大多數學生不懂得如何研讀。他們通常是把教材翻到要求閱讀的書頁，便開始閱讀。但是過不了多長時間，他們就走神了。或者他們一邊閱讀，一邊在書頁上做記號，把所有似乎重要的地方都劃上下劃線。研讀不同于一般閱讀。研讀要求你記得更多，而且在大多數情況下，你所讀過的內容將來都會考到。下面介紹一個如何進行研讀的四步閱讀法，它有助于提高理解力，并且讓你更好地記住讀過的內容。HowtoStudyRead如何研讀

Moststudentsdon'tknowhowtostudyread.Theyusuallyopentheirtextbookstotheassignedpageandstartreading.Butbeforelong,theirmindshavewanderedoffsomewhere.Ortheyreadandmarkupthepagesbyunderliningeverythingthatseemsimportant.Studyreadingisdifferentfromregularreading.Youareexpectedtoremembermore,andinmostcases,willbetestedonwhatyouread.Hereisafour-stepmethodforstudyreadingthatcanhelpimprovecomprehensionandpromote

retentionofwhatisread.1Text第一步：準備閱讀

做好閱讀的準備非常重要。如果你思想上還沒有做好準備，就倉促地開始閱讀指定的章節，就會浪費掉很多時間。因為你的思考速度可能比閱讀速度快，假如你沒有對要讀的章節做好準備，你就很容易走神。最明智的做法是把要讀的這一章從頭至尾略讀一遍。把題目讀懂。讀讀開頭的一兩段，看看該章是講什么的。然后閱讀標題和副標題。接著讀一下總結或最后幾段。這樣做也許沒有多大意義，但是你的腦子就會開始清除各種雜念。你會開始思考該章的內容。如果該章的末尾有思考題，也要讀一讀。對你正在閱讀的內容提出問題有助于你集中注意力，并使你明確閱讀目的。HowtoStudyRead如何研讀StepOne:PreparetoReadIt'simportanttoprepareyourselftoread.Muchtimecanbelostwhenyoutrytoplunkyourselfintoreadinganassignedchapterwhenyourmindisn'tready.Becauseyoucanthinkfasterthanyoucanread,yourmindcaneasilygointodaydreamsorotherthoughtsifyouaren'treadytoreadanassignment.Thewisestthingtodoistoskimoverthechaptertoberead.Letthetitlesinkin.Readanopeningparagraphortwotoseewhatthechapterisabout.Thenreadtheheadingsandsubheadings.Nextreadthesummaryorthelastcoupleofparagraphs.Itmaynotmakealotofsense,butyourmindwillbegintoclearoutotherthoughts.You'llbegintothinkaboutthecontentofthechapter.Iftherearestudyquestionsattheendofthechapter,readthose.Havingquestionsaboutwhatyouarereadinghelpsconcentrationandgivesyouapurposeforreading.2Text第二步：閱讀

把該章略讀一遍后，你已做好了閱讀準備。如果你對該章內容提不出問題，就編出幾個來，可以把該章的題目和標題變成問題。倘若你讀的這一章很長，那么每次不要讀得太多。最好是從一個標題讀到下一個標題。然后停下來，按照下面要講到的第三步進行。如果該章沒有標題，讀上大約兩頁，然后停下來，再按下面的第三步去做。HowtoStudyRead如何研讀StepTwo:ReadAfteryou'velookedoverthechapter,youarereadytoread.Ifyoudon'thaveanyquestionsaboutthecontentofthechapter,makesomeup.Youcandothisbyturningthetitleandheadingsintoquestions.Ifyouarereadingalongchapter,don'ttrytoreadtoomuchat

once.It'sbetterifyoureadfromoneheadingtothenext.ThenstopandfollowStepThreebelow.Iftherearenoheadingsinthechapter,readabouttwopages;thenstopandfollowStepThreebelow.3Text第三步：檢驗讀過的內容

只閱讀短短的幾段，然后停一停，通過這種方式，你就更有可能將注意力集中到該章節的內容上。現在這第三步是檢驗你讀過的內容。把教材放到一邊，用自己的話記一些閱讀筆記，用幾個關鍵詞或詞組寫下你剛剛讀過的內容要點。研究表明，這樣做有助于理解和記憶，以便更好地應對將來的考試。如果你不相信做閱讀筆記有好處，至少要試著默誦剛剛讀過的要點。當你對讀過的東西真正理解，感到滿意時，就接著從下一個標題往下閱讀直到再下一個標題，并不時地停下來做筆記或者把讀過的內容再溫習一遍。照著這個步驟做，直到把該章讀完。這樣閱讀，看起來速度也許是慢了，但是在使用這一閱讀技巧的過程中，你會發現實際上速度更快了，因為你不會因為注意力不集中或者不得不重讀剛讀過的內容而浪費時間。HowtoStudyRead如何研讀StepThree:ExamineWhatYouReadByreadingonlyshortpassagesandthenstopping,youstandabetterchanceofconcentratingonthechapter'scontent.Thethirdstepisnowtoexaminewhatyouread.Putthetextbookaside,andwritesomenotesinyourownwords.Inafewkeywordsorphrases,writedownthemajorpointsyoujustread.Researchshowsthatdoingthisaidscomprehensionandretentionforfuturetests.Ifyoudon'tbelieveintakingreadingnotes,atleasttrytorecitetoyourselfthekeypointsyoujustread.Whenyouaresatisfiedyouunderstandwhatyouread,thenreadfromthenextheadingtothenext,stoppingeveryonceinawhiletotakenotesorgooverwhatyouread.Followthisstepuntilyouarefinishedwiththechapter.Thoughthismayseemslow,asyoupracticethisstudyreadingtechnique,you'lldiscoverit'sreallyfasterbecauseyoudon'twastetimebylosingconcentrationorhavingtorereadwhatyou''veread.4Text第四步：有計劃地復習

這最后一步并不是閱讀完畢之后馬上進行的，但是它對記住讀過的內容至關重要，而且關系到你考試中會得及格還是優秀。你應該制定一個明確的計劃，每周復習閱讀筆記。隨著你課程學習的不斷深入，要學的東西也就越來越多，而你不可能把所有的東西全都記住。事實上，如果我們做不到每周都復習一下所學內容，我們閱讀過的百分之八十以上的東西都有可能忘掉。所以要有每周復習一次的計劃。把筆記過一遍。如果你在復習時發現筆記無法理解，就要再回到讀過的那一章，再讀一下不清楚的地方。（重要的是，要在筆記中寫明章節標題和要點出處的頁碼，這樣，你在復習的時候就能很快找到要復習的內容。）HowtoStudyRead如何研讀StepFour:PlantoReviewThislaststepdoesnottakeplaceimmediatelyafteryouread,butit'sveryimportantforrememberingwhatyoureadandcanmeanthedifferencebetweenaCandanAonatest.Youshouldmakeadefiniteplantoreviewyourreadingnoteseveryweek.Asyoumovethroughacourse,youhavemoreandmoretolearn.Youcan'trememberitall.Infact,unlesswerevieweveryweekwhathasbeenstudiedbefore,wecanforgetover80percentofwhatweread.Soplantoreviewonceaweek.Gooveryournotes.Iftheydon'tmakesensewhenyoureview,gobacktothechapterandrereadwhatisn'tclear.(It''simportanttowritechaptertitlesandpagereferencestokeypointsinyournotessoyoucanfindthingsquicklywhenyoureview).5Text

研究表明，要取得好成績，并不在于你學習時間的長短，而在于學習效果如何，能否經常學習。試一試這四步閱讀法，你的成績就會節節上升。HowtoStudyRead如何研讀Researchshowsit'snotsomuchhowlongyoustudythatgetsgoodgrades,buthowwellandhowoftenyoustudy.Trythisfour-stepmethod(PREP)andwatchthosegradesgoup.6LanguagePointsoftheText1.Moststudentsdon'tknowhowtostudyread.(Para.1)read:作名詞表示anactofreading，如：Ihavealongreadinthetrain.另請注意
