  For many people today, reading is no longer relaxation.To keep up their work they must read letters, reports, trade publications, interoffice communications, not to mention newspapers and magazines: a never--ending flood of words. In --1-- a job or advancing in one, the ability to read and comprehend --2-- can mean the difference between success and failure. Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are --3-- readers. Most of us develop poor reading --4-- at an early age, and never get over them. The main deficiency --5-- in the actual stuff of language itself--words. Taken individually, words have --6-- meaning until they are strung together into phrased, sentences and paragraphs. --7--, however, the untrained reader does not read groups of words.He laboriously reads one word at a time, often regressing to --8-- words or passages.Regression, the tendency to look back over --9-- you have just read, is a common bad habit in reading.Another habit which --10-- down the speed of reading is vocalization―sounding each word either orally or mentally as --11-- reads.

But when you learn to read ideas and concepts, you will not only read faster, --16-- your comprehension will improve. Many people have found --17-- reading skill drastically improved after some training. --18-- Charlce Au, a business manager, for instance, his reading rate was a reasonably good 172 words a minute --19-- the training, now it is an excellent 1,378 words a minute. He is delighted that how he can --20-- a lot more reading material in a short period of time.
