For many people today, reading is no longer relaxation. To keep up their work they must read letters, reports, trade publications, interoffice communications, not to mention newspapers and magazines: a never-ending 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 para-graphs.【C7】______, however, 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 tendency 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 overcome these bad 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 faster rate【C13】______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, practically impossible. At first【C15】______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【C17】______reading skill drastically improved after some training.【C18】______Charlce Au, a business manager, for instance, his reading rate was a reasonably good 172 words a minute【C19】______the training, now it is an excellent 1,378 words a minute. He is delighted that how he can【C20】______a lot more reading material in a short period of time.
【C10】
选项
A、scales
B、cuts
C、slows
D、measures
答案
C
解析
scale down"按比例减少”;cut down"削减”,此两项不合题意。measure不能与down搭配。只有slow与down搭配的意思为“放慢”,在此合适。
