If you want to become a better reader, what should you know about speed of reading
Some people read very rapidly, while others read very slowly. But which one is better
The rapid reader may be a good reader when he reads a storybook for fun. But he may not be able to slow down enough to read directions carefully. He may read so rapidly that he does not take time to understand fully the ideas and information which are important to remember.
The slow reader may be a good reader when he reads directions for making something. But he may spend too much time in reading a simple story which is meant to be enjoyed but is not important enough to be remembered.
So, you see, either a rapid reader or a slow reader is not really a good one. If you wish to become a better reader, here are four important things to remember about speed of reading.
1. Knowing why you are reading will often help you to know whether to read rapidly or slowly.
2. Some things should be read slowly throughout. Examples are directions for making or doing something, science and history books, and Maths problems. You must read such things slowly or remember each important step and understand each important idea.
3.Some things should be read rapidly throughout. Examples are simple stories for enjoyment, letters from friends and bits of news from hometown papers.
4. In some of your reading, you must change your speed from fast to slow and slow to fast, as you go along. You will need to read certain pages rapidly and then slow down and do more careful reading when you come to important ideas.
( ) 1. What should be read rapidly
A. Directions for making something.
B. Maths problems.
C. Science and history books.
D. Storybooks, newspapers, personal letters, etc.

六、 阅读与回答问题（No more than 6 words ）
Over just a few days in January, millions of people across China were racking their brains (绞尽脑汁). They were taking part live-streaming (直播) quiz shows on several apps. Some of these apps include Chongdingdahui, Huajiao Zhibo , Xigua Shipin and Douyin.
Different from TV quiz shows like Happy Dictionary (《开心辞典》) and Who’s Still Standing (《一站到底》), anyone with a smartphone or tablet can participate (参加) in the live-streaming shows every day, communicating with other players at the same time.
The shows have hosts to present the questions. While the participants give their answers, they help to liven up the show by telling jokes or giving some background for the question. Each online player has 10 seconds to answer a question, with each show taking around 20 to 30 minutes.
Prizes ranging (在……范围内变动) between 100,000 yuan to 5 million yuan are being offered, with the winners sharing the prize money at the end. Depending on the total amount of prize money and the number of winners, players can win prizes as small as 1 yuan and as high as more than 40,000 yuan.
The questions are chosen from a wide range of topics, including literature (文学), geography, mathematics and biology, among many others. For example, players may be asked how many legs crabs have, or what Australia’s national flower is.
To draw new users, the apps offer “redo cards (复活卡)” to new players, as well as to those who have invited new players to join. These cards allow players who give wrong answers an extra chance to compete on the show.
1．How can we take part in the live-streaming quiz shows,
2．How many live-streaming (直播) quiz shows are mentioned in this article
3．How much time does a player have to answer each question
4．Where are the questions chosen from

Over just a few days in January, millions of people across China were racking their brains (绞尽脑汁). They were taking part live-streaming (直播) quiz shows on several apps. Some of these apps include Chongdingdahui, Huajiao Zhibo , Xigua Shipin and Douyin.
Different from TV quiz shows like Happy Dictionary (《开心辞典》) and Who’s Still Standing (《一站到底》), anyone with a smartphone or tablet can participate (参加) in the live-streaming shows every day, communicating with other players at the same time.
The shows have hosts to present the questions. While the participants give their answers, they help to liven up the show by telling jokes or giving some background for the question. Each online player has 10 seconds to answer a question, with each show taking around 20 to 30 minutes.
Prizes ranging (在……范围内变动) between 100,000 yuan to 5 million yuan are being offered, with the winners sharing the prize money at the end. Depending on the total amount of prize money and the number of winners, players can win prizes as small as 1 yuan and as high as more than 40,000 yuan.
The questions are chosen from a wide range of topics, including literature (文学), geography, mathematics and biology, among many others. For example, players may be asked how many legs crabs have, or what Australia’s national flower is.
To draw new users, the apps offer “redo cards (复活卡)” to new players, as well as to those who have invited new players to join. These cards allow players who give wrong answers an extra chance to compete on the show.
