Reading Tips

When do reading comprehension we often meet this type of question:

• what is the topic of the paragraph?
• what is the main idea of the paragraph?

so, what should we do?
of course we have to read the text (can use skimming or scanning technique) to understand the text.
topic of the paragraph can be found in the first sentence of the paragraph.
then  the main idea can be found in 3 ways. 1st, it can be in the beginning of the paragraph or it can be in the end of paragraph too. but it can be take by making conclusion from the paragraph itself. why? because main idea can be intrinsic or extrinsic.
