Who practices the best active reading strategies?
 
  a. Rhea skims the reading and highlights the first sentence of every paragraph. She takes notes
  over the reading during class discussions. Usually she can understand what she reads without
  looking up the few words she doesn't know.
  b. Austin likes to read the assignment right before class, so it will be fresh in his mind. He can
  usually find the thesis in the introduction and underlines it. If there's time, he'll look up
  words he doesn't know.
  c. Leslie skims the reading first and then reads it more carefully a second time, highlighting the
  sentences that are major supports of the thesis. She looks up words she doesn't know and
  marks passages that are unclear, so she can ask about them in class.
  d. Geoff reads the assignment once, but he takes his time and highlights what he thinks are
  important points. He knows the instructor will talk about the thesis and audience in class, so
  he'll add that to his notes later. He circles words he doesn't know to look up when he has
  time.
