Answer 1

閱讀使人增長知識，但沒有好的閱讀方法可能會使閱讀過程耗費時間，因此，讀一讀作者的建議是有益處的。

1. c考查轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。前文說到閱讀有意思，這里話鋒一轉(zhuǎn)：如果你的閱讀速度跟不上，閱讀將很耗時間。選項C符合行文邏輯。

2. F考查并列關(guān)系。本段作者談到，對于不同的閱讀材料應(yīng)放寸曼速度。

F項"you don't have to understand it completely" 與其前的"you are already familiar with.…"構(gòu)成平行的并列關(guān)系_c

3. B考查遞進關(guān)系。在本段里，作者的意思是由于你集中精力的時間有限，所以制定合適的閱讀計劃很關(guān)鍵。

4. E考查評注關(guān)系。對于暫時不懂的內(nèi)容，作者的建議是不要馬上去反復(fù)地讀，那會影響你的閱讀速度，應(yīng)之后再去理解。

5. G本句總結(jié)升華。最好的方法是練習，光說不練沒有用。選項與其前的用詞practice也吻合。
