幫助你在一天內(nèi)讀完整本書的4個技巧

We’ve all been there; we’ve all put off getting required reading done until the day before. Maybe you’re in a book club, or you’re trying to get an entire book read for school the night before. It can be discouraging when you’re flipping through pages trying to figure out how you’re going to get it all done and not forget anything. Don’t think you can’t power through it though: There’s a way you can read an entire book in one day without forgetting everything. Take a look at these tips so you can absorb all that information. Let’s buckle down and get started!

我們都經(jīng)歷過;我們都把必讀書推遲到前一天。也許你在一個讀書俱樂部，或者你想在前一天晚上為學(xué)校讀一整本書。當(dāng)你翻看一頁又一頁地想要弄清楚怎樣才能把事情做完而又不忘記任何事情時，你可能會感到沮喪。不要認(rèn)為你不能堅持下去:有一種方法可以讓你在一天內(nèi)讀完一整本書而不會忘記所有的事情?？纯催@些建議，這樣你就能吸收所有的信息。讓我們?nèi)σ愿伴_始吧!

1. Be an active reader

做一個積極的讀者

You’ll have a higher chance of remembering the information if you write down a list of questions before you begin reading. You’ll be able to answer the questions as you go and be able to look back and give yourself a refresher if you need it. Even when you’ve finished the book, you can save the answered questions if you ever find that you’ve forgotten some information down the road.

如果你在開始閱讀之前寫下一個問題清單，你將有更高的機會記住信息。你可以一邊走一邊回答問題，如果需要的話，你還可以回顧過去，讓自己重新振作起來。即使你已經(jīng)讀完了這本書，如果你在閱讀過程中忘記了一些信息，你也可以把問題保存起來。

2. Break up your reading

打斷你的閱讀

You may or may not know this, but when you focus on a single task for an extended period of time, you experience something called ego depletion. This will cause your mental energy, self-control, and willpower to essentially wipe out. If you don’t allow yourself to take breaks, your motivation will diminish, which means the probability of finishing that book in a day is low. You have to be able to mix things up.

你可能知道，也可能不知道，但當(dāng)你長時間專注于一項任務(wù)時，你會經(jīng)歷一種自我損耗的過程。這將導(dǎo)致你的精神能量、自我控制和意志力從根本上消失。如果你不讓自己休息一下，你的動力就會減弱，這意味著在一天內(nèi)完成那本書的可能性很低。你可能會把事情搞混。

Set yourself a timer and read for 20 minutes, then take a break and do something that’ll give you some energy for 5-10 minutes. You can go for a walk, listen to music and dance around, do daily exercises, etc. Do whatever you have to do, but make sure it’s going to keep you active so that when you do come back to reading, you feel refreshed.

給自己設(shè)置一個計時器，閱讀20分鐘，然后休息一下，做一些能給你5-10分鐘能量的事情。你可以去散步，聽音樂，跳舞，做日常鍛煉等等。做任何你必須做的事，但要確保它能讓你保持活躍，這樣當(dāng)你重新開始閱讀時，你會感到神清氣爽。

Another recommendation is instead of taking breaks, break your book up into sections. Use bookmarks to separate your book into four sections of reading. When you’ve reached your bookmark, give yourself a reward with your favorite snack, video games, or an episode of a show you just can’t seem to stop yourself from watching.

另一個建議是不要休息，把你的書分成幾部分。使用書簽把你的書分成四部分閱讀。當(dāng)你拿到書簽的時候，給自己一些獎勵，比如你最喜歡的零食、電子游戲，或者是一集讓你愛不釋手的電視劇。

3. Take notes to refresh yourself later

做些筆記，讓自己稍后恢復(fù)精神

You shouldn’t just be active during your breaks; staying active while reading can keep you focused as well. If you don’t like writing things down, pull out a highlighter and highlight some points throughout so you can go back later and break them up to better retain the information. This can include words you have never seen before, character motives, something you read that makes you feel something emotionally, major plot points, etc.

你不應(yīng)該只是在休息的時候活動;閱讀時保持活躍也能讓你集中注意力。如果你不喜歡把事情寫下來，那就用高光筆把一些重點突出來，這樣你可以稍后再回過頭來，把它們分開來更好地記住信息。這可以包括你從未見過的單詞，人物動機，一些你讀過的能讓你產(chǎn)生感情的東西，主要的情節(jié)點，等等。

If you write or highlight as you go along, you won’t have to try and remember later on when your memory might be a little fuzzy. If you know you’ll have to discuss information in the book or write an essay, you’ll already have information outlined to make it easier on yourself.

如果你邊寫邊畫，以后你就不用試著去記，因為你的記憶可能會有點模糊。如果你知道你將不得不討論書中的信息或?qū)懸黄恼?，你已?jīng)有了信息概述，使自己更容易記住。

It may even be more beneficial for you if you’re able to block out some time to expand your notes. I recommend doing this during a break when you’re having a snack or something. You can look up some of those words you read and weren’t sure of, go back and overlook points you read that stood out to you, and search the internet to get a better understanding of some information you didn’t understand. You may also find that comparing notes to SparkNotes and CliffsNotes can be extremely helpful also.

如果你能騰出一些時間來擴展你的筆記，這甚至對你更有好處。我建議你在吃零食或其他東西的時候休息一下。你可以查閱一些你讀過但不確定的單詞，回顧并忽略那些你讀過但對你有幫助的單詞，在網(wǎng)上搜索以更好地理解你不理解的信息。你可能還會發(fā)現(xiàn)，將筆記與SparkNotes和CliffsNotes進(jìn)行比較也是非常有用的。

4. Find the perfect reading spot

找到一個完美的閱讀地點

If you think about it, you can pretty much read anywhere. However, you may find that reading just anywhere can be pretty distracting. If you want to finish a book in a day, you’re going to have to find a spot that will keep you focused on your reading. There may be a room in your house that you find most relaxing. Maybe your bedroom with candles lit, or a quiet space that you find really comfortable. Leave your phone in a different room, put in some earplugs, or go to a spot in a library where there won’t be a lot of people. It’s easy to start people watching and lose your focus, so find a place that gives you as much solitude as possible.

如果你仔細(xì)想想，你幾乎可以在任何地方閱讀。然而，你可能會發(fā)現(xiàn)在任何地方讀書都會讓人分心。如果你想在一天內(nèi)讀完一本書，你必須找到一個讓你專注于閱讀的地方。你家里可能有一個你覺得最放松的房間。也許是你點著蠟燭的臥室，或者是一個你覺得很舒服的安靜空間。把你的手機放在另一個房間，戴上耳塞，或者去圖書館，那里不會有很多人。讓別人看到你，從而失去注意力是很容易的，所以找一個能讓你盡可能獨處的地方。
