Sometimes you may come across a “very difficult text” like this, but don’t give up yet. We’ll revise some of the strategies we have learnt so far and we’ll see if we make it more understandable. C. Read the whole text without stopping at difficult words, just to get a general idea. D. Key information. In paragraphs 1 and 2 the key information has been bolded for you. Do the same in paragraphs 3 and 4. This will let us have a general idea, and it will also allow us to write a summary later. Remember that it is not necessary to understand every single word. Sometimes it is enough if we understand some key information that will allow us to bridge the gap of what we don’t understand. 44 Adapted from the museum guide. 74
