because they are...short. It's like reading a whole book in a few pages.

able to find the right level for you.

Improve your English through Reading.

 

Right now you are reading English. That means that you are using your brain in a very active way.. It is true that the writer does a lot of work, but the reader also has to work hard. When you read a text, you have to do some or all of these:

 

• imagine a picture or a scene in your head.

• understand clearly what the writer is trying to say.

• agree or disagree with the writer.

 

Five Tips for Reading

 

Tip #1

 

Try to read at the right level. Read something that you can understand. If you need to stop every three words to look in a dictionary, it is not interesting for you and you will soon be discouraged.
 

Tip #2

 

Make a note of new vocabulary. If there are four or five new words on a page, write them in your vocabulary book . Try to guess their meaning as you read; mark them with a pen; then come back when you have finished reading to check in a dictionary.
 

Tip #3

Try to read regularly. For example, read for a short time once a day. Fifteen minutes every day is better than two hours every Saterday. You could read for fifteen minutes when you go to bed, or when you get up, or at lunchtime.

Tip #4

Read what interests YOU. Choose a magazine or book about a subject that you like.
