The first thing about speed-reading is looking at the word and recognizing it.Don't say the word in your mind, just look at it and recognize its appearance.Later you will recognize groups of four words or more to increase your speed.This is the first and most important step in speed-reading.

The next step is technique.As with any other skill, speed-reading requires technique.You should first be sitting up straight with your book on a horizontal (水平的) surface, such as a table or desk.Next, should be able to see the entire page.This is necessary if you want to recognize clumps of words.Lastly, you should be focused.It's hard to read a lot of noise.Find a quiet place to read.This will help your understand of the text.You need something to guide your eyes while reading.Then right, you should use your hand, Remember when you were little, you would read using your finger.That is a great technique, only now you're using your hand to underline each line.Move your finger smoothly across page.No need to go rush , start our slow.Keep your eyes focused on words as you recognize them while using your hand as a guide.This will increase you speed.

Employees are being flooded with too much information that has little to do with their work, according to a new survey.
On average, white-collar workers spend 51 percent of their work time receiving and processing information. Only one third of it was relevant to their work, the survey found. Information overload for white collar workers has become a global issue. The huge amount of information has already affected their efficiency in management as well as their performance at work.
Buried with e-mails
Every morning, a secretary at the human resources department of an auto parts company opens her e-mail box, only to find it crammed with at least 50 unread mails. For her, even scanning through these e-mails every day takes at least half an hour. Some of her colleagues are not so lucky — they have to read at least 100.
Bothered with calls
Telephone calls are also causing a problem. More than 40 percent white-collar workers chose mobile phones as the preferred way to communicate important and urgent business matters.
Talking saves time and energy over the clicking, reading and replying to e-mails, but phone calls are also more distracting(分心的). While answering a call, a clerk is likely to put away a much more important task at hand and start the business being talked about on the phone.
Solution? Not yet.
Many companies start with providing staff with better computers, better Internet access and more advanced gadgets(装置). For example, staff members above a certain level in one company will be provided with a blackberry phone for easier access to their e-mails. The company has also organized many lectures on efficient ways of e-mail management. Yet most white-collar workers think their companies can do more.
【小题1】What does the new survey find about white-collar workers?

Jonathan James looks like just another kid about to graduate from high school. But this 19-year-old Swede is anything but ordinary; from the computer in his parents' home he helps the US Federal Bureau Investigation (FBI) find out the world's most wanted cyber criminals (网络犯罪分子).

    Jonathan first made headlines when he and another Swede, Fredrik Bjoerck, found out the maker of the “Melissa” virus (病毒) in March 1999. He came to the aid of the FBI again on May 7, finding out the suspected (嫌疑) sender of the dangerous “I LOVE YOU” virus. The suspect was caught in Manila on May 8.

    Jonathan's special skills are in hot demand as officials around the world express alarm at the virtual crime-wave. In between studying for final exams, hanging out with friends and refereeing his younger brother's football matches, the quiet, gentle teenager also gives lessons on e-security (电子安全) to large companies. He reads a lot and exchanges information with other computer experts to know much about the latest tricks of the hacker trade.

    Many companies have already tried to employ him, but he is not interested at the moment. Instead, he plans to begin law school in the autumn at Sweden's Uppsala University and start up his own e-security company.

    Although he works with the FBI now and then, his family insists he's just “a regular kid”. “Jonathan is a great kid. He has his friends and he does a lot more than just play with the computer.” his little sister Tessa said, adding that he helps the FBI because “he likes to help”, not because he's looking for fame and recognition.

    When the world was hit by the “Love Bug” virus. Jonathan was too busy preparing a lecture on e-security to look into the problem. “Finally on May 7, I had some free time, so I began looking.” Within a few hours, he has found the suspect and E-mailed his method and results to the FBI. He said his work on the “Melisa” virus, which took three weeks to solve, was a big help in finding the suspect so quickly.

    “This time I knew exactly where to start, I know what to disregard and what to look at.”

1The public started to know something about Jonathan just from ________.

    A. his helping the USA FBI to find out the sender of the dangerous “I LOVE YOU” virus

    B. his work together with Fredrik Bjoerck to find out the maker of the “Melissa” virus

    C. his little sister's talk about his good qualities as a regular kid and a good programmer

    D. his speech on e-security to many computer companies after his fight against hackers

2The sentence “Jonathan first made headlines” in the second paragraph means ________.

    A. Jonathan write headlines for articles for the first time

    B. Jonathan write headlines for papers for the first time

    C. Jonathan became popular in newspapers

    D. Jonathan appeared in the headlines of newspapers

3From Jonathan's success in finding out the sender of the dangerous “Love Bug” virus we can infer that ________.

    A. where there is a will, there is a way

    B. experience is knowledge

    C. hard work leads to success

    D. failure is the mother of success

4What do we know about Jonathan?

    A. He is a good fame hunter with various abilities.

    B. He is such a brave fighter that criminals will feel afraid.

    C. He is an expert on security, not interested in running a company.

    D. He is a regular kid but does something unusual.

5In the passage the writer mainly wanted to ________.

    A. tell us how to find out cyber-criminals

    B. how FBI finds out cyber-criminals with the help of a kid

    C. where the most wanted-cyber criminals are
