Reading ComprehensionPosted onMay 12, 20131. 1. QuestionCritical
reading is a demanding process. To read critically, you must slow
down your reading and, with pencil in hand, perform specific
operations on the text. Mark up the text with your reactions,
conclusions, and questions. In other words,when youread, become an
activeparticipant.Thisparagraphbest supports the statement that:
critical reading is a slow, dull, but essential process. readers
should get in the habit of questioning the truth of what they read.
critical reading requires thoughtful and careful attention. the
best critical reading happens at critical times in a persons
life.2. 2. QuestionOne New York publisher has estimated that 50,000
to 60,000 people in the United States want an anthology that
includes the complete works of William Shakespeare. What accounts
for this renewed interest in Shakespeare? As scholars point out,
his psychological insights into both male and female characters are
amazing, even today.Thisparagraphbest supports the statement that:
New Yorkers have a renewed interest in the work of Shakespeare.
people today are interested in Shakespeares work because of the
characters. Shakespeares characters are more interesting than
fictional characters today. academic scholars are putting together
an anthology of Shakespeares work.3. 3. QuestionIf Freddie is a
fitness walker, there is no need for a commute to a health club.
His neighborhood can be his health club. He doesnt need a lot of
fancy equipment to get a good workout, either. All he needs is a
well-designed pair of athletic shoes.Thisparagraphbest supports the
statement that: fitness walking is a convenient and valuable form
of exercise. walking outdoors provides a better workout than
walking indoors. fitness walking is a better form of exercise than
weight lifting. a membership in a health club is a poor
investment.4. 4. QuestionMathematics allows us to expand our
consciousness. Mathematics tells us abouteconomictrends, patterns
of disease, and the growth of populations. Math is good at exposing
the truth, but it can also perpetuate misunderstandings and
untruths. Figures have the power to mislead
people.Thisparagraphbest supports the statement that: the study of
mathematics can be both beneficial and confusing. the study of
mathematics is more important than other disciplines. the study of
mathematics is dangerous. the power of numbers is that they cannot
lie.5. 5. QuestionIt is well known that the world urgently needs
adequate distribution of food, but adequate distribution of
medicine is just as urgent. Medical expertise and medical supplies
need to be redistributed throughout the world so that people in
emerging nations will have proper medical care.Thisparagraphbest
supports the statement that: many people who live in emerging
nations are not receiving proper medical care. the majority of the
people in the world have no medical care. not enough doctors give
time and money to those in need of medical care. medical resources
in emerging nations have diminished in the past few years.6. 6.
QuestionIt is a myth that labor shortages today center mostly on
computer jobs. Although it is true that the lack of
computer-related skills accounts for many of the problems in todays
job market, there is a lack of skilled labor in many other fields.
There is a shortage of uniformed police officers in many cities and
a shortage of trained criminal investigators in some rural areas.
These jobs may utilize computer skills,but they are not essentially
computer jobs.Thisparagraphbest supports the statement that: people
with computer skills are in demand in police and criminal
investigator jobs. trained criminal investigators are often
underpaid in rural areas. there is a shortage of skilled workers in
a variety of fields, including police work. unemployment in
computer-related fields is not as widespread as some people
think.7. 7. QuestionThere are no effective boundaries when it comes
to pollutants. Studies have shown that toxic insecticides already
banned in many countriesare riding the wind from countries where
they remain legal. Compounds such as DDT and toxaphene have been
found in remote places like the Yukon and other Arctic
regions.Thisparagraphbest supports the statement that: more
pollutants find their way into polar climates than they do into
warmer areas. studies show that many countries have ignored their
own anti-pollution laws. bans on toxins have done little to stop
the spread of pollutants. DDT and toxaphene are the two most toxic
insecticides in the world.8. 8. QuestionHuman technology began with
the development of the first stone tools about two and a half
million years ago.In the beginning, the rate of development was
slow, and hundreds of thousands of years passed without many
technological changes. Today, new technologies are reported daily
on television and in newspapers.Thisparagraphbest supports the
statement that: in todays world, new technologies are constantly
being developed. stone tools were not really technology. stone
tools were in use for two and a half million years. there is no way
to know when stone tools first came into use.9. 9. QuestionClose-up
images of Mars by the Mariner 9 probe indicated networks of valleys
that looked like the stream beds on Earth. These images also
implied that Mars once had an atmosphere that was thick enough to
trap the suns heat. If this is true, something must have happened
to Mars billions of years ago that stripped away the planets
atmosphere.Thisparagraphbest supports the statement that: Mars is
closer to the sun than Earth is. Mars once had a thicker atmosphere
than Earth does. Mars now has little or no atmosphere. the Mariner
9 probe took the first pictures of Mars.10. 10. QuestionBefore you
begin to compose abusiness letter, sit down and think about your
purpose for writing the letter. Do you want to request information,
order a product, register a complaint, or apply for something? Do
some brainstorming and gather information before you begin writing.
Always keep your objective in mind.Thisparagraphbest supports the
statement that: brainstorming and writing take approximately equal
amounts of time. business letters are frequently complaint letters.
for many different kinds of writing tasks, planning is an important
first step. while some people plan ahead when they are writing a
business letter, others do not.
