The Effects of Reading Strategy Instruction

I have learned a lot of reading strategies in our English reading class such as Summarizing the gist, Using context clues, Activate prior knowledge, Mind mapping and so on. These strategies are truly useful for me. Especially for using context clues, it is a good way not only to help me to find the meanings out but also to build up my vocabulary. According to previous studying, I usually encountered unfamiliar words when I read, then I unable to continue reading it. It wastes time if I insist to look those words up in the dictionary. But when I learn to use context clues, I may not even need to use a dictionary because I can guess the meaning of unknown words from the context. However, reading can help me to increase vocabulary, pronounce and grammar, so I will choose something to read that I like, it can actually be interesting and enjoyable. For example, I will try to read English-language newspapers on the Internet. Newspapers are interesting because they are real life and the latest news. To sum up, I am able to use more reading strategies to enhance reading enjoyment. They can fully increase my reading efficiency.

Reading a Book Or Watching a Movie

Do you prefer to read a book first or watching a movie first? I would say both have their advantages but I prefer to read the book first. When I read the book I can create pictures in my mind and then I watch the movie to meet my expectations. With reading, we can use our imagination. We can stop and reread a passage whenever we want. On the other hand, we do not have time to image with a movie, because it hurry past. When I read the book before watching the move, I often find some part of the book is missing from the movie. This is why reading the book first is best if I can. However, I will always enjoy and use films to develop my imagination.
