How to Improve Your Reading
Learning how to read well in English might not be an easy task. 1 Reading well in English is useful for many reasons, not only for taking tests. If you want to improve your reading in English, the following are just for you!
Choose right reading materials(材料).
There are so many choices! There are textbooks and graded readers, but there are also a lot more books you can read. 2 Here is a good rule to follow: choose reading materials where you understand at least 80% of the content(内容).
Be intentional(意图明确的).
Being intentional means doing something on purpose with a reason in mind. With reading, you need to be intentional by setting a reading aim. Decide on a certain number of pages you want to read each day. 3 To make sure your daily practice gets done, spare some time and put it in your study plan!

Reading can both introduce you to new vocabulary(词汇) and teach you how to use it. Many words in English are often used together in a consistent(相互连贯的) way. Reading groups of words, or words that go together, will help you better understand how to use your new vocabulary.
Don’t try to understand everything.
As you’re practicing your reading, you need to accept the fact that you might not understand every single word, and that’s OK! Your brain can’t learn so many new things at one time. It’s more important to get the big picture of what you are reading. 5
A.Read word groups.
B.Don’t choose a book that is too easy or too difficult.
C.You could also be intentional with planning a time to read.
D.But it’s something you’ll have to do on your language learning journey.
E.And you can go back to check the new things you don’t understand later.
