51、perts think that it is possible for any normal adult English speaker to read 1000 words or more in a minute by special training. Yet most students read only about 300 words per minute. The following points might be helpful for foreign students who wish to improve their reading skills:1.Always read f
52、aster than it is comfortable. The faster your normal rate of reading becomes， the better your understanding will be.2.While reading， do not allow yourself to regress(倒退)， but keep reading ahead in every sentence， even when you come across a new word.

54、 nouns， pronouns and verbs and just see the rest of the words in the sentences.Since much of the learning experience of foreign students may have been for the purpose of passing examinations，it is quite possible that they put off studying until late in the term.
