Jeffery Said:

Does anyone know any tips for reading a book or story better and answering comprehension questions better also

We Answered:

It might sound like a pain in the ****, but the best way I know is to first scan the chapter quickly before you read it. By "scanning" I mean just allow your eyes to move over the page and let your eyes pick up key words or ideas. Don't actually read, just give a few seconds for each page. Look at 3-5 lines at a time. You will be surprised how you will just natually notice some words, and you'll have some general overview of what to pay attention to when you do go back and actually read thu the whole chapter. Do this for each chapter, and after a while you will get the hang of it and really come away with a better understanding of the book. I t might take a bit longer to do, but it will feel like you read the book twice after your first time thru. Give it a shot.
