Once you have reviewed the features list, start by skimming through the passage. While doing so, quickly identify and highlight or note down where the specific features (names, dates, or events) are mentioned. This will help you locate them when matching information later.

• Why This Is Important: Skimming allows you to familiarize yourself with where each feature is discussed in the passage, so you don’t waste time looking for it again later.
• How to Apply It:

1. Skim through the passage and make note of where each feature (name, date, or event) is mentioned. Underline or highlight any key phrases related to that feature.
2. Make notes on the margin next to the paragraph if needed. This will help you remember where specific details related to the feature are discussed.

• Example: If one paragraph mentions “Einstein’s theory of relativity in 1905,” you should highlight “Einstein” and “1905” and note that this is the section dealing with his contribution to physics.
