  Academic Reading Skills
  The Reading section measures test takers'ability to understand university-level academic texts and passages. In English-speaking academic environments students are expected to read and understand information from textbooks and other types of academic material. Below are three possible purposes for academic reading.
  Reading purposes include
  1. Reading to find information, which involves
   effectively scanning text for key facts and important information
   increasing reading fluency and rate
  2. Basic comprehension, which requires the reader to
   understand the general topic or main idea, major points, important facts and details, vocabulary in context, and pronoun references.
   make inferences about what is implied in a passage
  3. Reading to learn, which depends on the ability to
   recognize the organization and purpose of a passage
   understand relationships between ideas (for example, compare-and-contrast, cause-and-effect, agree-disagree, or steps in a process)
   organize information into a category chart or a summary in order to recall major points and important details
   infer how ideas throughout the passage connect
  The TOEFL iBT test includes three basic categories of academic texts. The categories are based on the author’s objectives:
   Exposition
   Argumentation
   Historical biographical/event narrative
  Test takers do not need any special background knowledge to correctly answer the questions in the Reading section; all the information needed to answer the questions is contained in the passages.
  Test takers must read through or scroll to the end of each passage before receiving questions on that passage. Once the questions appear, the passage is located on the right side of the computer screen, and the questions are on the left.
