the Gap

"I can read Japanese 8 times as fast as English."
I discovered this fact several days ago, and finally understood why I couldn't do well in class.
I hadn't recognized about this simple fact and suffered each time when I compared between me and the other students. But now I understand how large the gap between me and the native English speakers is. The difference in total ability is not only 8 times, but far more than it.
..But could I read English as fast as Japanese in some days? ... ... May be.
Language is important.
