Reading is a good habit, but the problem is, there’s too much to read these days, and too little time to read every word of it. There are hundreds of skills (技巧) to help you read more in less time. Here are two skills that I think are very good.

Preview — if it’s long and hard. Previewing is very useful for getting a general idea of heavy reading like long magazine articles and science reports.

Here is how to preview.

●Read the first two paragraphs and the last two paragraphs (段落) carefully.

●Then read only the first sentence of the other paragraphs.

Previewing doesn’t give you all the details. It tells you not to spend time on things you don’t really want or need to read.

Skim — if it’s short and simple. Skimming is a good way to get a general idea of light reading, like popular magazines or the sports of your daily paper.

Here’s how to skim.

●Get your eyes to move fast. Sweep them across each line.

●Pick up only a few key words in each line.

Everybody skims differently. You and I may not pick up the same words when we skim the same piece, but perhaps we’ll get the same idea of what it’s all about.

Before an earthquake. It is necessary to prepare yourself and your family. All family members should know how to turn off gas，water and electricity and know useful telephone numbers(doctor，hospital，police，119，etc).Never put heavy things over beds.

During the earthquake. It’s important to for each of you to stay calm. If you are indoors ，quickly move to a safe place in the room such as under a strong desk or a strong table. It can protect yourself from falling things. Stay away from windows ，large mirrors，heavy things and so on. If you are cooking，turn off the gas.

If you are outdoors，move to an open area like a playground. Move away from buildings，bridges and trees. If you are driving ，stop the car as soon as possible .Stay in your car.

After an earthquake. Once the shaking stops ，do not run out of the building at once. It’s better to wait and leave when it is safe.
