SQ3R is an active readingexercise that is designed to help you get a fuller understanding of your reading materials. You will need to keep a pen and some paper on hand to use this method.SQ3R stands for:

SQ3R讀書法是一種有效的閱讀練習(xí)，旨在幫助你更充分理解閱讀材料。用這個方法是，你的手邊要有一支筆與幾張紙。SQ3R指的是：

Survey

The first step of SQ3R is to survey the chapter.Surveymeans to observe the layout of something and get an idea of how it is constructed.Skimover the chapter and observe the titles and subtitles, take a look at the graphics, and make a mental note of the overall layout.

縱覽：SQ3R讀書法的第一步是縱覽各章，意思是觀察該書的布局謀篇，認(rèn)識到各部分如何銜接。瀏覽各章，觀察標(biāo)題與副標(biāo)題，不要忽略圖表，在心里記下整體布局。

The survey of the chapter gives you an idea of what the author considers most important. Once you have surveyed the chapter, you will have a mental framework of the reading assignment. Jot down any words that are in bold or italics.

縱覽各章可以讓你了解到作者認(rèn)為什么最重要。這樣做會讓你在心中對該閱讀材料有個大致框架。寫下粗體字或斜體字。

Question

Jot down questions that address the chapter titles and boldface (or italicized) words you've noted.

提問：寫出對你記下的章節(jié)名、粗體字和斜體字的疑問。

Read

Now that you have a framework in your mind, you can begin to read for deeper understanding.

閱讀：既然現(xiàn)在你在心中已對閱讀材料建立了大致框架，你就可以開始閱讀，尋找更深層次的理解。

Start at the beginning and read the chapter, but stop and write down test questions for yourself as you go, fill-in-the-blank style. Why do this? Sometimes things make perfect sense as we read, but not so much sense later on, as we try to remember. The questions you form will help the information "sticks" in your head.

從開頭一章一章地讀，但是一邊讀要一邊寫下測試題，可以采用填空的形式。為什么要這樣做?因為有時在閱讀過程中我們覺得有些意圖可能說得通，但之后試圖記憶時就并非如此了。你出的題目可以把這些信息“粘”在你的頭腦里。

Recite

When you reach the end of a particular passage or section, quiz yourself on the questions you’ve written. Do you know the material well enough to answer your own questions? It’s a good idea to read and answer aloud to yourself.

記誦：當(dāng)讀到某一篇末或章節(jié)末，用你出的題目測一測自己。你是否熟悉材料并且可以作答呢?大聲朗讀和回答是個好主意。

Review

For best results, the review step of SQ3R should take place a day after the other steps. Go back to review your questions, and see if you can answer them all easily. If not, go back and review the survey and the reading steps.

復(fù)習(xí)：為了達(dá)到最佳效果，應(yīng)在其他步驟完成后的一天進(jìn)行復(fù)習(xí)。溫習(xí)你提的問題，看看是否可以輕松地回答出來。如果不行，再返回去從第一部開始，一步步溫習(xí)。
