Study skillsSkimming
Skimming means reading the text quickly to get the main idea.
Skimming is often used when we read:
newspapers (to quickly get the general news of the day).
magazines (to find interesting articles we would like to read in more detail).
business and travel guides (to quickly get information).
When skimming, read the title, the main headings, the first and last paragraphs, and the first sentence of each paragraph. This will give you a good idea of what the text is about.PracticeIt’s about how your personality is formed.Yes, it is.
