6. Mark key thoughts in the margins.
I know you were taught not to write in your books, and some books should be kept pristine, but a textbook is for studying. Mark key thoughts in the margins. If it makes you feel better, use a pencil. Even better, buy a packet of those little stickie tabs and slap one on the page with a short note.When it's time to review, simply read through your tabs.
我知道,大家從小就被教導(dǎo)不要往書(shū)上亂寫(xiě)。對(duì)于有些書(shū)應(yīng)該是這樣的,但教科書(shū)是用來(lái)學(xué)習(xí)的,可以在空白的地方記下一些重要的想法和心得。如果能讓 你感覺(jué)更舒服的話,你可以用鉛筆來(lái)記,更可以買些可粘貼的小便簽,在上面記些短小的筆記,然后貼到書(shū)頁(yè)上。到復(fù)習(xí)的時(shí)候,只要瀏覽一遍你的便簽便可。
If you're renting your textbooks, make sure you understand the rules.
如果你的教科書(shū)是借來(lái)的,一定要懂規(guī)矩哦。
7. Use all the tools provided -- lists, bullets, sidebars.
Use all the tools the author provides -- lists, bullets, sidebars, anything extra in the margins. Authors usually pull out key points for special treatment. They're clues to important information. Use them all. Besides, lists are usually easier to remember.
對(duì)于作者使用的寫(xiě)作表現(xiàn)形式(如列表,文字前面作為強(qiáng)調(diào)的圓形符號(hào),欄框等所有在空白處額外體現(xiàn)的東西),要加以充分利用。作者通常會(huì)把關(guān)鍵點(diǎn)拎出來(lái)加以特別處理。這些表現(xiàn)形式都是尋找重要信息的線索,一定要充分利用。此外,列表也通常更容易記。
8. Take notes for practice tests.
When you read something you know will show up on a test, write it down in the form of a question. Note the page number beside it so you can check your answers if necessary.
當(dāng)讀到一些你認(rèn)為會(huì)在考試中出現(xiàn)的知識(shí)點(diǎn)時(shí),把它以問(wèn)題的形式記下來(lái)。在問(wèn)題邊上寫(xiě)下答案所在的頁(yè)碼,以便在必要時(shí)查看答案。
Keep a list of these key questions and you'll have written your own practice test.
把這些重要問(wèn)題列在一起,你就可以進(jìn)行自我??剂恕?/p>
9. Read with good posture.
Reading with good posture helps you read longer and stay awake longer. Give your body a break. Sit in a healthy way and you'll last a lot longer.
閱讀時(shí)保持一個(gè)良好的姿勢(shì)能夠讓你更長(zhǎng)時(shí)間地,清醒地進(jìn)行閱讀。讓你的身體放松,保持健康的坐姿,你便能更長(zhǎng)時(shí)間地看書(shū)了。
Much as I love to read in bed, it puts me to sleep. If reading puts you to sleep, too, don't read lying down.
我雖然喜歡躺在床上看書(shū),但這也總是令我很快陷入昏昏欲睡的境地。如果你也是這樣的話,那就不要躺著看書(shū)了。
10. Practice, practice, practice.
Reading fast takes practice, practice, practice. Practice makes all the difference.
要實(shí)現(xiàn)閱讀速讀的提高,你必須進(jìn)行一而再,再而三的反復(fù)實(shí)踐練習(xí)。熟能生巧,實(shí)踐出真知。
Pretty soon you'll be reading faster without even realizing it.
相信很快,你就能在不知不覺(jué)中提高閱讀速讀啦!
