 INTRODUCTION:
 Effective Communication Skills Are Always Essential In Our
Academic And Professional Career.
 They are vital these days amidst the advancements in
technology and globalization etc.
 When we talk about the time generally spent by professional
on communication activities , we see that the time spent on
receiving information is more than seeding it
 WHAT IS READING COMPREHENSION?
 Reading comprehension refers to the ability to the
understand information presented in written form.
 While this skin usually entails understanding this textbook
assignment or articles in newspaper and journals or various
business documents.
 READING STRATEGIS:
READING GENERAL ARTICALES:
 Pay attention to the title , visual and the introductory
paragraph to know the topic and the scope.
 Try to connect the ideas to understand the content . In order
to create a dramatic impact , some may not present the ideas
in a logical sequence.
 Think how you can use the ideas from the articles you read in your every day enjoy
the language life. Article such as ‘Energy drinks could be harmful’ may help you to
be cautions with energy drinks.
 Enjoy the language , subtle humour and the example used by the author . Enjoy the
simple but clear language and sense of humour in article ‘connecting to making ‘
by Jon Stock.
 READING ESSAYS:
 Essays are generally written from the author’s own point of
view.
 As a part of the application process , anyone wishing to
pursue higher studies is asked to write essays about their
objectives in joining the proposed academic discipline and
how they feel that their present/past academic experience will
help them in achieving these objectives.
TECHNIQUES OF READINGS:
 Poor comprehension skills are usually attributable to one or more factors : lack of
concentration , failure to understand a word , a sentences, or relationship among
sentences , or failure to understand how information fits together.
 In this section , we will look at the underlying aspects of text you need to be aware
of and the techniques you should develop and practise to hone your reading skills.
SKIMMING AND SCANNING:
 Skimming is used to quickly gather the most important
information or gist Run your eyes over the text.
 Use skimming to quickly get up to speed on a current
business situation.
 It is not essential to understand each word when skimming.
 Scanning
 Scanning is used to find a particular piece of information.
 Run your eyes over the text looking for the specific piece of
information you need.
 Use scanning on schedules , meeting plans , etc. in order to
find the specific details you require,
 If you see words or phrases that you don`t understand , don`t
worry when scanning.
 STRUCTURE OF THE TEXT:
 Most text starts with a title and sometimes a subtitle. After
that comes the introduction and body , followed by a
conclusion or summary.
 The introduction mostly informs you about what you can
expects. The lady consists of paragraphs.
 The conclusion sums up and puts the subjects matter in the
right perspective.
 STRUCTURE OF PARAGRAPH
 A typical paragraph consists of three parts . The first sentence
contains the topic sentence which is the heart of the
paragraph.
 The topic sentence contains the new aspects of the subject of
the text . The second paragraph contains which develop the
ascept.
 The last sentence of a paragraph is often a summary of the
paragraph or a linking sentence to the next paragraph
 Punctuation:
 Punctuation is partly based on grammar ..For example ,
commas are often used to separate clauses.
 If you understand the meaning and usage of punctuation
marks, it will be easier to understand the grammatical
structures.
 Punctuation marks also indicate how the author wants you to
interpret a piece of text . For , example,if the author puts
something in brackets, that part of the sentence should be
interpreted as an addition to the sentence.
 Author`s viewpoint:
 In a reading a text you make inference or assumption about
the position of the author.
 Is the author neutral or he or she has an opinion ?
 The author often shows his or her opinion either by adding
certain phrases or by adding a value to a word.
 The author can also revel his viewpoint by adding value to a
word .for example if something is small he may use words
huge or gigantic to indicate he is impressed .
 If someone is afraid he may use the word terrified to add
suspense ; if something is good he may use the word
fantastic.
 Summarizing:
 It is very difficult to remember the complete contents of long
texts.
 For that reason it is often advisable to make notes of essential
information in the text.
 The average length of a good summary is about one-third of
the original text , but summaries of detailed texts may be
longer.
