Reading is a good habit, but the problem is, there’s too much to read these days, and too little time to read every word of it. There are hundreds of skills to help you read more in less time. Here are two skills that I think are very good.

Preview — if it’s long and hard. Previewing is very useful for getting a general idea of heavy reading like long magazine articles and science reports.

Here is how to preview.

●Read the first two paragraphs and the last two paragraphs carefully.

●Then read only the first sentence of the other paragraphs.

Previewing doesn’t give you all the details. It tells you not to spend time on things you don’t really want or need to read.

Skim — if it’s short and simple. Skimming is a good way to get a general idea of light reading, like popular magazines or the sports of your daily paper.

Here’s how to skim.

●Get your eyes to move fast. Sweep them across each line.

●Pick up only a few key words in each line.

Everybody skims differently. You and I may not pick up the same words when we skim the same piece, but perhaps we’ll get the same idea of what it’s all about.

1.What does the underlined word “preview” mean in Chinese?

Should children do chores? Yes. Chores are good for them. Doing chores teaches them many important things. It will help them in their life.

There are many things that parents can do to encourage their children to do chores. Here are some suggestions:

Start early. Parents start giving their children chores to do when they are young.

Parents should show their children how to do chores and teach them one chore at a time.

Change the chores as children grow. Parents should make sure that the chores they give to their children are appropriate to (适合于）their children’s ages and abilities( 能力）.

Pay children for the chores they do. For example, pay them 1 dollar for taking out the rubbish.
