10.For people with thousands of pages to read,speed reading seems like a manna (甘露) from heaven.In addition,speed reading helps lighten the load of information you have to absorb since it provides a filter that you can use in screening all bits of information before you approach them.
(71)FExamining how much information you need will help you identify how you should read a certain document to maximize your learning and comprehension.Thorough reading may no longer be necessary in some cases,such as when you only need an outline of a certain document.
Another skill that can ease the burden of a reader is the ability to read words in blocks.Make sure you do not spend too long on a certain block.(72)BThis will also make reading less tiresome and boring.
To master this important skill,you have to practice reading more and more words in a certain block at one time.A suggestion shared by some experts regarding this step is to increase the distance between you and the document you are reading.If you can read more and more words in one block,you can cut down on the time it usually takes you to read a certain text and you will be able to read more in a shorter period.
Readers should also practice reducing the number of times they go back to previous sections or blocks.Using a pointer such as the tip of a pencil or pen can also help to make the flow of your reading smoother and faster.(73)AThus,your speed in reading will largely depend on the speed of the movement of your pointer.
If you still find yourself confused about the topic even after you have finished reading the document,do not re-read right away.Re-reading immediately will just lead to slower speed in reading.(74)CGetting your own reading corner will also help.
(75)DContinue practicing and practicing the techniques aforementioned and soon,you'll achieve the reading speed that will work best for you.
A.In this technique,your eyes will follow the tip of the pointer.
B.This saves time and reduces the effort that you have to make.
C.Taking a short break first is recommended before reading the material again.
D.As a final note,the most important point is consistent and deliberate practice.
E.Your invaluable time can be saved if you can have your reading speed doubled.
F.The first step to increase your reading speed is to identify the specific information you need.
G.Reducing the time you spend on a specific number of words in a block will make no difference.
分析 本文属于说明文阅读,作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了加快阅读速度的五种方式:确定需要的具体阅读信息,提高阅读板块的单词的能力,使用指针阅读,不要立即重读,持续认真地练习阅读.
解答 71.F.推理判断题.根据文章第二段"Examining how much information you need will help you identify how you should read a certain document to maximize your learning and comprehension"检查你需要多少信息将帮助你确定你应该如何阅读一个特定的文档,以最大限度地提高你的学习和理解能力,可知提高阅读速度的第一步要知道你需要什么信息.故选F.
72.B.推理判断题.根据文章第三段"This will also make reading less tiresome and boring."这也将使阅读不那么疲惫和无聊,可知,此处作者介绍"一目十行"阅读技巧的好处.故选B.
73.A.推理判断题.根据第四段前一句话中"a pointer"提示可知,此处作者建议用笔尖指着字,然后眼睛盯着笔尖读,这样可以加快速度.故选A.
74.C.推理判断题.根据语境可知,根据文章倒数第二段"Re-reading immediately will just lead to slower speed in reading"立即重读会导致阅读速度慢.可知建议我们不要立刻回头重新读,而要停一下.故选C.
75.D.推理判断题.根据文章最后一段"Continue practicing and practicing the techniques aforementioned"要持续练习上述的技术,可知,最后一条建议是要一致和深思熟虑的练习.故选D.
点评 考察学生的推理判断能力和联系上下文的能力,在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实,要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断.此类的填空题一定要联系上下文,根据上下文的内容加上自己的理解,再作出正确的判断.
