1. Read only the first sentence of a paragraph。
If your author is good author, he or she will begin each paragraph with a key statement that tells you what that paragraph is about. By reading only the first sentence, you can determine if the paragraph has information you need to know。
如果作者够水准的话,他/她在每段的开头都会交代一下该段所的大概内容。只要读每段的第一句话,你就能够判断出该段有没有你想了解的信息了。
If you're reading literature, this still applies, but know that you may miss details that enrich the story. When the language in literature is artful, I would choose to read every word。
如果你读的是文学作品的话,这个方法依然适用。不过要知道,这样的话你可能会错过很多用于丰富故事的细节。如果所读的文学作品妙语连珠的话,我会选择逐字逐句地拜读。
