書讀完就忘，大概因爲你不知道這些小tip
How often have you read a book from start to finish, only to discover that you haven't retained very much of the information it contained? This can happen with any type of book: literature, textbooks, or just-for-fun books can all contain information you really want or need to remember.
你有多少次將一本書從開始讀到結束，卻發現你沒有記住多少書中的信息?這種情況可能發生在任何類型的書中：文學、教科書、或者只是爲了娛樂的書。這些書都可能包含你真正想要或需要記住的信息。
There is good news. You can remember the important facts of a book by following a simple method.
這裏有一個好消息。你可以遵循這個簡單的方法來記憶書中重要的信息。
Have sticky notes and a pencil on hand as you read. Try to get in to the habit of keeping supplies on hand for this active reading technique.
當你閱讀時，在手邊放一個便利貼和鉛筆。在使用這種閱讀技巧時，保證這些輔助物品在手邊並保持這種習慣。
Stay alert for important or pivotal information. Learn to identify meaningful statements in your book. These are often statements that sum up a list, trend, or development in an assigned reading. In a piece of literature, this may be a statement that foreshadows an important event or a particularly beautiful use of language. After a little practice, these will start to jump out at you.
對於重要或關鍵的信息保持警覺。學着識別書中有意義的語句。這些句子通常是特定部分用來總結列表、趨勢、發展狀況的語句。在一部文學作品中，關鍵語句可能是一個暗示，預示着一個重要的事件，或者一個特別優美的語言。經過一些練習，你將可以輕鬆地發現這些語句。
Mark each important statement with a sticky flag. Place the flag in position to indicate the beginning of the statement. For instance, the sticky part of the flag can be used to underline the first word. The "tail" of the flag should stick out from the pages and show when the book is closed.
用貼紙標記每個重要語句（或其他標記）。標記的位置用來表示聲明的開始。例如，標記的部分可以用來強調第一個單詞。標記的“尾巴”應該容易識別，能輕易判斷上次讀到什麼地方。
Continue to mark passages throughout the book. Don't worry about ending up with too many flags.
繼續在整本書中標記段落，不要擔心書中有過多的標記。
If you own the book follow up with a pencil. You may want to use a very light pencil mark to underline certain words that you want to remember. This is helpful if you find that there are several important points on one page. Don't mark a book that doesn't belong to you.
如果你使用一根鉛筆讀書，你可能想要用鉛筆來輕輕標記某些詞語來強調你想要記憶的詞彙。對於每一頁有一些重要的點的情況，這種方法是適用的。要注意不要標記他人的書。
Once you have finished reading, go back to your flags. Re-read each passage that you have marked. You'll find that you can do this in a matter of minutes.
當你完成閱讀的時候，返回標記處。重新閱讀你標記的段落。你會發現這些工作可以在幾分鐘之內完成。
Make notes on a note card. Keep track of all your readings by creating a collection of note cards. These can be valuable at test time.
在卡片上做筆記。通過蒐集筆記卡片來瀏覽文章。這種方法在考試時比較實用。
Erase the pencil marks. Be sure to clean up your book and remove any pencil marks. It's O.K. to leave the sticky flags in. You may need them at finals time!
擦掉鉛筆標記。確保你的書本乾淨並且移除任何鉛筆的標記，留下一些黏貼標記是可以的。你可能在之後會需要它們。
Tips 小建議
In the course of reading a book, you may come across several noteworthy statement in each chapter, or a single thesis statement in each chapter. It depends on the book.
在你讀書的期間，可能會在每章節中遇到幾個重要的語句，或者每一章中單個的主題句，這取決於你讀的書本。
Avoid using a highlighter on a book. They are great for class notes, but they destroy the value of a book.
避免在書中使用熒光筆。這種方法對課堂筆記是有效的，但是會影響書的價值。
Only use a pencil on books you own. Don't mark library books.
在你私有的書中使用鉛筆標記，不要標記圖書館借閱的書籍。
