IMPROVING COLLEGE READING
(Harcourt)
in its seventh edition for college reading courses.

 

 

This widely used text takes as its basic premise a respect for the intelligence of students who take a course to improve their reading skills. The selections are all chosen on the basis of their importance and high interest level. They are presented in progress levels of difficulty with exercise material following that can be used in any number of ways. The exercises are designed to be flexible and thorough. They test vocabulary, retention of important details, understanding of the main point, and the student's ability to draw inferences from the reading.
