Entry 10: Talking about quotes

In this class, we order some quotes that was disorganized. With that exercise, I realized that i'm not using reading strategies, because in the quotes you can find opposites, list of actions and things like that. 

So, I will try to use that strategies in every moment, because they're very important for the every day. Sometimes you haven't a dictionary or translator and that strategies can really help you.   

With the end of this partial, I feel bad, because sometimes I still having problems doing simple questions. We read an article about CES, and the problem was that we took like 10 minutes to do a simple question, so, we have a lot to learn. 

Entry 9: Inference

In this class, we learn to use the inference to predict the meaning of some words by the context. It was interesting, because sometimes you can determine the meaning of the words without dictionary, and that's useful for fast readings. I did inference a lot of times, but i didn't think about it, i used to predict meanings by context, not only when i read texts on english, in spanish too. 

Entry 8: Contrast and restatement clues.

With Contrast clues i found easily the meaning of the words, that's because the word have the opposite on the sentence, and they're together with the connector "but". This is very useful because sometimes i don't put attention on that, and the meaning it's very easy to find. 
With Restatement clues, you can find the meaning easy, because you have the meaning next to the word. 
Both are useful in all of my subjects, not only in english, because with that strategies i will be able to read a text easily and very fast.
