When you read aloud, you make the sound of every word on the page. When you do silent reading, you do not make any sounds. You do not have to make the sounds of every word. So silent reading should be much quicker. When you do silent reading, try to just look at the words. Do not sound them out in your mind. That will make your reading faster. Put your finger on your lips as you read silently. Do your lips move? They should not.
