<p>OK how do you do that?</p>
<p>Is it true that you cannot read fast if you move your lips<<<>>>>> cause i do that?</p>
<p>Is it true you should read using your mind not your lips for example( reading aloud)>>></p>
<p>Is it OK to skip few sentence or words when reading fast?</p>
<p>You don't read words, you read phrases.
That's how you speed up your reading.</p>
<p>I'd say the not using your lips one is correct... people generally read about 250 words per minute but only half that for speaking (unless you're an auctioneer ;))</p>
<p>Read phrases like anhtimmy said, ie. take in 3 words at a time instead of 1 by reading in chunks in a sentence. This by itself improves your reading speed without sacrificing comprehension (no need for the moving-your-eyes-zigzag-across-the-text thing unless you're doing really hardcore speed-reading, not just SATs)</p>
<p>If you're not running out of time, it's no problem. One of the most popular methods is the skipping the passage completely, only reading the little blurb saying something about it, and then going on the questions. When a question refers to specific lines, you are supposed to read 5 lines before and 5 lines after and the idea is that you end up reading less but by the time you finish all the questions comprehend the passage without wasting extra time reading the same lines twice.</p>
<p>I've tried this method and did not like it and my scores were bad because of this. I now read the entire passage because I feel that way I comprehend more. Go into reading it with interest... positive attitude is important when reading or otherwise you won't take anything in simply because you don't want to. Also, what you eat/drink has been important to me. Caffeine and sugar are big no-nos. I could not focus AT ALL after having some Amp. Reading the passages has worked best for me and I never feel pressured for time. Give it a try, but it obviously depends from person to person.</p>
<p>The key to SAT passages is not to remember ever single little detail. Just read and understand what the author is saying. The questions that will ask about these details will have lines that'll point you to the answer. So just go back to those lines and reread them.</p>
