快速閱讀是一種積極的、創(chuàng)造性的學(xué)習(xí)、理解和記憶過程,是讀者從字里行間高效率地吸收有用信息的思維方法?,F(xiàn)在,世界進入了經(jīng)濟全球化、科學(xué)技術(shù)一體化時代,人類所創(chuàng)造的知識和提供的信息量正以幾何級數(shù)增長。所以,一個人如果不能高速度地獲取人類創(chuàng)造的新知識、新成果,并以此來充實自己,勢必會跟不上時代的步伐。對于大多數(shù)學(xué)生來說,學(xué)習(xí)英語的主要目的是以它為工具,通過閱讀幫助自己搞好專業(yè)學(xué)習(xí)、研究和工作。而培養(yǎng)快速閱讀能力,能使學(xué)生高效地閱讀各種文章,從而迅速地、充分地從材料中獲取有用信息。

章節(jié)摘錄
The research is an "important milestone," says animal-math researcher CharlesGallistel of Rutgers University in Piscataway, N.J., because it sheds light on howthe ability to do math developed. Monkeys arent the only nonhuman animals with math skills. Previousexperiments have shown that rats, pigeons, and other creatures also have some kindsof abilities to do rough calculations, says Gallistel. In fact, his research suggeststhat pigeons can even do a form of subtraction. Brannon says she wanted to come up with a math test that would work for bothadult humans and monkeys. Previous experiments were good at testing monkeys,but they didnt work as well for people. In one such experiment, for example, Harvard University researchers put somelemons behind a screen as a monkey watched. Then, as the monkey continued toobserve, they put a second group of lemons behind the screen. When the researcherslifted the screen, monkeys saw either the correct sum of the two groups of lemons oran incorrect sum. (To reveal incorrect sums, the researchers added lemons when themonkeys werent looking.) When the sum was incorrect, the monkeys seemed surprised: They staredlonger at the lemons, suggesting they were expecting a different answer. Anexperiment such as this is a good way to test toddlers math skills, but not the mosteffective way to measure such skills in adults.
