How to Improve Speed Reading Skills
怎樣提高閱讀速度
Speed reading is one of many skills that can improve your reading comprehension and shorten your study time. Many scholars consider speed reading to be the same as skimming, pointing out that you cannot speed read a text and expect the same amount of comprehension that you would get if you read it at a normal pace. However, skimming is a helpful tool in pre-reading and in reviewing texts, as well as in quickly gathering targeted information.
在衆多閱讀方法中，快速閱讀能有效地提高你對閱讀的理解，同時縮短你的學習時間。許多學者把快速閱讀等同於快速瀏覽，並指出你不能在快速閱讀的同時期待達到和正常速度閱讀一樣的閱讀質量。然而，快速瀏覽在做閱讀準備、回顧文章內容，和快速整理閱讀信息時，時非常有效的閱讀方法。
Method 1: Improving Your Speed Reading Techniques
方法一: 提高你的快速閱讀技巧
at groups of words, not single words. If you read a text one word at a time, then this will slow your reading speed way down. However, if you can get into the habit of reading groups or chunks of words at one time, then you can read much faster.
學會看詞組，而不是單個的詞彙。如果你一個字一個字地閱讀文章，這會大大降低你的閱讀速度。然而，如果你可以養成閱讀詞組或一次性閱讀大量詞彙的習慣，你就讀得比以前快很多了。
Start by trying to look at a group of three or four words at once, then work up to looking at an entire line of words.
從一次性看三到四個詞彙開始，然後嘗試看一整行的單詞。
Focus on words that give the sentence meaning, such as the nouns and verbs and pay less attention to the filler words, such as “A, the, and, etc.”
重點關注那些賦予句子含義的詞彙，比如名詞和動詞，並少關注“填充詞彙”，比如“a, the, and”。

2．Read with your hands. Use your finger to push yourself through the page. As you read, move your hand left to right under the text as if underlining it. Move your hand at the speed which you would like to read. You may start by moving at a slightly faster pace than your ordinary reading, and speed up on subsequent readings.
用你的手來閱讀。用你的手指來推動閱讀進程。在閱讀過程中，你可以像給文本劃下劃線一樣從左向右並用你想要的閱讀速度來移動你的手指。你可以嘗試用比你的正常閱讀速度更快一點的速度來移動手指，從而加快你閱讀後面內容的速度。
While it used to be claimed that this use of the hand or finger "guided" the eye, it now appears that the finger sets the pace of reading rather than guiding its path. This is because it is difficult to pace the movements of your eyes, but easy to pace the movements of your hands.
雖然這種方法以前被認爲是用手指來指引眼睛的移動，但它現在更傾向於被認爲是控制閱讀速度的方法，而非控制閱讀的路徑。這是因爲控制眼睛的移動非常困難，但控制手指的移動非常簡單。
You can also use a pen or other object to pace yourself.
你也可以用一支筆或其他物品去調整你的閱讀速度。
3．
Scan for keywords. Scanning is a highly effective way of extracting answers from a text without really reading it. If you know exactly what you are looking for—a name, a date, a statistic, or a specific word—you can find it quickly by skipping over large chunks of the text. To scan, first visualize the word, number, or phrase you would like to find. Then, run your eyes rapidly over the text. The information you are looking for should pop out at you.
掃描關鍵詞。掃描是一種非常高效的使你不用仔細閱讀就能提取文章重要信息的方法。如果你確定你在尋找什麼內容- 一個名字，一個日期，一個數據，或者一個明確的單詞- 你可以跳過大量文本而快速找到它。你需要首先設想好那個你想要找的單詞、數字，或短語，然後用你的眼睛快速搜索文本中的關鍵詞。這樣，你想找的信息會很快出現在你眼前。
Try scanning with your hands or a pen, preferably a blue or black pen. Experiment with shapes to see which gets you the quickest results.
嘗試用你的手或一支筆來掃描信息，最好是一支藍色或黑色的筆。做一個小實驗，看哪個能讓你得到最快的結果。
4．Chunk the material. One of the reasons you read slowly is that you have to pause sometimes to understand what a passage is saying. You might also have to go back and reread things you have already read. To improve your speed reading, try to pause for reflection only at the end of a reading session (i.e. after about 15 to 20 minutes) or after finishing a section, such as chapter.
把閱讀材料分成大塊。導致閱讀速度慢的原因之一是你有時需要停下來理解這段話在講些什麼。你可能還需要回顧你已經讀過的內容，去理解和消化它所表達的含義。爲了快速閱讀，你可以嘗試只在每一個閱讀階段結束時停下來，進行十五到二十分鐘的反思和回顧，或者在每個閱讀部分或章節結束的時候停下來思考。
To check for comprehension at the end of every speed reading session, write down keywords, or just summarize what you read in a few sentences or by explaining it to someone. This will help you keep to improve your comprehension, and it will also help you to retain information better.
在每個快速閱讀階段結束後確認自己是否理解閱讀內容，你可以寫下這段閱讀的關鍵詞，用幾句話總結這段閱讀材料，或者嘗試向別人解釋這段閱讀內容。這樣做會幫助你的理解閱讀，也會幫助你更好地保留閱讀信息。
Method 2: Trying the SQR3 method
方法二：嘗試SQR3方法
1.
Survey the text. Before you read, read all titles, chapter and section headings, subheadings, and any charts, graphs, diagrams, questions, and summaries you can find.
調查閱讀文本。在你閱讀之前，讀一遍文章的題目，章節和每個部分的標題、副標題，任何表格、圖表、圖表、問題，和你可以找到的所有總結。
If you are reading a text without these things, you might consider reading the first and last sentence of every paragraph or chapter to get an idea of the material the text is covering.
如果你讀的閱讀文本沒有上述這些內容，你可以考慮讀每段的第一句和最後一句話，從而得知這篇文章主要在講些什麼。
2.
Write questions. Write down any questions you hope your reading will answer. You will comprehend more if you go into the text knowing what you want to learn. If you are not sure what you want to learn, go through and turn every chapter heading, section title, etc. into a question. Try to guess what the text will teach you: ask yourself the question you think the text might answer.
寫下你的問題。寫下任何你想從文中找到答案的問題。如果你知道你想從文中得到什麼，你在閱讀的時候會理解得更多。如果你不確定自己想從閱讀中學到些什麼，瀏覽一遍文本，然後把每個章節的擡頭、每個閱讀部分的標題等都轉化成一個問題。猜一猜這篇閱讀會教給你什麼：問你自己一些你覺得這篇閱讀會回答你的問題。
If you like, add further questions while you read.
如果你喜歡，在閱讀過程中增添一些你想問的問題。
3.
Recite the answers. Now that you've read, you should be able to answer the questions you asked yourself. Answer all the questions you have read. You do not have to write them down (unless that is your assignment), just recite them aloud.
背誦文章裏的答案。現在你已經閱讀了文章，你應該可以回答你之前提出的問題了。回答所有問題，不用把答案寫下來，只要大聲地背誦答案就好。
If you are pausing after each section, make sure you can recite the answer to that section before you move on to the next. If you cannot, go back and skim it again.
如果你在每個閱讀部分停下來，你需要在閱讀下一個部分之前確保你可以背誦這一部分的答案。如果不能，你需要回顧這部分內容。
If you feel you made an error in the framing of one of your questions, reframe it so that you can answer it.
如果你覺得你在構思問題的時候犯了錯誤，重新提一個你可以回答的問題。
Method 3: Setting Yourself Up for Success
方法三：爲成功做好準備
1.
Expand your vocabulary. Running into words you don't know is one of the great bogs of speed reading. You're likely to get stuck on words with meanings you don't know, and likely to miss key information. To expand your vocabulary, read more. When you don't know a word, look it up.
擴充你的詞彙量。碰到不認識的單詞是快速閱讀的障礙之一。你可能會因爲不知道單詞的意思而錯過文章的重要信息。你需要更多的閱讀來擴充你的詞彙量，如果遇到不認識的單詞，你需要查字典。
If you are reading a certain genre of text, such as a medical textbook, it will help to study basic medical jargon before you start reading.
如果你在閱讀一篇題材特殊的文章，比如醫學課本，在開始閱讀之前瞭解一些基本的醫學用語會幫助你理解文本。
Reading broadly in the fields that interest you will expand your vocabulary.
在你感興趣的領域進行大量的閱讀會幫助你擴充詞彙量。
2.
Take notes. If comprehension is your goal, then processing what you just wrote is your best tool. After you've completed your speed reading of a text, take some time to reflect on it. Write down key ideas, discuss them with a friend, or just free-write about your impressions.
記筆記。如果理解文章是你的目標，審閱你在閱讀過程中記下的筆記會是一種有效的理解文本的方法。在快速閱讀一篇文章之後，你需要一些時間去思考這篇文章的內容。
Don't make marks or highlight the text—this will interfere with your speed reading, and it may distract you from the information you are trying to absorb.
不要在文本中標記或加高亮- 這會影響你的快速閱讀，使你從你試圖汲取的信息中分心。
