Think about how much reading you do everyday. When you look at it, you might find that reading is the work-related skill that you use most often! 1. After all, if we can read and comprehend textbooks, then aren’t we good readers? Maybe not. Given the time that reading consumes, it may be a skill that we can and should improve.

2. It means getting faster and more efficient at reading, while still understanding what you’re reading. Although you spend a good part of your day reading, have you ever thought about how you read? How do your eyes make sense of the shapes of the letters, and then put those letters together to form sentences that you can understand?

Reading is quite a complex skill. It was previously believed during reading, both eyes focus on particular letters.3. Scientists now believe that the eyes lock onto different letters at the same time, usually two characters apart. Your brain then fuses (融合) these images together to form a word. This happens very swiftly, as we look through pages of text！

Many people read at an average rate of 250 words per minute. 4.

Imagine, then, if you could double your rate to 500 words per minute. 5. You could then spend the saved time on other tasks, or take a few extra minutes to relax. Another important advantage of speed reading is that it allows one to better comprehend the overall structure of an argument. This leads to better “big picture” understanding, which can greatly benefit your work and career.

A.Recent research shows this isn’t the case.

B.Speed reading has a great many benefits.

C.You should practice to improve your reading speed.

D.But what does becoming a better reader involve?

E.You could read all of this content in half the time.

F.It’s also a skill that most of us take for granted by the time we reach age 12.

G.This means that an average page in a book or document takes 1-2 minutes to read.

“When your mother scolds you, you can look elsewhere and think about other things. Just ignore her words. But remember: such a tough attitude cannot be used often.”
These words are from a series of cartoons which outline skills for children to fight against their mothers. The images have created heated debate among Chinese netizens.
Regarded as “a book for children aged 6 to 12 who are always scolded by their parents”， the cartoons, drawn by two 10yearold Beijing girls, list over 20 skills which children can use to deal with their mothers' anger such as crying, pretending to be ashamed, fleeing into the toilet and pleasing her afterwards.
Each skill is described with vivid pictures and humorous notes. The creativity of the young girls has amazed netizens, the Yangtse Evening Post reported on Thursday.
According to one of the girls' mothers, her daughter once received a poor mark in an exam, and the mother blamed her and compared her performance with another classmate. The daughter's feelings led to her creating the cartoons.
The girl's father, who first posted the pictures on his Sohu Microblog on Monday, said he hopes parents pay close attention to the pictures, allow children to feel free to develop their own characteristics and try not to criticize them so often.
The father said the cartoons aren't finished yet; his daughter will continue with them when she has time.
“The cartoons, although an individual case, reflect a modern phenomenon and some of the problems within Chinese family education，” said Yu Qinfang, an expert on family education.
According to a survey of 104 children and their parents, Yu discovered that as many as 51.9 percent of primary school students hate being urged to do things by their mothers.
“Not giving children enough time and hurrying them to do things seems to be a very tiny detail within family life, but it is potentially a huge problem which can easily be ignored by parents. A mother's blame may lead to negative feelings within her child's heart，” Yu said. “Parents should learn to blame less and be more patient.”
1.What amazed Chinese netizens according to the text?
A．The girls' poor marks.
B．The girls' skills against their mothers.
C．The girls' creativity.
D．The girls' tough attitude to their mothers.
2.What do we know about the book?
A．It tells us how to control mothers' feelings.
B．It includes a number of vivid pictures and humorous notes.
C．It is intended for primary school teachers.
D．It is finished by children aged 6 to 12.

A．show off his daughter's cleverness
B．blame his daughter for drawing these cartoons
C．encourage his daughter to make greater progress
D．get other parents to draw a lesson from the cartoons
4.According to a survey, Yu Qinfang found that primary school pupils ________.

You want a smart phone， but just how smart do you want it？ How about one that can read your mind？ Well， that phone may well be on its way...
Justin Rattner， chief researcher at Intel， says that technology has developed to the point that “context-aware computing (情景感知计算)”， an idea that’s been around for twenty years， is becoming more of a reality.
That could lead to a phone that acts as a mind reader in your pocket. But rather than simply collect secrets about you， the device could do things with that information， such as predict what you might do next and make suggestions.
Rattner gave a few examples during his speech at Intel’s developer conference in San Francisco recently.
Among them is a software that Intel worked on with Fodor’s Travel， a traveling website. It learns what types of foods you like to eat and what types of places you like to visit， based on searches you type into the phone or places you searched using GPS (全球定位系统). The software makes similar recommendations when you visit a new city.
Tech companies are already working to predict what people want. Search engine Google， movie-rental service Netflix， and online radio service Pandora try to guess what people want even before they know they want it.
Putting those types of functions together with the other information that phones collect about people could pave the way for even more helpful mobile phones， Rattner said.
A challenge is training computers to look at data from “hard sensors (传感器)” (which measure place， movement， temperature and the like) and combining those findings with data from “soft sensors” (such as calendar appointments and Web browsing history).
For example， your phone could tell that you have just left school and seem to be on your way home—a location it might know from your address book. It could then tell you the best route around traffic.
Rattner added that researchers are even making steps toward the final goal—a computer understanding of thoughts.

You probably don’t know as much as you think you do. When put to the test, most people find they can’t explain the workings of everyday things they think they understand. Don’t believe me? Find an object you use daily (an ear phone, a toilet, a stereo speaker) and try to describe how it works. 　 1.　　 We call this phenomenon the illusion of explanatory depth(解释性深度错觉). It means you think you fully understand something that you actually don’t.
We see this every day in buzzwords (流行语). Though we often use them, their meanings are usually unclear. 　　 2.
Several years ago, I attended a meeting where the president spoke about global business practice in the coming year. During the talk, people around the room nodded in agreement. Afterwards, though, many of them discussed how to manage global business practice, none of the people who had nodded in agreement could exactly describe what it actually meant.
No matter what job you do, discovering your gaps in knowledge is necessary. An unknown gap means you might not fully understand a problem. 　　 3.
To discover the things you can’t explain, take a lesson from teachers. When you guide someone else, you have to fill the gaps in your own knowledge. But you don’t need to teach someone else. Explain concepts to yourself as you learn them. Get in the habit of self-teaching. Involve others in learning together. 　 4.　　 Ask them to explain difficult concepts, even if you think everyone understands them. Not only will this help you to work through new ideas, but it will occasionally uncover places where your friends don’t understand the explanations.
5.　　 They can help you have a better understanding of problems.
A. An active learner usually puts it into reality.
B. That can prevent you from solving the problem properly.
C. Your explanations can’t show your own knowledge gaps.
D. Help recognize the knowledge gaps of the people around you.
E. You’re likely to discover unexpected gaps in your knowledge.
F. They cover gaps in our knowledge, serving concepts we don’t fully understand.
G. When you do uncover these gaps, treat them as learning opportunities, not signs of weakness.
