for what you're going to read so

3:34

this case it's important to read that

3:36

and the title pay attention to the title

3:39

of the text

3:40

again it prepares you for what you're

3:41

going to read it gives you an idea

3:43

okay let's go into some detail on how to

3:46

do each part of the reading

3:48
