語(yǔ)篇導(dǎo)讀很多同學(xué)非?？释嗫袋c(diǎn)書來(lái)拓寬自己的知識(shí)面，但是拿起書本后卻發(fā)現(xiàn)，不知怎么回事，無(wú)論怎么看都看不進(jìn)去，而且就算逼著自己去看，也是看一點(diǎn)忘一點(diǎn)，基本就是在那認(rèn)字而已。那么，我們應(yīng)該如何提高自己的閱讀效率呢？

1.Define your purpose for reading

Before you start reading， ask yourself why you are reading this book. Most of people read for two main reasons—pleasure or knowledge.

Being specific and clear about your reading purpose not only helps you to eliminate books that you don？蒺t need to read， but also reminds you why reading the book is important to you as you are reading it. This motivates you to keep reading and completing the book faster.

2.Read only what you are attracted to

Whether you are reading fictions or nonfictions， it？蒺s important to enjoy what you read. Your friends may recommend books that they love， but those books might not be the ones you enjoy.

3.Give up books that you don？蒺t enjoy

You may have selected books that are aligned with your purpose. You may have selected books that you are attracted to. But as you are reading them， there may still be some books that you won？蒺t enjoy reading.

Whenever you realize that you aren？蒺t enjoying the book you are reading， give it up. Remember reading shouldn？蒺t be a chore.

4.Set a reading goal

Having a reading goal helps you figure out how much reading you need to do in a week or even a day.

5.Give yourself a deadline to complete each book

Before you read each book， ask yourself when you need to complete this book by.

When you don？蒺t set a deadline to complete your book， there isn？蒺t a sense of urgency. And when something isn？蒺t urgent， you tend to procrastinate.

典句賞析

1.Being specific and clear about your reading purpose not only helps you to eliminate books that you don？蒺t need to read， but also reminds you why reading the book is important to you as you are reading it.確定并清楚自己的閱讀目標(biāo)不僅能幫你排除不需要讀的書，也能在你閱讀的時(shí)候提醒你閱讀這本書的重要性。

not only...but also...是一個(gè)并列連詞，意為“不僅……而且……”。它是英語(yǔ)中比較常見(jiàn)的一個(gè)關(guān)聯(lián)詞組，用于連接兩個(gè)表示并列關(guān)系的句子成分，著重強(qiáng)調(diào)后者，其中的also有時(shí)可以省略。not only...but also...在連接主語(yǔ)時(shí)，利用“就近原則”來(lái)判斷謂語(yǔ)的單復(fù)數(shù)，即根據(jù)but also后所跟的主語(yǔ)的單復(fù)數(shù)來(lái)決定謂語(yǔ)的單復(fù)數(shù)。

【即時(shí)嘗試】鮮艷的顏色不但使人看了高興，也會(huì)使人更加活潑。

2.Whenever you realize that you aren？蒺t enjoying the book you are reading， give it up.不管什么時(shí)候你發(fā)現(xiàn)不喜歡讀的那本書，那就不讀了。

“that you aren？蒺t enjoying the book you are reading”是that引導(dǎo)的賓語(yǔ)從句，作動(dòng)詞realize的賓語(yǔ)。you are reading是the book的限制性定語(yǔ)從句，關(guān)系代詞that或者which被省略了。give up是“動(dòng)詞+副詞”構(gòu)成的固定詞組，意為“放棄”或“停止”。當(dāng)give up后接代詞作賓語(yǔ)時(shí)，該代詞放在這兩個(gè)單詞的中間。例如：

I？蒺m afraid we can？蒺t give them up， poor dogs.恐怕我們不能放棄他們，可憐的狗狗們。

【即時(shí)嘗試】這是我到這里后看的第一場(chǎng)電影。

1.明確你的閱讀目標(biāo)

在閱讀之前問(wèn)問(wèn)自己為何要讀這本書。大部分的人讀書有兩個(gè)原因——興趣或者知識(shí)。

確定并清楚自己的閱讀目標(biāo)不僅能幫你排除不需要讀的書，也能在你閱讀的時(shí)候提醒你閱讀這本書的重要性。這能促使你一直閱讀，并且能更快地讀完。

2.只讀你感興趣的書

不管是小說(shuō)類還是非小說(shuō)類，重要的是你喜歡你所讀的書。你朋友可能推薦他們喜歡讀的書，但是那些書可能并不是你所喜歡讀的。

3.不讀你不喜歡讀的書

也許選書的時(shí)候你是帶著一定的目的性，也許你是因?yàn)楸贿@些書吸引了才選的。但是當(dāng)你閱讀的時(shí)候，有些書可能并不是你喜歡讀的。

不管什么時(shí)候你發(fā)現(xiàn)不喜歡讀的那本書，那就不讀了。記住，閱讀不應(yīng)該是一件討厭的工作。

4.設(shè)定一個(gè)閱讀目標(biāo)

有閱讀目標(biāo)能幫你弄清楚一周或一天需要閱讀多少。

5.給每一本書設(shè)定一個(gè)截止日期

在你閱讀每一本書之前，問(wèn)問(wèn)自己你需要什么時(shí)候讀完這本書。

當(dāng)你沒(méi)有設(shè)定一個(gè)讀完書的截止日期的時(shí)候，就會(huì)沒(méi)有緊迫感。當(dāng)事情不緊迫了，你就會(huì)拖延。
