使用“節奏器”，例如一支筆或手指，以在閱讀一行或一頁時，形成一種注視焦點。節奏器不僅能幫你提高速度，還能避免重復閱讀，并協助了解閱讀內容。

　　Talk about what you've read. Some readers find that by talking about their reading with friends or fellow students, they are able to effectively synthesize the material。

　　談論你所讀的內容。有人發現，讀后與朋友或同學談論他們讀過的內容，可以有效地綜合理解所讀內容。

　　Determine a reading schedule that works for you. You may find that you can't concentrate on the material for more than an hour (or a half hour). Also select a time of the day when you are alert and ready to read。

　　安排一個適合自己的閱讀計劃表。可能你會發現自己無法專心閱讀超過一小時(甚至半小時)，這時你就需要一個計劃。同時，還要注意挑選一天中思維清晰且適于閱讀是時候來讀。

　　Find a reading spot, where interruptions or distractions will not disturb your reading。

　　找到自己的“閱讀地點”，即那些不會打擾或分散你注意力的地方。

　　Practice. Practice. Practice. The best way to improve your reading speed is to practice reading. Try out some of these techniques, and then perfect the strategies that work best for you。

　　練習、練習、再練習。提高閱讀速度的最好方法，就是練習。嘗試上述方法，再結合自己完善它們。
