There are some questions that require our speed and accuracy in accomplishing a reading comprehension test, therefore; we need an effective and efficient technique. With scanning and skimming techniques, we may try the following steps when we do an exercise and a test.
.
Scanning is aimed to find only the specific information on questions without reading the whole text, while The skimming is aimed to find a general information of the text without paying too much attentions on its details.
First, preview the text to get general information with the following actions:
- Read the title of reading text (if any)
- Read the first and the last sentence in each paragraph, especially, if there's only one paragraph.
- Read the first sentence in each paragraph (if the text consists of two or more paragraphs)
The steps are important in elaborating the main idea of the story and are urgently required in answering any questions that are related to the general description of the text.
Second, read the text which is related to the very asked-questions.
It's possible to answer questions which are related to the specific information that is clearly indicated in the text and is commonly tells about a name, place, date, year, etc..
Third, stop reading the text when you've found the answer for the question you're working on.
Fourth, CHOOSE the answer if you are extremely sure. MARK the choice (a,b,c,d,e) that you think it's may be the answer. SKIP if you do not know the answer. Try not to recheck the given answers at once, do it after you've finished reading the whole questions. (as a technique to save the time)
Fifth, read the next questions and do the steps as listed in points 1-4 above.
