Information reading method
The purpose of this kind of reading is only to understand the situation. We read newspapers, advertisements, brochures, etc. Belongs to this reading method. For these materials, readers mostly use the method of fast reading, and their eyes should scan quickly from word to word like electronic scanning, so as to capture what they need in time and discard irrelevant parts. Anyone who wants to understand the current situation or study a certain period of history is indispensable. However, whether you need to interrupt, intensive reading or pause for a moment of reflection depends on the material you read.
Reading methods of literary works
In addition to content, literary works also have rhetorical and rhythmic significance. Therefore, you should read slowly and hear every word clearly. If your lips don't move, it's only because you are lazy. For example, when reading the word "stress", the throat muscles should move at the same time. When reading a poem, you should pay more attention to the sound, even if a syllable is missed in a line, you can still hear it. When reading prose, we should pay attention to its rhythm, listen to the sounds before and after the words, and get our own perception and understanding from metaphors or combinations of words.
Only by making full use of this language reception ability can writers' works absorb their intelligence, imagination and writing skills. This auditory reading method-receiving text signals through eyes, translating them into sounds, reaching the throat, and then understanding them, is ultimately related to our imagination.
Reading methods of classic works
This method is used to read philosophical, economic, military and classical works. Reading these works is as slow as reading literary works, but readers often look away from the book and think carefully about every word in the book to capture the author's true intention and understand the profound philosophy. It is worth noting that if we read literary works by reading classic works, it is often easy to ignore the characteristics of literary works and make readers fall into the corner of the so-called history of literary concepts.
Anesthetic reading method
This kind of reading is just for fun. Just like taking narcotics, readers forget their existence and get carried away in infinite fantasies. Such readers are generally not interested in their own experiences and feelings, and put themselves completely out of the book. If we read the famous works with narcotic reading methods, readers can only get some superficial plots with their own fantasies, which will reduce the immortal famous works to the level of vulgar works by Yuanyang Butterfly School writers.
Reading Anna karenin casually is like reading a lame love triangle novel. Anesthetic reading will reach its peak when it is about to enter adulthood. Anesthesia reading of young people is the reason for the poor quality of a large number of literary works.
Different reading materials should use different speeds. For example, reading an exciting novel is faster than reading a biology textbook.
Different textbooks are used at different speeds, because some are well written and some are poorly written, so some are more difficult to read. When reading a chapter of different textbooks every semester, set a time for yourself to see how many pages you can read in an hour. Once you have a more accurate estimate of your reading speed, you can better arrange your reading and study time.
Extensive reading is a frequently used intensive reading method. It is usually carried out in five steps:
1, browse. It is to have a bird's eye view of the article, read it through in a short time, get a lot of effective information, get the overall impression, and have a general understanding of the theme, main idea or viewpoint and material of the article.
Step 2 ask questions. According to the impression of browsing and your own needs, ask questions that need to be clear, so that the goal of reading the article is specific and clear. Problems can be designed from both content and form. The content includes the central idea, social significance, author's situation, writing background and motivation, content points, learning of main chapters and paragraphs, etc. Form includes the structural layout of the article, the relevance of each part, genre form, means of expression, language characteristics, and the scrutiny of words.
3. intensive reading. This is a crucial step. You must read the article carefully, circle, mark and comment, make clear the meaning of words and phrases, understand the content paragraph by paragraph, sort out clues, grasp the theme, make a summary, copy cards, write notes, outline and draw tables for your own problems, and solve the problems concretely.
4. recite. Emphasis on remembering what needs to be memorized is not necessarily a word-for-word recitation. You can try to remember it, then compare it with the article repeatedly, and try to remember it accurately and quickly. You can also repeat the main content of the article, memorize the outline and remember the main points.
5. review. Including systematically sorting out the outline and reading notes, reviewing the solutions to major problems and completing necessary exercises. The comprehensive application of the law of perception, memory and thinking can make reading achieve better results.
