- The document provides information about the scanning technique used in reading. Scanning involves quickly looking through a text to find specific information rather than reading every word. - Tips for effective scanning include not reading every word, using headings and keywords, and having questions prepared in advance. - An example is provided of using scanning skills to answer questions about types of rocks by looking for information in a passage about rocks.

7. Scanning
What is meant by scanning?
Scanning is a fast reading technique.
It’s a way of reading to look for specific
information in a text. Scanning can be used
to look up for a phone number, read
through the small ads in a newspaper, or
for browsing TV schedules, timetables,
lists, catalogues or web pages for
information. For these tasks you don’t

8. need to read or understand every word.
Scanning is also useful when studying
or looking to find specific information from
a book or article quickly as there is not
always time to read every word. It involves
running your eyes down the page looking
for specific facts or keywords and phrases.,
Presentation

9. Hints and tips for better scanning.
1. Don’t try to read every word. Instead let
your eyes move quickly until you find
what you are looking for.
2. Use clues on the page, such as headings
and titles, to help you.
3. In a dictionary or phone book, use the
‘header’ words to help you scan. You can
find these in bold type at the top of each
page.

10. 4. If you are reading for study, start by
thinking up or writing down some
questions that you want to answer.
Doing this can focus your mind and help
you find the facts or information that
you need more easily.
5. Many texts use A-Z order. These include
everyday materials such as phonebook
and indexes to books and catalogues.

scanning skills. Try looking up a favorite
recipe in the index of a cookbook,
search for a plumber in your local Yellow
Pages, or scan web pages on the Internet
to find specific information.

15. Rocks
There are many kinds of rocks. Generally,
according to how they are formed, rocks
are classified as igneous, sedimentary or
metamorphic.
Igneous Rocks
Deep within the earth’s surface exists
molten or melted materials known as
magma. This molten rock material is
extremely hot with temperature ranging
from 749˚ to 1093˚C. High pressure may
force the magma to work its way upward

16. to the earth’s surface through the cracks or
fissures. When these molten rock materials
cool off and solidify, they form what we call
igneous rocks which mean “formed by
fire.” Igneous rocks occur in two principal
forms: intrusive igneous rock and extrusive
igneous rock. Intrusive igneous rocks are
igneous rocks that do not rise all the way
to the surface of the earth. They hardened
up before reaching the earth’s surface.
They have coarse mineral grains and
crystals that can be easily seen. These are
also called plutonic rocks. Extrusive

17. igneous rocks are formed and solidified on
the surface of the earth. They are usually
fine grained, glassy or finely crystalline in
texture. Since these rocks are formed from
molten materials that are expelled by
volcanic eruptions, they are also called
volcanic rocks or pyroclastic rocks.
Sedimentary Rocks
There are rocks that consist of
materials that were once was part of older
rocks or of plants and animal parts. These
rocks were deposited millions of years ago

18. water causes the minerals to crystallize
leaving mineral deposits. Organic
sedimentary is composed of shells,
skeletons and other parts of plants or
animals.
Many different substances can act as
cement that bind the sedimentary rocks.
Of these, the most common are calcium
carbonate, silica, mud, clay and iron oxide.
Metamorphic Rock
Rocks that have changed its
appearance and sometimes its mineral

19. as layers of loose materials which become
cemented together. They are called
sedimentary rocks from the word
“sediments”. They are grouped into three:
1) classic or fragmental sedimentary, 2)
chemical sedimentary, and 3) organic
sedimentary. Classic or fragmental
sedimentary is composed of rock
fragments carried and deposited by wind,
water or glacier and are cemented
together. Chemical sedimentary is
composed of deposits of minerals
dissolved in water. The evaporation of

20. composition due to either extreme heat or
pressure are called metamorphic rocks.
They often show a layered structure but
some are said to be massive. Metamorphic
rocks that layered in appearance are
known as foliated rocks while those that
are massive are known as unfoliated rocks.
All kinds of rocks, including igneous and
sedimentary, usually undergo
metamorphism and produce the so called
metamorphic rocks.

Discussion and Analysis

24. Let us make our own reminders for
writing an outline.
An outline should have a title.
Roman numerals are used to
indicate the main topic. Place a
period after each Roman numeral.
Be sure that the Roman numerals
and the periods are in a column.
Capital letters are used in subtopics.
Indent the capital letters and place a
period after each. Arrange the capital

25. letters in a straight line too.
All main topic heading should be
divided into at least two parts. A
topic cannot logically be decided
into only one part.
All the headings should be expressed
in parallel grammatical form.
All the first word should be
capitalized

Generalization

31. Scanning is a fast reading technique that
means going over/examining a reading
material quickly to look for specific
information or fact.
• A two-point outline is a plan that
presents the main ideas and

• The main ideas are introduced by
Roman numerals while the supporting
ideas are introduced by capital letters.

32. Sharks
BIG SHARKS, SMALL SHARKS
Different species of sharks can be
very different in size. The smallest
sharks are only four inches long. The
largest, the whale shark, can grow to
60 feet long. It is not only the largest
fish any kind.
Application

33. Speedy Sharks
Blue sharks have been recorded
going 43 miles per hour. Unlike most
fish, sharks do not float very well.
They have to swim constantly, so they
will not sink.
People and Sharks
The British use shark meat or fish
and chips. Shark liver used to be a
common source of vitamin A.
Application

34. Answer these questions.
1. What is the length of the smallest
shark? the biggest shark?
2. How fast can the blue shark swim?
3. How do the British use shark meat?
4. What part of the shark is a source of
vitamin A?

36. Space Explorations
Pioneers in Space
On October 4, 1957, the Soviet
satellite called Sputnik travelled into
space. A few months later, the United
States launched Explorer 1. These early
space launches of manufactured
satellites paved the way for people to
explore the space.
Evaluation

37. People in Space
By the 1960s, the United States and
the Soviet Union had sent people in
space. On April 12, 1961, Russian
cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin became the first
man in space. In 1962, American
astronaut John Glenn orbited earth in
Friendship 7.
Following these early years of space
exploration, the Untied States launched
Apollo 11, which traveled 200,000 miles
and make history.

38. The Moon Landing
After three days’ travel though
space, Apollo 11 reached the moon’s
orbit Astronauts Neil Armstrong and
Edwin Aldrin climbed into the Eagle, a
lunar module designed to take them
from the spaceship and land on the
moon. On July 20, 1969, Armstrong and
Aldrin were the first people to walk on
the moon.
