READING STRATEGY: scanning Learn how to scan an article. When you scan, you don’t read every word in the article— just look for the words that will answer your questions. For example, to complete the chart on page 12 of the Student’s Book, you only need to look for the pieces of information that answer the following questions. 1. What is each person’s occupation? 2. What is each person’s age? 3. Where does each person live? 4. What is each person’s hometown?
In the articles below, the unimportant words have been deleted.
