阅读理解
If you wish to become a better reader,here are four important points to remember about the speed of reading:
●
Knowing why you are reading and what you are reading to find out will often help you to know whether to read quickly or slowly.
●
Some things should be read slowly throughout.Examples are Maths problems,science and history books,which are full of important information.You must read such things slowly to remember each important step and understand each important idea.
●
Some things should be read quickly throughout.Examples are simple stories for enjoyment,letters from friends,news from local,or hometown,newspapers which tell what is happening to friends and neighbours.
●
In some of your readings,you must change your speed from fast to slow and from slow to fast as you go along.You need to read certain pages quickly and then slow down and do more careful readings when you come to important ideas which must be remembered.
