How often do you read to gain information?

The need for literacy has always been the same, however, for people to actually follow through with becoming, and working with our children to become literate is an increasing problem in our society. more and more people grow up without the literary skills needed to get through life, and really succeed. I read every day to get information, and I am proud of that. I grew up without a television, and all I had was books! I think it should be that way for every child. They spend too much time in front of the T.V. while their brains are just developing and in the most need of literature, and people who are devoted to helping them learn. I love to read, it is the cornerstone of my development, and my future. And we all know, a building won't stand without a cornerstone of sorts! I also know though, there's nothing like hands on experience to help you understand what you read, if possible. It helps children connect the dots so to speak. (I am quite long-winded, lol, but I hope it'll help you out!)

Write the information verbatim 5 times in a row. Its a known fact that what you write, you tend to remember.

Read as much as possible.  read the newspaper or news on the INternet as much as possible.  Soon it will become second nature because you see it so much when reading.

Hello.\n\nPersonally, I don't feel there are "too much" information. Certainly there are so much source of information that no one has time and capacity to read it all... But so what? It's like when entering in a large library: is it possible to read ALL the books there? No. Should we stop writing books? No.\n\nMy comparaison is maybe stupid but I feel it's something similar... Some source of information are simply repeating what better channel bring, some others specializes in scoop and fesh news, some others go more in depth, etc... Just like there are books for any level and any interest of people...\n\nThe "way of precessing it" is to see what you need to know, what's important to know.  Fifty years ago they had too many newspaper to read them all. So people were "chosen" what they needed. Same thing today. You will "miss" something for sure but so what... That's life!

Stop.\nReading rate is not nearly as important as comprehension.  I read nearly 300 words a minute, but often have to back up and read the same passage over.\nOdds are that you are remembering everything you saw; far more important.\nYour writing is very good- a good indicator of your ability thus far.\nTell ya what... find a large print book.  Uncover one line for just a glimpse and cover it back up.  Recall the line.  Then uncover the next line like the first and so on.\nYou will be reading by phrases instead of by words.  Far faster.\nThere are speed reading courses, but they require you to see just highlights.\nI always recommend Reader's Digest for those wishing to improve.  It has a wide variety of info from a reasonable array of styles.  All condensed down to the absolute essentials.  It also contains improvement features.

well, it totally depends on the person, but i'd say anywhere from 1-6 hours. I actually JUST finished reading a research paper that was 12 pages long and it probably took me about 1.5 hours to read. However, if I needed to summarize it and really comprehend everythign that I just read, I'd definitely have to read it again....if I did have to do this, I would write notes on a separate piece of paper (the margin could work too, but I would prefer a separate piece of paper...it would work better for me), writing down the main points of the article. Then, I would read all of the main points I wrote down, and only THEN begin to write my summary. This could be quite a lengthy process.

I guess it depends on people really.\n\nSome people read variety books widen their knowledge. However some people just asks for following reasons.\n\n1. Just making conversations\n\n2. Trying to impose or show that he/she is interest in knowledge.\n\n3. Try to make themselves to be more appealing as in the category of intelligence or the knowledge.\n\n4. Analysis of your character. Typically some people just asks to analyze of find out what kind of person you are as matter of intelligence, interest, cultural influence, and etc.

Read, get a clear understanding of the material, then review. Some people think physically writing key points out on paper will help them to remember information better.

Read and read a lot. If there's words you dont know the meaning, check in the dictionary. Make that  a habit.

One of the best ways to try to get a consistent reading is just to take it at roughly the same time every day. For example, if you come home from work the same time everyday, do it then. If you wake up every morning at the same time, do it then. That way when you look back to see a pattern, you'll have at least one thing in common with all the readings.

you must read every day. dont along time. just 1-2 hours but full concentrate. make your feel better with slow music or you can read in silence place. you can make point about your reading, what important - write that. Try to love/interest every book you want to read, it make you easy to remember.
