Step 4 Section B 1,Reading skills: reading for the key ideas The particular reading skill introduced for this unit is reading for the key ideas in sentences. We are reading for information and the ability to find out the key ideas of sentences is of great importance to us. To find out the key idea of a sentence, we have to remember the three important points mentioned in the textbook: 1)Ask who or what the sentence is about. 2)Ask what the person or object is doing or what is happening to the person or object. 3)Learn to separate minor details from the main ideas. Many words in sentences describe things about the subject of the sentence and merely add details around it. If you focus on the key idea of a sentence only, just ignore the details as they just help support the key idea but not the key idea of the sentence. In finding out the key ideas for sentences, it is of primary importance to separate the key ideas from the details which would tell us about when, what kind, where. These are important only in the sense of supporting the key idea, but they are not the key idea of a sentence. Here, we would pick up some sentences from Passage A to find out the key ideas
