After reading the questions, skim the passage to locate the sections that contain the relevant information.

  • Why This Is Important: Skimming helps you find the relevant part of the passage without reading the entire text in detail.
  • How to Apply It:
    1. Scan for the keywords you underlined in the questions. These keywords will likely be mentioned in the passage.
    2. Pay attention to numbers, names, or facts that stand out, as these are often the answers to short-answer questions.

  • Example: If the question asks about a 30% increase, skim the passage for any mention of percentages.
