What is one of the best things a reader can do to get ready to read?

  1. Make notes

  2. Preview the text

  3. Read a summary

  4. Write down questions

The correct answer is: Preview the text

Previewing the text is an effective strategy to help a reader get ready to read. By previewing the text, a reader can get an overview of the content, identify key information such as the main idea, headings, subheadings, and any visuals that may be present. This helps the reader set a purpose for reading, activate relevant background knowledge, and make predictions about what they will learn or what the text will be about. Previewing the text can enhance comprehension and overall reading performance.
