Annie, I'm a little nervous. I have to finish reading a book and give a report next Monday.
安妮,我有點(diǎn)兒緊張。我必須讀完一本書,下周一要交份報告。
That doesn't sound too bad.
聽起來不是太糟糕啊。
But I'm a very slow reader.
但是我是一個閱讀速度非常慢的人。
Just read quickly to get the main ideas at first. Don't read word by word, read word groups.
首先只需要很快的閱讀,了解大致意思就可以了。不要一個字一個字地讀,要按意群讀。
But I don't understand many of the words. I have to use a dictionary.
但是我有很多的單詞不明白。我不得不查字典。
Try to guess a word's meaning by reading the sentences before and after it. You probably understand more than you think.
試著根據(jù)前后的句子去猜猜單詞的意思。很可能你理解的比你想象的要多。
That sounds difficult!
聽上去有點(diǎn)兒難啊!
Well, be patient. It takes time. You can become better by reading something you enjoy every day. The more you read, the faster you'll be.
嗯,耐心點(diǎn)。這得慢慢來。通過每天閱讀一些你喜歡的內(nèi)容,情況會變得更好。讀得越多,你就會讀得越快。
