TEXTO 2
1 John is a conscientious student. When he is told he will be tested on the content of Chapter 2 in the
2 textbook, he looks up every unknown word in the dictionary in an effort to retain the information in
3 his memory. He reads the chapter many times. Despite his extended preparations, he does not do
4 very well on the test. Mary, on the other hand, excels on the exam, but she has approached the text
5 in a very different way. Before reading the chapter, she looks at the subheadings, and graphics so as
6 to give herself a general idea of what the text will be about. As she reads through it, she connects
7 the material in the chapter to what she already knows. She frequently asks herself questions about
8 the text, looking back or ahead to link one part of the text to another. When she is puzzled by the
9 content, she searches for clues in the context, and tries to paraphrase or consider what she knows
10 about the genre. (Adapted from Janzen, Joy, 2001, p. 287)
