For many people today, reading is no longer relaxation. It also means work. To keep up their work they must read letters, reports, trade publications, interoffice communications, not to mention newspapers and magazines: A neverending flood of words. In【C1】______a job or advancing in one, the ability to read and comprehend【C2】______can mean the difference between success and failure. Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are【C3】______readers. Most of us develop poor reading.【C4】______at an early age, and never get over them. The main deficiency【C5】______in the actual stuff of language itself— words. Taken individually, words have【C6】______meaning until they are strung together into phrases, sentences and paragraphs.【C7】______, whereas, the untrained reader does not read groups of words. He laboriously reads one word at a time, often regressing to【C8】______words or passages. Regression, the habit to look back over【C9】______you have just read, is a common bad habit in reading. Another habit which【C10】______down the speed of reading is vocalization — sounding each word either orally or mentally as【C11】______reads.
To get over these bed habits, some reading clinics use a device called an【C12】______, which moves a bar(or curtain)down the page at a predetermined speed. The bar is set at a slightly hater rate【C13】______the reader finds comfortable, in order to "stretch" him. The accelerator forces the reader to read fast,【C14】______wordbyword reading, regression and subvocalization, practically impossible. At first【C15】______is sacrificed for speed. But when a poor reader learns to read ideas and concepts, he will not only read faster,【C16】______his reading comprehension will improve. Many people have found【C17】______reading skill drastically improved after some mining.【C18】______Charles Au, a business manager, for instance, his reading rate was a reasonably good 163 words a minute【C19】______the training, now it is an excellent 1,273 words a minute. He is delighted that how he can【C20】______a lot more reading material in a short period of time.

A、scales
B、cuts
C、slows
D、measures
答案
C
解析
词义辨析题。由上面的几句话可以推断出此处还是需要一个含有否定意义的词汇,故slow down“减慢”为最佳答案;scale down“按比例减少”;cut down“削减”。
