- What kinds of things do you focus on if you’re skimming text?
- “preview” in the 5-part system is basically the same as skimming for main ideas
- p. 70 (178) - “adult learning cycle” is more useful in your daily life than following a specific “5-part system” when you read
- ---
- p. 76 (184) - “Talk with the author.”

- As you read in English, how do you deal with new vocabulary you encounter?
- https://books.google.com/ngrams - check how common a word or expression is in English books
- (Then you can focus your energy on learning the most common new vocabulary words.)
- ---
- Homework: read an article about a political/social view that you know you will disagree with
- As you’re reading, write questions or comments that you can imagine having for the author.
- (Be prepared to briefly explain the topic and your questions tomorrow in class.)
