You may wonder about the relationship between reading speed and reading comprehension. In the first place, it is of course【B4】to read rapidly but without【B5】comprehension. It is equally inefficient to read【B6】complete comprehension but at a very slow speed. You should aim【B7】a comfortable balance between the two. In the second place,【B8】you may think so at first, reading comprehension does not【B9】suffer from a rapid reading speed.
As you push yourself to read faster, you may find that you comprehend【B10】. Continued practice,【B11】, will improve your comprehension as【B12】as your speed. Instead of responding to【B13】words, you will be responding to meaningful unites of【B14】.
In the third place, there is no【B15】best reading speed. The good reader【B16】his speed to the material he is reading, and the kind of comprehension he【B17】. Generally, you can read a novel【B18】a social column in the campus newspaper faster than you can read a textbook.【B19】in a textbook, there is some material that can be read faster than other material.
Adjust your speed to the difficulty of the reading material and the degree of comprehension【B20】.

M: Fine. Where are you heading?
W: I'm on my way home from work.
M: I didn't know you had a job.
W: Yeah, [19] I work part-time at the library because I really have a lot of spare time this semester.
M: What did you do there?
W: Well, [20] I work in the information, giving suggestions to those looking for reference books. Sometimes when it really gets busy, I also help the librarians categorize the books. Have you got a job, Tom?
M: [21] I really want to, but I do have a hard time with the reading list and the courses I signed up for this term. Well, it seems that you work there every day.
W: Yeah, I think that's the trouble. There are times when I get pretty tired of answering different questions. But a job is a job.
M: I guess every job has its drawbacks. But today I do need some of your suggestions. I wonder if this book fits me.
W: Well, let me see. [22] I think the book has little to do with the topic of your paper. I mean you plan to write the present conditions of the Chinese minorities, but this book is about all the minorities in the world. I think it's too general.
M: Well, I'm afraid so. I think I have to look for another one. Thank you anyway.

Encoding, Schacter explains, is a special way of paying attention to an event that has a major impact on recalling it later. Failure to encode properly can create annoying situations. If you put your mobile phone in a pocket, for example, and don’t pay attention to what you did because you’re involved in a conversation, you’ll probably forget that the phone is in the jacket now hanging in you wardrobe (衣柜). “Your memory itself isn’t failing you,” says Schacter. “Rather, you didn’t give your memory system the information it needed.”
Lack of interest can also lead to absent-mindedness. “A man who can recite sports statistics from 30 years ago,” says Zelinski, “may not remember to drop a letter in the mailbox.” Women have slightly better memories than men, possibly because they pay more attention to their environment, and memory relies on just that.
Visual cues can help prevent absent-mindedness, says Schacter. “But be sure the cue is clear and available,” he cautions. If you want to remember to take a medication (药物) with lunch, put the pill bottle on the kitchen table—don’t leave it in the medicine chest and write yourself a note that you keep in a pocket.
Another common episode of absent-mindedness: walking into a room and wondering why you’re there. Most likely, you were thinking about something else. “Everyone does this from time to time,” says Zelinski. The best thing to do is to return to where you were before entering the room, and you’ll likely remember.
