略讀(skimming)只看文章標題、下標題以及每個部分或者段落第一行，關注文章中反復出現(xiàn)的關鍵詞。略讀時，要用充足的時間讀懂段落的第一句和第二句，因為第一句往往是該段的主題句(topicsentence)，而第二句往往是對前句的延伸(extension)或進一步的解釋(explanation)。通過略讀把握文章大意運用掃讀(scanning)迅速瀏覽從第三句開始的后面部分,搜尋作者對開頭兩句的支持句(supportingsentences),并同時注意文章中間是否有轉折詞(transition),因為這些詞常常會把文章的思路逆轉或加入其它重要的信息。當讀到段落的最后一句時,我們又要使用略讀,這時必須再次放慢速度(slowdownyourpace)直到完全消化作者對段落的小結(conclusion),因為該小結有可能與主題句截然相反或引導讀者進入下一個段落。通過掃讀尋找特定信息或特定詞組Readingstrategyskimmingscanningageneralidea
