Analyzing and Interpreting Literature / Unit 2 AIL 0141 short lesson, about 20 seconds
The Procedure, Step One
Captions available
The idea
Read the passage once at speed without stopping at anything hard. The aim is the shape of it: how many sentences, where they end, who is speaking. Stopping to solve the first difficult line loses the shape and costs time.
In practice
One fast pass for shape.
Where people slip
Do not solve line one first.
