Reading Section
Summary
The TOEFL Reading Section challenges test-takers with academic topics and a strict time limit, requiring effective strategies for comprehension and question answering.
- The TOEFL Reading Section includes academic topics such as extinct animals, evolution, psychology, art history, earth science, meteorology, and astronomy.
- Understanding the content does not require prior knowledge of the topics, as context within the passages provides necessary information.
- Time management is crucial, with a focus on grasping the big picture rather than getting bogged down in details.
- Two primary strategies are discussed: reading the passage first for a better understanding of the overall structure and going to questions first for a faster but more challenging approach.
- Types of questions include detailed, vocabulary, reference, inference, purpose, paraphrase, insert text, and special drag and drop questions like summary and category.
