Reading rates 阅读速度 Each type of reading has a different rate; an exciting novel is a quicker read than a text in biology. 阅读不同的文章应该采用不同的阅读速度。阅读一本精彩的小说所需的阅读速度应该比阅读一本生物学的著作要快。 Text books vary in how well they are written;as a consequence some are more difficult to read. 课本上的文章写得有好有坏,所以有些文章更为难读,阅读速度也就更慢。 Each semester, time yourself reading a chapter in each of your text books. See how many pages an hour you can read. Once you have an accurate estimate of your reading rate, you can better plan your reading time and studying time. 每个学期,你都应该记录一下自己阅读各种课本上一章内容所花的时间。看看一个小时的时间里你能读完多少页。当你能准确的估算自己的阅读速度,你就能更好的安排自己的阅读时间和学习时间了。 Comprehension 阅读理解 Scan the chapter first. 先浏览一下全文的段落章节。 Identify the sections to which the author devotes the most amount of space. If there are lots of diagrams for a particular concept, then that must also be an important concept. If you're really pressed for time, skip the sections to which the least amount of space is devoted. |
