Get more from one reading
- Find the point. Finish this sentence: “The passage mainly shows…”
- Find the proof. Match each answer to a detail or combination of clues in the text.
- Check the trap. An option may mention a real detail but answer a different question. Watch absolute words such as always and never.
- Transfer it. Write a one-sentence summary without copying the passage.
See a worked example of an answer trap
In “A place to study”, Mina still uses home for speaking practice. That detail rules out “Always study in a library”. “Choose a setting that suits your task” fits the whole passage.

Questions learners ask
Open the question that matches where you got stuck.
How should I practise reading comprehension?
Read once for the main idea. Then inspect each question and find the sentence or paragraph supporting your answer. Explain why the other options do not fit. Finish with a one-sentence summary in your own words.
Should I read every unknown word in a dictionary?
Not immediately. Try the sentence and surrounding paragraph first. Look up a word when it blocks the main meaning or keeps appearing. Constant translation can interrupt your understanding of the whole text.
