Extensive Reading
This
is the last week that we studied this course. At my point of view "Time
goes by fast" because the study in the first semester will end and I have
to take a final examination so I need to prepare myself as well in order to get
the better scores of this final examination.
Today,
we studied about "EXTENSIVE READING" before we studied, the
teacher had told us about the midterm test scores. I got 12.5 points. I was unpleasure
with my score a little bit because I hadn't been confident about the final test
and very difficult. When she had already told us, she taught us about this
content. An important point is that the two language researchers conducted an
interesting experiment with a group of English language students in Japan.
These students didn't like English and failed the test so the researchers put
these students in a special class. At the end of the semester, the results were
surprising because their scores on the new tests were as high as the regular
English students including their English ability had been improved and they had
been enjoy of this class.
Next,
we responded the questions of this handout. I used the skimming skill by
reading the title, subtitle in order to find the answers respectively. In
addition, I used the scanning by reading the details in order to find the
questions either.
I
also knew that "READING ENGLISH" can help us to improve
other skills including Speaking, Listening, Writing and Reading skills. It can
tend to help us to get the high TOEIC/TOEFL scores. Thereby, if we read a lot,
we will tend to have these skills and get the high TOEIC/TOEFL scores as well.

We answered the questions in sheet, first I read the question and then I found the answers by see the sub-heading and skimming texts in that paragraph. It was not too hard when I read it because vocabularies are easy but when I didn't know some word, I found meaning from the context. This strategy, I studied from read faster lesson.
