dessskris Posted June 24, 2012 Report Share Posted June 24, 2012 my teacher and some guides I read back then suggested to: skim through the questions first. this will help you to know roughly what the passage is about and what you should look out for.if you've known what to find in the passage, skim through it and pause when you see the answer to those questions.what I actually do, though: start reading the passage during the reading time. coz, what else would you spend the reading time for? you cannot choose questions/passages anyway. cross-refer to the question booklet after reading each paragraph. if I think I've found all the answers before I finish the passage, I won't read further and just carry on to the next passage. I personally don't like reading the questions first coz it gets me confused, but it actually does work with many other people.feel free to underline important points in the passage. it helps. 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
