How to become a better reader
If you wish to become a better reader, here are four important points to remember about speed of reading:
1. Knowing why you are reading-what you are reading to find out-will often help you to know whether to read quickly or slowly.
2. Some things should be read slowly throughout. Examples are directions(指导) for making or doing something, Maths problems, science and history books, which are full of important information. You must read such things slowly to remember each important idea.
3. Some things should be read quickly throughout. Examples are simple stories for enjoyment, letters from friends, news from local, or hometown, newspapers which tell what is happening to friends and neighbours.
4. In some of your readings, you must change your speed from fast to slow and from slow to fast as you go along. You need to read certain pages quickly and then slow down and do more careful readings when you come to important ideas which must be remembered.

At present，many students don’t do any reading after class, Here are some reasons． First，they have too much homework to do so they can’t have any time for reading．Second，they don't have the habit of reading．Third，they spend most of their spare time on the computers or on the
Internet．
However，reading is very useful to us．The more we read，the better we know about the world．Also，reading helps us learn to think．Moreover，reading will make 0ur life more colourful．
So I think we students should spend more time reading than playing and the school can give the students some advice on what to read．
