阅读几乎占据了考研的半壁江山,不仅要求速度快,同时要求准确率高,能够快速准确的找到正确选项,是考研人共同的理想,下面是几个提升阅读速度的小技能,供大家参考。大家可以尝试多多练习。
Dont repeat
不要重复
This is the thing that really slows us down. Whenever you find yourself repeating the words in your mind or out loud you are significantly decreasing the speed of your reading. The goal is to read with your eyes, not with your mouth. The easiest trick around this is to repeat something else instead. Something like: 1 2 3 4 5 or a e i o u. This will occupy your mind with a simple activity so theres no other way for you to read than to use only your eyes which is the true secret of speed reading.
这肯定会降低我们的阅读速度。每次当你发现自己正在脑海里或是嘴里不自觉的重复读的字时,那意味着你在减慢自己的阅读速度。我们的目标是用眼睛阅读,而不是嘴。最简单的诀窍是重复其他的东西。比如说1,2,3,4,5或a, e, I ,o ,u。这会让你的思想注意在简单的事情上,这时你除了用眼睛就没法用其他的方式阅读了,这是快速阅读最有效的诀窍。
Focus
集中注意力
This may sound obvious but its worth mentioning here. When I was reading something in the past, even if it was interesting, I found myself wandering off and thinking about other things, so I had to re-read the same sentence a couple of times. It was, lets say, doable to read an article or a chapter of a book despite not being present with your mind. However, when youre speed reading its totally impossible to do it and be thinking about something else at the same time, so focus!
这显而易见,但还是值得一提。以前当我阅读的时候,就算是我非常感兴趣的东西,也会走神去想其他事情,从而不得不回头去重新读已经读过的句子。虽说你走神的时候阅读文章或是书中段落也是可行的,但如果你想快速阅读,那就不可能一边阅读一边想其他的事情。所以,请集中注意力!
The third word rule
第三字定律
Heres what you do: start reading each line on the third word, and end each line on the third word from the end. Dont worry, you wont lose any information. Your eyes will catch those first and last words too, by using something called the peripheral vision.
As an example consider such a line of text:
Marry had a little lamb but she ate it for supper.
The words in bold indicate the focus points.
你要做的就是:从每行第3个字开始阅读,在每行倒数第3个字结束阅读。不必担心,你不会漏看任何信息。用眼睛的余光你会看到开头和结尾的几个字。
举个例子,看下面这句话:
玛丽把她的小羊羔炖了做晚饭。
黑体字就是你要开始和结束的地方。
Dont read every word separately
不要单个的读每个字
The easiest way of doing this is to read from a bigger distance (like 2ft). The goal here is to not focus on single words individually, but to read two or three of them in just one snapshot. So the idea is, you look at a fragment of text and read a couple of words all at once, then you take another snapshot of the words next to them, and so on.
这样做最好的办法就是离远点阅读(约2英尺)。这里的目标是不要把注意力集中在单个字上,而是一眼就读2~3个字。这样做的好处就是看一眼文章就能一次读几个字,下一眼就能看到相邻的几个字,依次类推。
Dont skip back
不要倒回去读
This is a very common problem. It happens without us even knowing it (at first). The fact that skipping back to re-read a single word (or even a whole sentence) slows you down is obvious. If you want to improve the speed of your reading you have to fight this habit. But first you have to acknowledge that it exists, realize that you are indeed doing it. Then simply try to stop. Reading with your finger helps a lot here, just remember to follow the finger at all times.
这是很普遍的问题。一开始我们甚至不会意识到这个问题。回头重复阅读词语(甚至整个句子)会明显减慢阅读速度。如果你想提高阅读速度,就必须改掉这个习惯。但首先你必须承认这个问题存在,意识到你正在这样做。然后就尽量改掉它。跟着手指阅读会帮助你改掉这个毛病,只要记住任何时候都跟着手指走。
Start too fast
开始快点读
Start reading too fast to be able to comprehend everything comfortably. Then after a page or two slow down to the speed thats comfortable for you. Just like driving on a highway, if youre doing 90 and slow down to 70 it feels slow, but if youre doing 50 and speed up to 70 it feels fast even though its the same speed.
一开始快点读,直到你能适应这个速度。读几页后回到你适合的速度。这就像你在告诉路上开车时,从90码后来降到70码,你会感觉慢,但是从50码加速到70码时,虽然速度相同,但感觉上快多了。
