you can make them go. Anyone who practices doing these two things will
be able to read faster.
