I used to hate people's emphasis on fast reading and how many books I read a month. Sometimes in the group, I heard someone say that reading a book every two days, or even reading a book every day, always feels incredible. With the rapid development of information technology, how to learn to use ultra-fast reading? The reason why we should master reading skills is that reading is the lowest cost way to acquire knowledge, and we can learn directly from great men at all times and in all countries.
I have read the saying that every book is like a wise man chatting. If you read 65,438+000 books and 65,438+0000 books, what a bargain! Compared with people who don't study, the former is better at thinking and has a rich amount of movable type. It is difficult for people who don't study to develop rigorous thinking ability, and their speech is usually faltering and vague.
We often see several people chatting together. Some people will hesitate for a long time in order to express their ideas with a suitable word, that is, he usually reads less and has a small vocabulary. Whether to turn reading skills into your own skills is also a question of reflecting one's ability. A person who reads a book in Harle cannot say that he has formed the habit of reading. If he reads one book a week and four books a Harle, it can be regarded as a habit of reading. Reading at least two books a week is to turn reading into a person's living habit. This is a great subversion for me. I must improve my reading quantity and speed.
Books about career, growth and methods are fast to read, which is the so-called practical books. The author truthfully wrote in the book that pure literature books are not suitable for fast reading, they are interesting and taste-oriented. It's like 10 minutes to let a person eat a full feast, which is too wasteful.
For practical books, how to master fast reading mainly includes the following methods:
1. Grasp the key points and greatly improve the speed reading ability.
2. Use the "reverse reading method" at the end of the book to quickly grasp the main points.
3. Use the "20% Reading Method" to further improve the speed reading ability, keeping in mind the key points to be grasped.
4. Think of the bookstore as a waiting place and make it a training ground for speed skills.
5. Use "searchlight mode" to search for keywords while reading.
6. Use the "simultaneous reading method" to achieve the purpose of reading a lot.
When you read a book, turn your eyes quickly and turn the pages evenly. Look at the front cover and back cover first, and then look at the outline of the catalogue, and you will probably know what this book is mainly about, just like cutting a fish open in the sun first. Set a goal and deadline to improve your speed reading skills quickly. If you buy a new book, you will plan it in your mind. I must finish it in two hours and tell my friends the essence of this book. The advantage of doing this is to study purposefully and quickly absorb the essence of the book. When telling friends, it is a summary of your reading and a deepening of your impression.
This reading method makes me suddenly enlightened and suitable for everyone.
Argumentative papers can be viewed from the end first, that is, the author's "inverse algorithm" usually concludes a book at the end, and the essence is usually the second, third and fourth chapters. New practical books don't have to be read from scratch. It is enough for us to start reading from the final conclusion part that summarizes all the main points. "This really gave me some inspiration. I used to read from beginning to end.
Mystery novels are not suitable for reading first, because you will find it boring when you look back. There is also the "20%" reading method, that is, a book only needs to read its most essential "20%" and keep it in mind. Bookstores and coffee shops are good places to study. Quiet is suitable for reading, but don't stay too long, which will force you to read quickly. This is a good way to form a habit.
Browsing the table of contents is an important skill of speed reading, and one kind of "searchlight" reading is that when a book arrives, we can quickly find its keywords through the cover table of contents, and we can set five or six keywords in our minds. Next, mark the key words you find with a pen while reading. Parallel reading can help us achieve a large number of reading goals, that is, reading 10 books at the same time, starting from what we need and reading quickly within the required range. The author said that in order to read many books, he had to finish them one by one. In fact, he missed the point.
No well-read person will read every page of his library from beginning to end.
Books are read by what you know. Therefore, the process of reading is equivalent to the accumulation of knowledge. After reaching a certain amount, a qualitative change has taken place. When you get a certain amount of knowledge coverage, improving reading speed becomes your focus. If this virtuous circle continues, the quality and quantity of your reading will increase steadily. The author also emphasized the intensive reading method of key parts with big pen and ink:
Reading aloud is the most indispensable skill in intensive reading. Reading aloud can really understand the content of the book. It is very important to pause and grasp the tone in reading aloud. In the process of reading, the meaning of words will naturally enter your brain. The most important thing is to find the part to read aloud. It is best to choose books called classics, which have universal value.
Second, translation, translation is the final intensive reading. Be good at reading the original text with the translated version. Read foreign languages. Mark the paragraphs you like in the translation you read with a pen, then find the corresponding parts in the original text to mark and read aloud. Read ancient Chinese. Read the modern translation of the article you want to read first, and then read the ancient prose aloud. I'm already using this method.
Third, reciting, human beings have the ability to remember, recite and pass on from mouth to mouth, which is an amazing ability cultivated by human beings in the long history. However, with the development of society and the emergence of computers, as long as we copy and paste, everything will be ok. Copying and pasting just pieced together the information on the internet, and it doesn't need brains at all. As a result, we can't accumulate real knowledge or even remember our own articles, so we should exercise our brains by reading aloud and reciting.
We can copy down the essence to be memorized and take it with us so that we can check it at any time, thus cultivating our ability to grasp the context of the article.
Fourth, take notes, by taking detailed reading notes, and then apply them to life and work. It is important to learn to use it flexibly. We can take more notes on books, and don't be afraid to get them dirty. Can be marked with three-color pen, red: objectively very important content; Blue: objectively more important content; Green: subjectively important content, or content you are interested in.
5. Quote the "three-paragraph quotation method": select three pages in the book and quote them when talking with people or writing diaries or essays. Discuss what you have read over and over again. After reading the book, you should continue to talk about it, or introduce it to others to deepen your impression.
Copy, this is the most effective method of intensive reading, which allows you to get in touch with the text deeply and get into your mind more easily. Read a lot about all the skills of choosing books. After reading a certain amount, you will improve your ability to choose books and find books that suit you. Expand the reading range like a snowball. If you like a particular author, you will read what that author wrote. Read books related to your career and books that interest you.
Read classic works, such as The Analects. Classic names contain the truth of universal values. But classics are difficult to read, so being good at using easy-to-understand translations and reading materials is the shortest way to understand classics. Use the reading environment. Libraries, second-hand bookstores, book bars, bookstores, Dangdang and other environments, find or retrieve the books you want. Characteristics of paper books and e-books: e-books are easy to carry, but they leave a weak impression after reading, which is suitable for reading "information" and not for absorbing nutrition.
Use all the skills you have learned:
First, we should study for the purpose of output.
Second, get into the habit of substituting the reading content into the topic.
Third, improve your speaking ability. Express your thoughts and feelings accurately.
Fourth, improve the ability to ask questions. Ability to explore and deepen the theme.
Fifth, the ability to draw inferences from others. This requires understanding the author's intention and turning the author's thinking mode into his own.
Sixth, master the key words and convince the other party. Understand other people's intentions, organize the language, grasp the key words and express neatly.
In order to develop an output-oriented reading style, use recording pens and other tools to express the books you have read. What you say is your own, so you'd better use it reasonably in your life and work. We should have friends who also love reading, exchange and retell what we have read, and stick to the reading life to the end. Reading can stimulate imagination and creativity, and is the most important means to refresh one's mind. It can improve people's self-awareness and learn the way of thinking of great philosophers. Improving the speed of thinking and understanding is nothing more than improving the speed of reading to meet the ever-increasing social needs.
