It involves glancing through the text to determine its gist. It also implies rapid reading with special attention to the main points. The reader who is skimming looks for keywords headings, sub-headings e.t.c. The reader covers the entire reading materials as quickly as possible jotting down only the salient or cogent points. One of the major purposes of skimming is the location of main ideas.

It is the processing of large quantities of print materials for the purpose of localising particular facts or details. The reader is expected to look at the materials to be read attentively in order to find out the suitability or relevance of the material for a given purposes. The reader is expected to fast phrase by phrase with flexibility and a high degree of concentration in an attempt to draw out the salient points.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<strong>EVALUATION<br \/>\n<\/strong>Skim and scan through the comprehension passage on page 152 of your Effective English and answer the questions under it.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<strong>READING ASSIGNMENT<\/strong><br \/>\n\tPage 152- 153 of the Effective English <\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<br \/>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Speech Work: Contrasting \/s\/ and \/z\/ and  \/<strong>\u0292\/, \/f\/ and \/v\/<\/strong>\n\t\t<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>\/f\/ is a voiceless labio dental fricative while \/v\/ is a voiced labio dental fricative<br \/>\n<\/strong><strong>contrast<br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n<div>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>\/v\/<\/strong>\u00a0<\/td>\n<td><strong>\/f\/<\/strong>\u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Vine \u00a0<\/td>\n<td>Fine\u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Vast \u00a0<\/td>\n<td>Fast \u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Halve \u00a0<\/td>\n<td>Half \u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Alive \u00a0<\/td>\n<td>Life \u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Proof \u00a0<\/td>\n<td>Prove \u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Save \u00a0<\/td>\n<td>Safe \u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Divine \u00a0<\/td>\n<td>Define \u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Review \u00a0<\/td>\n<td>Refuse \u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Invest \u00a0<\/td>\n<td>Infest \u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Starve \u00a0<\/td>\n<td>Staff \u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Sieve \u00a0<\/td>\n<td>Sift \u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Live \u00a0<\/td>\n<td>Life \u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u00a0\/s\/    \/z\/<br \/>\n\/s\/ is a voiceless alveolar fricative<br \/>\n\/z\/ is a voiced alveolar fricative<\/p>\n<div>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>\/s\/\u00a0<\/td>\n<td>\/z\/\u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Sow \u00a0<\/td>\n<td>Zoo \u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Sip \u00a0<\/td>\n<td>Zip\u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Bless \u00a0<\/td>\n<td>Breeze \u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Rice \u00a0<\/td>\n<td>Rise \u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Dice \u00a0<\/td>\n<td>Dries \u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Bins \u00a0<\/td>\n<td>Beans\u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Bus \u00a0<\/td>\n<td>Business \u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Excess \u00a0<\/td>\n<td>Example \u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u00a0\/<strong>\u0292\/     \/\u0283\/<br \/>\n<\/strong>\/<strong>\u0292\/is a voiced post alveolar fricative<br \/>\n<\/strong><strong>\/\u0283\/ is a voiceless post alveolar fricative<br \/>\n<\/strong><strong>contrast<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<div>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>\/<strong>\u0292\/<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>\/\u0283\/<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Vicious \u00a0<\/td>\n<td>Erasure \u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Gracious \u00a0<\/td>\n<td>Pleasure \u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Nation \u00a0<\/td>\n<td>Treasure \u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Machine \u00a0<\/td>\n<td>Exposure \u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Precious \u00a0<\/td>\n<td>Measure \u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Commotion \u00a0<\/td>\n<td>Confusion \u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Indication \u00a0<\/td>\n<td>Decision \u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Shrub \u00a0<\/td>\n<td>Beige \u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Chauffeur \u00a0<\/td>\n<td>Mirage \u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u00a0<strong>EVALUATION<br \/>\n<\/strong>Write 2 words each to show contrast of the following pairs of sounds:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\/ <strong>\u0283<\/strong> \/  and  \/<strong>\u0292\/,<\/strong>\n\t\t<\/li>\n<li>\/s\/ and \/z\/\n<\/li>\n<li>\/v\/ and \/f\/\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>READING ASSIGNMENT<br \/>\n<\/strong>Standard Speech 10 Book, Diction in English Course page 2-6<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>INTRODUCTION TO NOMINALIZATION<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Content <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Definition\n<\/li>\n<li>Affixation\n<\/li>\n<li>Compounding\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Nominalization refers to the conversion from other word classes into nouns.
