furniture. The two of them were busy with pencils and paper, checking their list

of luggage (

and saw a well-dressed middle-aged lady outside. The lady said that she lived in

a flat beside theirs, and that she had come to welcome them to their new home. < /p>

you

篇

When I was in the 7th grade, I had a lot of trouble reading. My mother used to sit by my side, and

explain

each

paragraph

of

each

school

reading

assignment

to

me

because

I

didn't

understand

what

I

was

reading.

She

would

have

to

read

each

paragraph

to

me.

And

then

after

each

paragraph, she told me the general meaning of what we just read.

当我在七年级时

,

< br>我有很多麻烦阅读。我妈妈就坐在我身边

,

并解释每个学 校的每个段落阅读

作业给我

,

因为我不 明白我在读什么。她会阅读每一段给我。然后每一段后

,

她告诉 我我们刚

才读的一般意义。

In class, I tried to hide the fact that I couldn't read. My teachers gave us the last ten minutes of

class to start our reading homework, and I would sit there for ten minutes staring at the page,

pretending I was reading it. I remember a terrible feeling of not wanting to get into trouble for

not being able to understand. I had to wait until I got home so my mother could explain it to me.

How did I ever get into Cornell University?

在课堂上

,

我试图掩盖这一事实

,

我不能读。< /p>

老师给我们的最后十分钟课开始我们的阅读作业

,

为十分钟

,

我会坐在那里盯着页面

,

假装我是读它。

我记得一个可怕的感觉不想惹上麻烦

,

无法

理解。我必须等到我回家所以我母亲 可以解释它给我。我怎么进入康奈尔大学吗

?

By

the

8th

grade

I

started understanding

a

little

on

my

own,

but

I

was

reading

at

a

very

slow

speed. I got hold of all the speed-reading books I could get my hands on. I read them all very

slowly at the time. I even went out and took a course on speed-reading. Then I developed my

own

way which

was easier and

produced

quicker

results.

I

started

practicing

these

techniques

every

day,

and

as

I

started

to

read

faster,

my

understanding

increased.

I

found

that

I

stopped

daydreaming and thinking about other things while I was reading, and started getting the larger

meaning. I was reading faster and comprehending better.
