As the author of the book, the renowned Professor Walter Peterkin of Columbia University in the United States, said: "This book is primarily written for adults who are always busy and read only a few articles throughout the year, yet feel dissatisfied with their lack of reading." Although we are all taught how to read from a young age, not everyone truly knows how to read. Based on different types of reading materials, the author explains some effective reading strategies and techniques. For example:
· Read through the material as a whole, not just parts; read long sentences, not just words. First grasp the broad meaning, and if necessary, go back to read it in detail.
· Reading is a method, so it should follow learning principles, which is the first principle of these principles.
· Rapid and effective reading means grasping the meaning of written symbols in a quick and confident manner. When understanding these meanings, you must first develop the habit of connecting them to printed symbols. To do this, you must know all the important meanings of a known symbol in different contexts.
· The richer your vocabulary, the stronger your reading ability. However, a rich vocabulary does not just mean knowing many words; you must also understand the various meanings of these words in specific contexts.
· Only read materials that have a significant impact on your most urgent tasks in daily work. Do not read everything at once; learn to find information in excellent books, magazines, and reference materials.
