8. How to Skim

9. Let’s practice…

10. Skimming and Scanning When you have a specific question to answer or information to collect, you need to be able to skim a page quickly to find the section you need. You can do this by scanning a text for a keyword. Can you define the three highlighted words above? Skim: to read something quickly so that you only note the important points. Keyword: a word of importance. Scan: to look quickly and not very thoroughly through a text in order to identify relevant information. In which specific situations do you think it would be a useful skill to be able to skim/scan quickly and accurately?

11. Find out the answer to the following question by skimming the passage below. What were the names of Degas’s father and mother? Degas’s background would never have suggested he was to become the revolutionary painter he was. He was born in Paris, on 19 July 1834. His father, Auguste de Gas, was a banker but his mother, Célestine, died before Degas reached his teens. Answer: Degas’s father was called ___________________ Degas’s mother was called __________________

12. You could have read through the whole piece of text until you found the answer. A quicker way would be to find the keywords in the question – in this case ‘father’and‘mother’ – then run your eyes down the text, flicking them from left to right, until you found the same (or similar) words in the article. If all you want is one piece of information, skimming can be a time-saving device. I find it’s especially useful when you’re researching something and you don’t want to have to read whole pages on a subject just to get a few pieces of information!
