Reading is a very important skill. （1）Reading is also a good way to improve your English.
    However，to make sure what you read isn't too difficult，it's important to know what makes texts difficult and how you can improve your understanding of them.Here are some suggestions.
    *Understand the purpose of your reading. （2）你閱讀的方法取決于你閱讀的目的。 The kind of reading you do in class or for your homework is different from how you read a novel for pleasure in the summer holidays.
    *Find background information.Find something out about the topic you are going to read.The more background information you have，the easier it'll be to understand the text.
    *Increase your vocabulary. （3）你擁有的詞匯越多，你就閱讀得越快。
    *Use your dictionary correctly. （4）A common mistake is to read everything very slowly and carefully. Looking up each unknown word.Sometimes this is necessary，for example，when reading exam questions.However，It takes a long time and can be very boring；it can even make understanding more difficult!
    If you've followed the above advice and still can't understand a text，then it's simply too hard for you.Stop reading and ask someone to help you.No one wants to give up. （5）However，you will just be wasting your time if you continue to work at a text that's beyond you.
