For many people today, reading is no longer relaxation. To keep up their work they must read letters, reports, trade publications, interoffice communications,【C1】______to mention newspapers and magazines: a never-ending flood of words. In getting a job or advancing in one, the ability to read and comprehend quickly can mean the difference between success and failure.
Yet the【C2】______fact is that most of us are poor readers.【C3】______of us develop poor reading habits at an early age, and never get【C4】______them. The main deficiency【C5】______in the actual stuff of language itself— words. Taken individually, words have little meaning【C6】______they are strung together into phrases, sentences and paragraphs.【C7】______. the untrained reader does not read groups of words. He laboriously reads one word at a time, often regressing to words or passages. Regression, the tendency to look back over【C8】______you have just read, is a common bad habit in reading. 【C9】______habit which slows down the speed of reading is vocalization — sounding each word either orally【C10】______mentally as one reads.
To【C11】______these bad habits, some reading clinics use a(n)【C12】______called an accelerator, which moves a bar (or curtain) down the page at a predetermined speed. The bar is set at slightly【C13】______rate than the reader finds comfortable, in order to "stretch" him. The accelerator forces the reader to read fast,【C14】______word-by-word reading, regression and sub-vocalization【C15】______impossible. At first comprehension is sacrificed for speed. But when you learn to read ideas and concepts, you will not only read faster,【C16】______your comprehension will improve.
Many people have found their reading skill drastically improved after some training.【C17】______Charlie Au, a business manager, for instance. His reading rate was a(n)【C18】______good 172 words a minute【C19】______the training; now it is an excellent 1,378 words a minute. He is【C20】______that he can get through a lot more reading material in a short period of time.
【C13】
选项
A、longer
B、shorter
C、slower
D、faster
答案
D
解析
语义衔接题。由“stretch”him和下句的forces the reader to read fast不难看出,本空应填[D]faster。此处是说,把阅读条的速度设定得比阅读者惯常的速度稍微快些,这样能使他感到“紧绷”。
