Many people have trouble with reading.Reading is a process of the brain where you look at words on a page, and your mind sees the patterns of characters and understands the meaning in them.If you develop good reading skills, it'll be very helpful to your future.Aren't your school teachers always saying “Read more books! ”?
Read as much as you are able.Start with titles, names, or other larger print items that you may know or ever thought about.When you start getting bored or need a break, take one.Reading should be fun and enjoyable, don't force it.After your break, return to where you were, and continue.
Read the page carefully.Don't rush, take your time.Most people think that skimming the pages is a way of fast reading, but this definitely not true.
Use context clues to find out a word's meaning.Context clues are when a person figures out the meaning of a word by seeing how the word was used in a sentence.For example, you were reading the following sentence and wanted to know what “pessimist” means: My mother is always happy and optimistic, the total opposite of my brother, the pessimist.So from the sentence, you can gather that “pessimist” means the opposite of happy.If you find a really difficult word, use the dictionary!
Reread! If you don't understand what you are reading, read over the sentence(s)again.Try reading the words out loud to yourself.If you still don't understand something, ask a good reader nearby to explain the sentence(s)to you, or simply pick up a book that is easier to read and more proper to your reading level.Feel free to use your finger as a pointer.It will keep your eyes focused on the line you are reading, improving your understanding!
Keep reading! Try to read as much as you can in your free time.Reading will help you in lots of ways; your vocabulary will become larger and you will notice your grades change for the better in school.Have fun reading!
To get the most comprehension, avoid lying down while reading.While reading in bed can help you relax and fall asleep, you can remember more information by having a good posture(姿势)while reading.
