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 magazine: a never-ending flood of words. In _11_ a job or advancing in one, the ability to read and comprehend _12_ can mean the difference between success and failure. Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are _13_ readers. Most of us develop poor reading _14_ at an early age, and never get over them. The main deficiency _15_ in the actual stuff of language itself—words. Taken individually, words have _16_ meaning until they are strung to gather into phrase, sentences and paragraphs. _17_, however, the untrained reader does not read groups of words. He laboriously reads one word at a time, often regressing to _18_ words or passages. Regression, the tendency to look back over _19_ you have just read, is a common bad habit in reading. Another habit which _20_ down the speed of reading is vocalization—sounding each word either orally or mentally as _21_ reads.
To overcome these bad habits, some reading clinics use a device called an _22_, which moves a bar (or curtain) down the page at a predetermined speed. The bar is set at a slightly faster rate _23_ the reader finds comfortable, in order to “stretch” him. The accelerator forces the reader to read fast, _24_ word-by-word reading, regression and subvocalization, practically impossible. At first _25_ is sacrificed for speed. But when you learn to read ideas and concepts, you will not only read faster, _26_ your comprehension will improve. Many people have found _27_ reading skill drastically improved after some training. _28_ Charlie Au, a business manager, for instance, his reading rate was a reasonably good 172 words a minute _29_ the training, now it is an excellent 1,378 words a minute. He is delighted that how he can _30_ a lot more reading material in a short period of time.
