Hello! Thank you for visiting my blog today. May has ended and it is now June when the early summer rainy season, namely Tsuyu, begins. Although I hate rainy day and so do most of the people due to a lot of negative perspective; feeling dull, depressed, headache, or getting clothes wet, "rain" is required by some, especially farmers at rice-plannning time.
Well, how many passeges do you read a week? And, how do you utilize those passages you read?- Some probably put them away immediately after reading. Others, me included, use them as a piece of a textbook instead.
Each reading text regardless of what a text book related to, like TOEFL, TOEIC, even for college admission, contains variety of topics from history to arts to physics to geology. Each passage, moreover, provide not only the knowlege but gramatical usage and vocabularies.
You can use those passages as a mere tool of reading practice. But it does not get your money's worth. You have to read attentively. What is a topic about? If that are about "second-amendment" which is famous for being a part of bill of rights in United States, you can learn the history of U.S constitution and other articles of Bill of Right. This is what i call "Knowledge" part. You can broaden your knowledge, using a passage. if you pull it off, a passage turns out to be a one textbook which convey hundreds of information or new fields.
A paasage is composed of no less than 10 to 30 or 40 sentences or more, or 400 to 1000words. There definetly are vocabularies you are not familiar with to some extent. Then, you can also make use of it as a vocaburaly builder. From gramatically perspective, it is worthwhile reading sentence by sentence, considering about role of proposition, pronoun, article, and relative pronoun. You can learn the way of expression. You can learn what this "would " means. or it gives an opportunity to compare differences betwenn synonym or thesaurus: fill in / fill out, fere/dread/fright
It is obvious to re-read a passage on and on after reading it and answer several questions. It is of significant use in some way.
