You can do more of it in less time if you learnto read rapidly. Perhaps you have been told about some habits which keep a person from reading fast and havebeen strongly asked to break those which you might have.Do you still have any of these bad habits? Check yourself by answering yes or no to these questions. (1) Do you move your lips (嘴唇) when reading silently? (2) Do you point to words with your finger as you read? (3) Do you move your head from side to side as you read? (4) 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, holdyour fingers over them, or hold a piece of paper between your lips while you are reading. Then if your lipsmove, you will know it and can stop them.If you point to words, hold the two sides of your book, one side with your left hand, the other side withyour right hand. Then you wont 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 (静止不动的). If you read no more than one or two three words at a time, you need to work very hard in learning to takein more words at each glance (一瞥) as your eyes travel across the lines of words.Even if you do rather fast now, you can learn to read even faster. As you probably have been told, the fastreading is to take in whole groups of words as each glance.
