SKIMMINGO que é Skimming?

“Ler rapidamente para pegar a ideia geral do

texto.”

Skimming. Quando?

Não leia tudo, mas tente ter uma visão geral do texto.

Leia a primeira e a última frase dos parágrafos.

Leia a introdução e o sumário.

Leia alguns exemplos até que você entenda os conceitos que o texto quer ilustrar.

How to SKIM ?Leia o título.

Leia o subtítulo ou introdução.

Leia a primeira frase de cada parágrafo.

Repare nas figuras, tabelas e gráficos.

Leia o sumário ou o ultimo parágrafo, se houver.

Let’s practice skimming using the questions below.

Choose a heading that best matches the upcoming paragraph. Remember to underline your key words.

• Parents are to blame for the state of children today.

• A report with many conclusions and worries about the United Kingdom.

• Growing up unhappy generation• There are so many social problems young people

face today.

Let’s skim the first and last sentences from the passage.

In recent years, evidence has been collected which suggests that the proportion of British children and teenagers who are unhappy is higher than in many other developed countries around the world. For example, a recently published report set out to measure ‘ well-being’ among young people in nineteen European countries, found that the United Kingdom came bottom. The report was based on statistics and surveys in which young people answered questions on a wide range of subject. The United Kingdom is a relatively unequal country with a relatively high proportion of young people living in households. With less than half the national average income. This seems to have a negative effect on how they feel about themselves.So what’s our answer?Choose the heading that best matches the previous paragraph.a. Parents are to blame for the state of children today

b. A report with many conclusions and worries about the United Kingdomc. Growing up unhappy generationd. There are so many social problems young people face today
