Do you want to be a good reader? If so, pay much more attention to the following suggestions on how to read.
1． Define your purpose for reading
Before you start reading, ask yourself why you are reading this book. Most people read for two main reasons—pleasure or knowledge.
Being specific and clear about your reading purpose not only helps you to avoid books that you don’t need to read. 1. This makes you keep reading actively and complete the book faster.
2．Read only what you are interested in
2. Your friends may tell you the books that they love, but those books might not necessarily be the ones you enjoy.
3．Give up books that you don’t enjoy
You may have selected books that fit your purpose. You may have selected books that you are interested in. But as you are reading them, there may still be some books that you won’t enjoy reading.
Whenever you realize that you aren’t enjoying the book you are reading, give it up. 3.
4．Set a reading aim
Having a reading goal helps you figure out how much reading you need to do in a week or even a day.
4.
Before you read each book, ask yourself when you need to complete this book.
What I find interesting is that I tend to read books that I borrow from libraries faster than the books I bought. 5. I don’t need to return those books.
When you don’t set a date to finish your book, there isn’t a sense of urgency（急迫）. And when something isn’t urgent, you tend to put off.
A. Read the books that you are interested in.
B. Remember reading shouldn’t be a tiring task.
C. Give yourself a deadline to complete each book.
D. The reason is the books I bought don’t have a due date.
E. It also reminds you why reading the book is important to you as you are reading it.
F. Whether you are reading fiction or nonfiction, it is important to enjoy what you read.
