Strategies of reading comprehension Train Learners to identify the purpose in reading Learners need to read in order to get what they are looking for Skimming Quickly running one’s eyes across a whole text; gives one chance to predict the purpose of the passage. Scanning information in the passage Quickly searching for some particular pieces of information in the text.

Extensive reading: -it is carried out to achieve a general understanding of a usually long text (books, long article or essay etc) -It is sometimes performed outside of class time.

B- Intensive reading practice: Look through the reading and find: Ten verbs in the first two paragraphs (Gr 1) Ten verbs in the last two paragraphs (Gr 2) Five adjectives in the first two paragraphs (Gr 3) Five adjectives in the last two paragraphs (Gr4) Five adverbs in the last two paragraphs (Gr 5) Five prepositions in the first two paragraphs (Gr6) Five prepositions in the last two paragraphs (Gr 7) Five conjunctions in the first two paragraphs (Gr8)

Five conjunctions in the last two paragraphs (Gr 9) Ten common nouns in the passage (Gr 10) Ten abstract nouns in the passage (Gr 11) Five words ending with ing form in the passage (Gr 12)
