헤드라인 속독 연습

Q) 아래 주어진 예문들을 속독속해 해보자. 모두 원어민 매체에 실제 등장한 헤드라인이다. 반드시 아래 규칙을 따라서 해석을 눈으로만 해석을 시도하자.

- 예문에 볼펜 등으로 밑줄을 긋지 않는다.

- 사전, 인터넷 검색은 하지 않는다.

- 어렵게 느껴지는 예문은 그냥 대충 해석하고 지나가며, 전혀 의미가 짐작이 가지 않는 예문도 그대로 건너뛰도록 한다.

CNN 방송을 볼 때 화면 하단에 빠르게 옆으로 지나가는 뉴스 헤드라인을 보고 있다고 생각하면 되겠다. 사전을 찾아볼 겨를도, 볼펜으로 밑줄 칠 시간은 전혀 없다. 사전을 뒤적이는 순간 다른 헤드라인이 짠! 하고 나타날 테니.
