Reading SkillReading Between the Lines Reading between the lines means drawing understanding about the author's ideas from what is written and from what is not written. Writers don't always express all their thoughts openly, either as a matter of style, or because they assume we know and share their opinions-or because they aren't sure how to express themselves.
Reading SkillTo draw inferences about the author's ideas we have to be very careful with what is advised.1) You have to make use of context clues, common sense and our knowledge of the world. 2) Connect ideas and draw conclusion from the reading passage. 3) Form and test what you have understood between the lines.
Reading SkillExample
Now here are some more examples taken from passage A. (1) “Hey,” I said, “just take it.” As I spoke, I set the KFC box on the planter beside the pathway, contriving as I did so to toss my house keys into a bush. (Para. 3, Passage A) Question: Why did the writer toss his house keys into a bush? Possible answer: He would not let the robbers to have his keys to the house.
Reading Skill(2) He wasn’t stupid. I’ve seen enough criminal trials to know victims of armed attacks are seldom able to identify their offenders because their attention focuses on the guns, rather than on their users. I consciously noted details of their faces. (Para. 15, Passage A) Question: Do you think the writer was stupid, too? Possible answer: No. The writer was careful enough to note details of the robbers so that he could identify them later if possible. To get the right answers to the above questions, you have to read very carefully and also make use of context clues.
Reading SkillPractice:After lunch Diana took her bike and sneaked( 溜 ) quietly into the yard. She moved carefully to the plot of soil under the tree in back of the house as she checked to see that nobody watched her. She leaned her bicycle against the tree and bent down. All around dark clouds rumbled noisily in the sky; a streak of yellow zigzagged far away, and she trembled. Digging swiftly in the hot earth she made a small hole and in a moment took a wrinkled ten-dollar bill from her pocket. After she slipped the money into the ground and covered it, she breathed deeply and smiled. She was glad that was over! Now no one would find it or know how she got it.
