Here are some things that could help:

Scan the material. If you stop worrying about comprehension and just make sure that your eyes see all the words, you can go really fast. The thing is, your *brain* is faster even than your eyes, and if you let go of having to mouth the words or process them completely, you can get a lot faster. In speed reading classes, even when you read faster than you think that you can comprehend, post-test prove that your brain is getting some of the information. Practice just scanning (try taking a pencil and dropping down each line quickly so that your brain is seeing a whole line at a time rather than trying to read word by word, for instance), because studies have also proven that the faster you get while you are practicing speed reading, the faster your NORMAL reading speed gets too.

Depending on the age of the student there are various techniques to increase reading speed. For early elementary students, one technique is to take a "book tour" before reading the book. This is done by giving the student time to look though the pictures in the book before reading, so they can get a feeling of what the book is about. If a child stumbles while reading, they can decode a word through different techniques. One is to look at the picture to see what action is happening, and that may give a clue to decipher a word. Another is to skip the word, and continue reading the sentence to see what word may make sense to complete the thought. This way the educator is not hand feeding the answers to students, but allow the children to decipher the words for themselves. Of course practice is the ultimate key to becoming a faster reader.

Why the increase in overhead rate should not have a negative financial impact?

An increase in overhead rate may not have a negative financial impact if it is offset by increased productivity or improved efficiency in the company's operations. Additionally, if the increase in overhead rate is a result of investments in long-term growth strategies, it may lead to higher revenues and profitability in the future, outweighing the initial increase in costs. It is important for companies to carefully manage their overhead expenses to ensure they are aligned with the overall business strategy.


Does the rate of facilitated diffusion increase or decrease as the number of carrier proteins increase?

Does the heart rate change when doing shot put?

Typically it does increase, depending on many factors such as heat, humidity and factors upon yourself such as age or gender. However, since shot put is physical activity, the heart rate will increase accordingly. The increase should not be too high, however, because simply lifting such a low weight should not induce too much stress. If there is a significant increase in heart rate, something may be wrong. In conclusion, heart rate should increase slightly, and based on other factors affecting heart rate it may increase more than anticipated.
