IntroductionWhen I taught extensive reading, I found many students didn’t know how to read more effi-ciently. They had difficulties in understanding the text as a whole. They didn’t know how toinfer something from what they had read. After reading a text, they could answer correctly only5--6 out of the ten questions following it. Questions like "What is the author’s attitude?""What is the tone of this article?"or "How has the author organised his essay?" were difficultfor them.This article aims to present some suggetions for developing student’s reading skills.
