Cl3 extensive reading
1. READING COMPREHENSION III EXTENSIVE READING INTRODUCTION
FIRST ACTIVITY
1. It is always necessary to read every word of a passage.
2. It is a good idea to say the words aloud when you read.
3. Reading more slowly improves comprehension.
4. Knowing every word is necessary for comprehension.
5. As you read, you should always look up the meaning of words you do not know.
6. To read well, you need to know the pronunciation of every word.
7. Learning vocabulary is the only way to improve reading ability.
8. Learning grammar is the only way to improve reading ability.
9. You can read all kinds of texts (books, newspapers, etc.) the same way.
10. Reading in different languages requires some different reading methods.
SECOND ACTIVITY
How to choose a book for extensive reading
1. Choose a book that interests you. Your teacher and classmates may have good
suggestions, but choose the book that is best for you, not for them.
2. Choose a full-length book, not a collection of articles or stories. Reading a whole book by a
single author allows you to become comfortable with the writer’s style and vocabulary.
3. Avoid a book whose story you are already familiar with because you have read it in
another language or have seen the movie made from it. Knowing what will happen may
make it less interesting for you.
4. Evaluate the book. To find out about the author and the genre (type of book), read the
front and back covers. Read the first few pages, to find out about the style and the
subject.
5. Check the level of difficulty. If a book is too easy, it may be boring; if it is too difficult, you
may become discouraged and stop reading. To find out how difficult the book is for you,
count the number of unknown key words on a typical page. (A key word is a word you
must know in order to follow the general meaning.) Five unknown key words on one page
means the book is difficult for you. No unknown key words means the book is easy.
