根据文章内容，从下框A-F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑，选项中有一项多余。

A. Speed-reading courses recommended by the author. B. Try to find your own method to improve your reading speed. C. More and more people have realized the importance of speed reading. D. People spend more time in reading to prepare themselves for the future. E. The benefits of group events in improving the speed-reading ability. F. Courses available to improve the speed-reading ability.

61.____________

Speed reading has become a necessity in the business world as well as in the world of education. More and more people are signing up to take courses online or at local community colleges to improve not only their reading speed but also the rate at which they accurately comprehend the materials they are reading.

62.__________

Many people constantly attend courses, trying to improve their reading speed and the comprehension ability. We’re in such a world where everyone maintains copious (丰富的) useless trivia rattling around in our brains in order to come out at unexpected times. However, we all know that there is no such a thing as bad knowledge, so we constantly educate ourselves in the hope that we can face any challenge or difficulty in life with ease.

63.__________

If you are looking for a speed-reading course in order to improve your skills, I recommend courses in which you are doing more than reading tips and advice. There are many that offer software, games, and other boosters to help you learn to read faster. I’m a bit skeptical of the idea of simply reading a list of suggestions in order to accelerate the reading speed and improve the reading comprehension.

64.__________

If you have joined a local group that often get together in order to “compete” or offer that little bit of competitive edge as far as speed reading goes, this is an excellent motivator for those who need a little push or a friendly competition in order to really get into the swing of things. Having some degree of accountability to yourselves or others always seem to help and offer that extra little nudge to do things faster the next time. However, it’s easier to compete with others than it is to compete with yourself. Therefore, group events are great way to encourage you to show marked improvement in your speed-reading ability.

65.__________

Keep in mind that if one method doesn’t seem to be working for you, you should try another rather than giving up all together. No two brains are alike and it sometimes takes a lot of trial and error before you find the most suitable way. The ability of speed reading is a great gift given to you by God, so don’t give up easily.
