[单项选择]Every day we read a lot of books, from our textbooks to some magazines or romantic stories. Have you ever thought about the speed or the rate of reading
Some people read very rapidly; others read very slowly. A rapid reader may say, "I read a long story in one evening." However someone who reads slowly perhaps say, "I read slowly, but carefully. And I am familiar with every detail (细节)." So who do you think is the better reader The slow reader or the rapid reader
In my opinion, the key question is not the speed. That is to say, we cannot draw a conclusion that the rapid reader is the good reader, or the slow reader is good. It depends on what we are reading and what’s our purpose of reading. If you are a rapid reader, you may be a good reader when you read a story book for fun, and it will not take you too much time. But when you have to read a textbook or a research report, you’d better slow your speed and read it word by word to avoid making any possible mistake. On the oth
A. The slow reader. B. The rapid reader. C. It is not mentioned. D. It all depends.
