Finding Specific Information

What are we learning today?

You will learn to find facts and details in a short text.

Explanation

• Find the key words from the question in the text.
• Then read that sentence carefully.
• Some tasks have three answers: Right, Wrong, or Doesn't say.
• Choose "Doesn't say" when the text has no information about it.

Examples

1. The text says Riley cleans the chicken house and then has breakfast. "He cleans it before breakfast" is Right.
2. The text says his school is 300 km away. "He lives near his school" is Wrong.
3. The text does not tell us if he understands Science. The answer is Doesn't say.

Remember!

• Look for key words first.
• Do not guess. Use only what the text says.

Check yourself

1. The text says an old computer needed a whole room. Is "The computer was very small" Right, Wrong or Doesn't say?
2. When do you choose "Doesn't say"?
