說到雅思閱讀考試，很多同學的第一反應就是：“時間不夠用”。雅思考官的6個實用建議：

'Not having enough time' is the biggest problem for most people taking the reading test. Here are some tips for dealing with this problem:

1. Go straight to the first question. Don't waste time reading the full passage or the first sentence of each paragraph, and don't read any of the other questions.
直接看第一道題目，不要浪費時間讀完全文或每一段的第一句，也不要讀其它題目。

2. Do 'paragraph' questions last. Questions that ask you to match headings or statements with paragraphs are much easier if you are already familiar with the passage.
最後做匹配段落標題題型。當你對整篇文章內容比較瞭解的時候標題配對題會更加容易。

3. Don't get stuck on one question. As soon as you realise that you are having difficulties with a question, leave it and move to the next one. Return to difficult questions later if you have time.
不要卡在一道題上。一覺得這道題目很難，就放下它去做下一道。如果最後還有時間的話再來做難題。

4. Remember that the answers to most question sections are in order in the passage. You don't need to go back to the beginning of the passage to search for each answer.
記住大多數問題答案都是按順序在文章中出現的。你不用從頭開始找每道題。

5. Only skim or scan for numbers and names. Otherwise, read at normal speed.
略讀或掃讀文章和名字，其餘部分都用正常速度閱讀。

6. Work with an alarm. You can't do this in an exam, but at home you could set the alarm (on your phone) for 2 minutes and try to do each question within this time.
學習的時候要使用鬧鐘。你在考試的時候不允許帶鬧鐘，但是在家你可以給自己設定做一道題目的時間是兩分鐘，在這個時間之內找到答案。

以上內容，希望大家能有所收穫，另外提醒大家，對於一開始接觸雅思閱讀的同學來說，先不要追求速度，而是要先保證正確率。
