2- Are there any occasions when reading at speed is a useful skill ?
Personally , If I’m reading something interesting , I don’t like reading too quickly because I feel that I don’t properly
absorb the information . However, it can be useful to skim through things when you don’t really want to read them , or
when you just need to find one particular piece of information . For example , I read at speed when I’m
checking a household bill or a letter from the bank
