About this title

From the Publisher:

The primary purpose of A Reading Skills Book is to provide instruction in the reading process- as such, this book includes practice in guessing meaning from context, understanding reading structure, understanding details, and making inferences.
Vocabulary items presented in one chapter are recycled in subsequent chapters in an effort to help students expand their passive and active knowledge of vocabulary.
Each chapter features new Focus on Testing boxes, designed to help students who are preparing for standardized tests such as the TOEFL.
A supplemental audiocassette contains reading selections from each chapter.
