阅读理解。      Sheela spent three days memorizing a poem for an oral test, but her friend Nisha merely scanned a new
poem twice before reciting it from memory! Why then was there a difference? Nisha just knew how to learn
better than Sheela. She had increased the ability of her brain by using some skills. Here are some steps to better
learning.
     Preview the matter first: That is, don"t plunge headlong into reading new, unfamiliar material. You can
understand more if you first scan it or skim over it quickly. Read the first sentence of each paragraph, and
glance at the table of contents and the preface.
     Slow down and read it aloud to yourself: Speed reading is fine for easy material but for more complex
works, slower reading is much more effective. Good learners vocalize (发声), either loudly or in their minds,
listening to each word as they read. They also actively think about what they read and take in it.
     Organize facts into categories: For instance, if you have to memorize a jumbled list containing names of
animals, types of transport, items of clothing and kinds of jobs, it is easier if you divide them into groups or
categories. Dividing it into smaller, meaningful parts makes it easier to learn.
     Be focused: To improve concentration (专心) and focus, fix a particular time and place for studying. Use
a variety of methods, like writing down what you"ve read or taping it and then listening to it, or making an
outline.
     Follow your own learning style: Each person has his own way of learning. lf given the pieces of an object
to assemble (集合), each of us uses a different method to arrive at the same result. Analyze your approach and
follow the method that you feel most comfortable with. 1. The passage mainly tells us _____.A. some ways to listen carefully
