Language is human's greatest inventions. The ability to read and write is 1 to express one's feelings. Most humans can speak very well 2 they are about three years old. But how can we become a better reader? Here are some ways.
First take it slow. Many readers feel that they read too slowly, especially compared 3 others. But the truth is that the faster you read, 4 you are to understand what you're reading.
