  1. I've done a fair amount of research in Hindi, which is probably not as hard to read as Chinese, but is in a different script and presents some challenges of vocabulary (as in, there's a ton). I found that, over time, I learned the skill of skimming in a foreign language. If you're reading criticism or some other kind of formal non-literary discourse, eventually you'll be able to get a good gist of whatever you're reading even if you don't recognize every, or even a significant portion, of the words. Don't worry, this really will happen after a while. Also, since no one's mentioned it here, Anki (http://ichi2.net/anki/) is the best flashcard program that I know of, and probably already has a deck for classical Chinese ready-made.
