And from which we can infer that reading takes up an extremely important position among such skills as listening, speaking,reading and writing. Reading is not only important for passing College English Test 4 and 6, but also important f
7、or adapting the present society efficiently. As we all know, we are in a society full of knowledge explosion, we have to get most of useful information with least time. However, information is obtained from reading. So it is high time that we improved our reading comprehension. This article is going
8、 to talk about four aspects we should pay great attention to on the purpose of improving our reading comprehension skill.KEY WORDSreading comprehension ; improvement; ability; prediction1. IntroductionReading is a thinking process. We need to be able to read actively and thoughtfully so that we can
9、select the main idea of a passage, understand a principle, and follow a sequence of events, an argument, or a line of reasoning. Further more, in order to get the main points, we should select relevant details to support the main idea, and recognize the relationship of ideas in the passage. In addit
10、ion, we can also get something useful from the materials we have read. From what I have presented, it is not difficult to see that how important the role of reading plays in our daily life.1. Four major problems in College English ReadingAs a student, reading is such a thing that we cant be more fam
11、iliar, especially for college student as English majors. We have just finished an initial test in our career of learning EnglishCET4, in which college reading comprehension is one of the crucial parts. It commands that we should accomplish 3 to 4 passages within 25 minutes. There are 4 major problem
12、s in my reading comprehension and maybe in most college students.1.1 Strange words are always being the obstacle when we are reading.Words and expressions which the student does not know obviously present a problem. Some college students are so disturbed by unfamiliar vocabulary that their comprehen
13、sion of the whole passage suffers. Once seeing them, we have no mood in reading any more. In this case, its hard for us to catch the main idea.1.2 Tight time constraints to our ability to answer.In examination, I always read the paragraph word by word in order to know the meaning of each word. When
14、I get the main point, there is no time for me to answer the question. “Given enough time, I can get all the correct answers.” Which is often said by us students presents it vividly.1.3 Useful information cannot be got within a limited time.Almost all of us have the hobbit of reading all the passages
15、 sentence by sentence. Not until having comprehended completely do we start to see and do the exercises behind.1.4 Looking back to the paragraphs or sentences is a commonplace.The average college student reading at 250 words per minute regress or rereads about 20 times per page. Rereading words and
16、phrases is a habit which will slow our reading speed down to a snails space. Maybe it because of low concentration or maybe its complicated structure or maybe it is just a bad habit, etc.2. Ways of improving College English ComprehensionAs we all know, vocabulary to learning is what brick to buildin
17、g house. Learning English is not an exception of this rule. Strange words stop us from reading efficiently and do bad effect on our passion to go on reading. On the contrast, wealthy vocabulary is the basis of listening clearly, speaking fluently and writing smoothly. A bound of scientific investiga
18、tions prove that the lack of vocabulary is the key cause of difficulty in English studying. In a word, vocabulary plays an important role in college reading comprehension. It relates directly to the reading speed and the reading accuracy. There are many ways of enlarging it. Interests, associations
19、and calcifications are good choices. Perhaps the most impressive reason for vocabulary development is that a good vocabulary and success are synonymous.1).A good vocabulary can be an economic advantage. An institution for testing peoples attitudes, the Human Engineering Laboratory, found that a good
20、 vocabulary is the only trait common to successful people. The Lab has found that the highest scores on vocabulary tests have been made by people getting the highest pay.2). A good vocabulary also means academic success. There is a direct link between verbal ability and scores on an intelligence or
21、achievement test. It may be unfair for someones intelligence to be judged on the basis of a verbal test. But students are still being judged this way. Many teachers think that the results of an IQ test and a vocabulary test will be about the same. And both predict success. According to A Guide Book
22、for the Teaching of Reading, in a vocabulary test with a score of 100, students who score 65-70 and up will likely be successful in college. Those scoring from 35 to 70 will probably have moderate success and will complete college. Those in the lowest third will probably be ones who are constantly i
23、n trouble academically, or who leave the campus before receiving a degree. The same book also notes, however, that if “these low-scoring students apply themselves to improving their vocabulary, they will have less and less trouble in their college work.2.2 Improving Reading RateAfter solving the mos
24、t basic and the hardest problem, there comes another questionthe reading speed or the reading rate, which is measured in words per minute (WPM). It is the main standard of ones reading level. Both the teaching outline for English majors and nonEnglish majors make specific requirements on reading spe
25、ed for students in every degree. For example, CET4 requires students reading at the speed of 80 to 100 WPM, reaching the accuracy of 70%. So, when training the comprehension and the accuracy of reading, we should also take great notice of improving our reading speed. Just as I have said, it is impor
26、tant to exert all our abilities during a limited time. Some people think that reading at a high speed affects the accuracy of the comprehension for the text. Actually, it is a misunderstanding caused by the traditional reading teaching schemes, which valued the reading accuracy overly and ignore the
27、 improvement of reading speed. The accomplishment of a reading task within an appropriate time frame and with appropriate comprehension, which means reading efficiency, is what we are perusing now. The fast readers are the people who can read in such a level. The improvement of reading speed is not
28、an easy thing to do. As the proverb says: “practice makes perfect”, critical trainings under scientific instructions are necessary.Speed reading without adequate or appropriate comprehension is not what we want. Neither do taking ten hours to read a twenty page chapter. To get the useful information
29、 and the main idea of the passage with least time, it is necessary to develop several techniques that will help with comprehension and read faster.1). Reading the passage according to your purpose. If you want to seize the main idea of the passage, you can read several sentences at the beginning or
30、at the end of the article. If you are looking for the answers of some specific questions, you can first scanning the text and find the special lines relating to your questions and then read them intensively, etc. 2). Reading different materials with suitable ways. Do you read the newspaper in the sa
31、me way and the same speed that you read a text book? Do you read poetry in the same way and at the same speed that you read an article in a magazine? If you say yes, unfortunately, that means you are a poor reader. The ability to adjust the reading rate and methods to suit the type of material to be read and the purpose for reading or reading flexibility is very important. Not only for the improvement of reading speed, but also for the improvement of reading skills.
