Description

Reading Skills for Success is a guide to advanced reading skills that can be used in conjunction with any freshman-level text.

It is an excellent sequel to Reader's Choice. Students using this book will develop their text-based processing skills by developing better understanding of word-level clues and recognizing different types of text structures.

The appendixes include two sample textbook chapters -- the first on ecosystems and the second on the diffusion of languages -- so students may practice what they have learned. Activities are designed to improve: *analytical reading of academic prose *the ability to apply one's knowledge to what is read by identifying textual relationships and structural organization of the paragraphs and the text *reading of complex academic texts with in-depth and long-term understanding using reading, test preparation, and note taking strategies. An answer key is included.
