Reading is a good habit, but the problem is, there's too much to read these days, and too little time to read every word of it. There are hundreds of skills to help you read more in less time. Here are two skills that I think are especially good.
Preview - if it's long and hard. Previewing is especially useful for getting a general idea of heavy reading like long magazine articles and business reports.
Here's how to preview.
◆ Read the first two paragraphs and the last two paragraphs carefully.
◆ Then read only the first sentence of the other paragraphs.
Previewing doesn't give you all the details. It keeps you from spending time on things you don't really want- or need- to read.
Skim- if it's short and simple. Skimming is a good way to get a general idea of light reading like popular magazines or the sports and entertainment of your daily paper.
Here's how to skim.
◆ Get your eyes to move fast. Sweep them across each line.
◆ Pick up only a few key words in each line.
Everybody skims differently. You and I may not pick up the same words when we skim the same piece, but we'll get a similar idea of what it's all about.
1.What does the underlined word "preview" mean in English?
A.Read carefully and thoroughly B.Read silently
C.Read aloud D.Read fast and skim for the general idea
2.What should we NOT do when we read sports news in a daily paper according to the passage?
A.Read the last two paragraphs carefully
B.Get our eyes to move fast.
C.Sweep our eyes across each line.
D.Pick up only a few key words in each line.
3.Which of the following is WRONG?
A.Skim means reading quickly. It's a good way to read.
B.There are ways for you to read more in less time.
C.By previewing you can get all the details of the passage.
D.People can spend less time doing more reading.
4.What is the best title for this passage?
A.How to Read Faster. B.What to Read.
C.When to Read. D.Why We Should Read.

Books written in the Gothic(哥特式) style are popular all over the world. A feature of these books is that they usually mix fiction, horror and death. They have romantic scenes at times. Gothic style books first appeared in the late 1700s in Great Britain. They were especially popular during Victorian times(1837-1901). Many of s novels we read today, such as Jane Eyre and Frankenstein, are from that time period.
Dr Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by British author Robert Louis Stevenson(1850-1894) is a famous Gothic novel.
One of the story's most important characters is Dr Jekyll, a doctor with a kind heart who lives in London. He and his close friend Mr. Utterson often have dinner together. But one day, Utterson notices Dr. Jekyll behaving strangely after asking him about a crime that happened outside Dr. Jekyll's house. He says that a young girl had been killed by a man. The police believe lat the man may have committed many crimes, but they couldn't find any clues. Mr. Utterson shows great interest in the case, only to find out that the murderer is Dr Jekyll himself.
In fact, Dr Jekyll had invented a kind of medicine that turned him into Mr. Hyde, an evil (邪惡)man. He believed that all humans have an evil side. He wanted to see if he could move the evil part away from the good part.
In the book, the author shows human's dual(雙重的)nature. People can have both an evil side and a good side, just like Dr Jekyll: He looks kind on the outside, but he can also be a cold-blooded murderer on the inside. The author uses detailed comparisons and, descriptions to explain the way both sides of Dr Jekyll work Because of this, the novel turned out to be a successful one and has been spoken highly of by thousands of millions of readers since it was published. It has been made into over 120 stage and film versions(版本) so far.
