Read the following text and… glups!<br />

Sometimes you may come across a “very difficult text” like<br />

this, but don’t give up yet. We’ll revise some of the strategies<br />

we have learnt so far and we’ll see if we make it more<br />

understandable.<br />

C. Read the whole text without s<strong>to</strong>pping at difficult words, just <strong>to</strong> get a general<br />

idea.<br />

D. Key information. In paragraphs 1 and 2 the key information has been bolded for<br />

you. Do the same in paragraphs 3 and 4. This will let us have a general idea, and it<br />

will also allow us <strong>to</strong> write a summary later.<br />

Remember that it is not necessary <strong>to</strong> understand every single<br />

word. Sometimes it is enough if we understand some key<br />

information that will allow us <strong>to</strong> bridge the gap of what we<br />

don’t understand.<br />
