Fast Reading Comprehension

Read for some people is a tedious job, because they consider that reading just waste of their spare time, though from reading we can obtain various information and technology. In addition, by reading helps the brain to work optimally. In order to read more fun and can be read quickly, here are some reviews on how to read quickly.

Definition of Reading :
The definition in linguistics to explain that reading is a process of re-encoding and decoding process. These aspects relate written words to the meaning of spoken language. This includes changing the text or mold into a meaningful sound.
Reading is a process that is carried and used by readers who want to get the message presented by the author through the words of the written language .. A process that requires the reader to understand the written word group is a unified and visible in a glance, and the meanings of words that can be known precisely. If this can be met then the message is explicit and the implicit can be understood, so that the process of reading has been performing well.
Someone who was reading meant he was performing an activity in the form of communicating with yourself through written symbols. Meaning does not lie in not reading the written material, but also lies in the reader's mind itself. Thus the meaning of the reading can vary depending on the reader and the different experiences he had at the time to read and used to interpret the written words.

A good reader is someone who can take feedback on the language (an idea, stye, and maturity of the author) and a decent sense of speed. Good reading ability is very important in a reading.

To develop and improve skills needed in reading are:

• It can help students to enrich their vocabulary by introducing words synonyms, antonyms, supplement, and explain the meaning of a word abstract using the local language or their native language.

• Can help students to understand the meaning of the word structures, sentence and accompanied by the necessary training.

• Can increase the speed of reading the students by asking them to read to himself, avoiding the lip movement, and explain the purpose of reading.

Someone who can understand a reading or discourse, will find the form of schemata that provide an adequate proposal of a reading. A reading comprehension process is to find the configuration schemata that offer an adequate description of a reading. Until now the concept of the scheme is the way to the most promising from the point of discourse in general. Because schemata are part of the presentation of background knowledge, breadth of knowledge and experience of readers is one basis for the strong design makes use of the concept of the scheme.

Capabilities needed in reading comprehension include:
• understand the vocabulary used in common language and can deduce its meaning in context.
• understand the forms of syntactic and morphological features found in reading written.
• can draw conclusions and a valid response of the material read.

Based on the above statement then the ability to read is how someone can understand very well what that message was conveyed in the passage, so that the information may be disclosed again absorbed properly, either orally or in writing.

Core part of speed reading is how you read a few words together and move your eyes to catch the words quickly. Imagine the analogy of a computer that has a super fast processor. This is your brain. And the speed of your eyes in seeing likened verbatim data sender channel that will determine whether the processor speed is fully utilized or are left in the idle condition because there is no data to be processed.

Most people read word by word It will slow read speed. You have to practice to be read per block words

In a quick reading of fixation / scan the eye at the widening So could read several words at once.

By reading the block of words, reading time, would be more concise. 'In a fast reader' reads one can see, then 'fixation widened' is also read with a single look. So also with 'So that could be read' and 'a few words at a time', only read once saw.

The degrees of comparison

In English grammar the degree of comparison of an adjective or adverb that describes the relational value of one thing with something in another clause of a sentence. An adjective may simply describe a quality, (the positive); it may compare the quality with that of another of its kind (comparative degree); and it may compare the quality with many or all others (superlative degree). In other languages it may describe a very large degree of a particular quality (in Semitic linguistics, called an elative).

The degree of comparison may be expressed morphologically, or syntactically. In English, for example, most monosyllabic and some disyllabic adjectives have morphological degrees of comparison: green (positive), greener (comparative), greenest (superlative); pretty, prettier, prettiest; while most polysyllabic adjectives use syntax: complex, more complex, most complex.

1. The positive degree is the most basic form of the adjective, positive because it does not relate to any superior or inferior qualities of other things in speech.
2. The comparative degree denotes a greater amount of a quality relative to something else. The phrase “Anna is taller than her father” means that Anna's degree of tallness is greater than her father's degree of tallness.
3. The superlative degree denotes the most, the largest, etc., by which it differs from other things.

Dengue Fever

Extremely season as it is now vulnerable to various diseases such as coughs, colds, flu and even deadly diseases such as dengue fever. For that we should be able to maintain a healthy body and environment around us. One of dengue fever caused could become an epidemic disease caused by the environment are not good so the larva of mosquitoes can breed well.
One symptom of dengue fever which is initiated from a hot body temperature and influenza, cough and sometimes even vomiting. Like symptoms are almost the same as symptoms of typhoid disease or gastritis.

As happened on my friend's son, at first they thought it was just like the common cold diseases suffered by young children in general. But his temperature heat can not go down until a few days so they decided to check the blood to determine the type illness. At the first check did not reveal any disease dengue fever. But body temperature is still hot and even diarrhea. In the end they decided again to check the blood of the second. In the second test was only discovered the existence of dengue fever. But it was too late, because the disease was most severe. Eventually his son could not helped and died.
Looking at these experiences, we should be more alert to weather changes that happened lately, so the incident will not recur.
Here, I try to explain what actually arriving fever :
What is dengue fever?
Dengue fever is a disease caused by a family of viruses that are transmitted by mosquitoes. It is an acute illness of sudden onset that usually follows a benign course with symptoms such as headache, fever, exhaustion, severe muscle and joint pain, swollen glands (lymphadenopathy), and rash. The presence (the "dengue triad") of fever, rash, and headache (and other pains) is particularly characteristic of dengue. Other signs of dengue fever include bleeding gums, severe pain behind the eyes, and red palms and soles.
Dengue (pronounced DENG-gay) strikes people with low levels of immunity. Because it is caused by one of four serotypes of virus, it is possible to get dengue fever multiple times. However, an attack of dengue produces immunity for a lifetime to that particular serotype to which the patient was exposed.
Dengue goes by other names, including "breakbone" or "dandy fever." Victims of dengue often have contortions due to the intense joint and muscle pain, hence the name breakbone fever. Slaves in the West Indies who contracted dengue were said to have dandy fever because of their postures and gait.
Dengue hemorrhagic fever is a more severe form of the viral illness. Manifestations include headache, fever, rash, and evidence of hemorrhage in the body. Petechiae (small red or purple blisters under the skin), bleeding in the nose or gums, black stools, or easy bruising are all possible signs of hemorrhage. This form of dengue fever can be life-threatening and can progress to the most severe form of the illness, dengue shock syndrome.
What are dengue fever symptoms and signs?
After being bitten by a mosquito carrying the virus, the incubation period ranges from three to 15 (usually five to eight) days before the signs and symptoms of dengue appear. Dengue starts with chills, headache, pain upon moving the eyes, and low backache. Painful aching in the legs and joints occurs during the first hours of illness. The temperature rises quickly as high as 104 F (40 C), with relative low heart rate (bradycardia) and low blood pressure (hypotension). The eyes become reddened. A flushing or pale pink rash comes over the face and then disappears. The glands (lymph nodes) in the neck and groin are often swollen.
Fever and other signs of dengue last for two to four days, followed by a rapid drop in body temperature (defervescence) with profuse sweating. This precedes a period with normal temperature and a sense of well-being that lasts about a day. A second rapid rise in temperature follows. A characteristic rash appears along with the fever and spreads from the extremities to cover the entire body except the face. The palms and soles may be bright red and swollen.
What is the treatment for dengue fever?
Because dengue fever is caused by a virus, there is no specific medicine or antibiotic to treat it. For typical dengue, the treatment is purely concerned with relief of the symptoms (symptomatic). Rest and fluid intake for adequate hydration is important. Aspirin and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs should only be taken under a doctor's supervision because of the possibility of worsening hemorrhagic complications. Acetaminophen (Tylenol) and codeine may be given for severe headache and for the joint and muscle pain (myalgia).
How can dengue fever be prevented?
The transmission of the virus to mosquitoes must be interrupted to prevent the illness. To this end, patients are kept under mosquito netting until the second bout of fever is over and they are no longer contagious.
The prevention of dengue requires control or eradication of the mosquitoes carrying the virus that causes dengue. In nations plagued by dengue fever, people are urged to empty stagnant water from old tires, trash cans, and flower pots. Governmental initiatives to decrease mosquitoes also help to keep the disease in check but have been poorly effective.
To prevent mosquito bites, wear long pants and long sleeves. For personal protection, use mosquito repellant sprays that contain DEET when visiting places where dengue is endemic. Limiting exposure to mosquitoes by avoiding standing water and staying indoors two hours after sunrise and before sunset will help. The Aedes aegypti mosquito is a daytime biter with peak periods of biting around sunrise and sunset. It may bite at any time of the day and is often hidden inside homes or other dwellings, especially in urban areas.
There is currently no vaccine available for dengue fever. There is a vaccine undergoing clinical trials, but it is too early to tell if it will be safe or effective. Early results of clinical trials show that a vaccine may be available by 2012.
