[quote=FlyerInHi]There’s the art of reading fast by skipping unimportant stuff while still getting the whole story. That makes me feel guilty.
I want to learn to read fast reading every single world.[/quote]
Better to really comprehend everything vs. reading quickly, IMO.
But if you really want to speed things up, one method some use is to place a blank strip of paper below the line you’re reading, then move the strip down the page as you read, letting the strip guide the pace. You can learn to read whole lines at a time after doing this for awhile, which can increase speed. The speed is largely determined by the difficulty of the text — easy fiction vs. new and/or complex academic theories, etc.
Personally, I’ve found that I read more slowly as I get older. Partly due to poorer eyesight, but also because I like to read some things over and over again, just to make sure I fully understand what was written and how it connects to other parts of the text and other related writings and ideas.
