HOW TO SCORE MORE IN COMPREHENSION AND PASSAGE
(For school and board exams)
In order to score good marks in English you need to have a strong command over all the sections asked in the exam. In this article I am going to deal with the proper way of solving questions of comprehension which help you score more in the examination. In this section you are provided with an unseen passage and based on it you are asked some questions. Roughly there are two kinds of questions asked in this section. The first kind of question comprises of questions based on the subject matter of the passage. The second kind of question comprises of questions based on word power. Many students, on initially seeing the question paper, find the comprehension part really easy. However the marks scored by them in this particular section are below their expectations. For some students the comprehension section becomes really time consuming. And they end up wasting so much time in solving the comprehension that they get very little time to solve other sections. However I personally feel that comprehension are the easiest and the most scoring part of the English exams What else is better than having the answers right in front of you?. Right approach is the key of scoring good marks in comprehension.
To save time the best approach according to me is to go through the questions in the comprehension first. You should read the questions provided at the end of passage first. After you are done going through the questions read the passage. Following this pattern will give you a fair idea of what answers you are supposed to find while reading the passage. Don't forget to mark the answers while going through the passage. So by now you have read the questions, read the passage and have marked the answer. Now comes the most important part. All these efforts mean nothing if you are not able to present it well in your answer sheet. Remember NEVER to copy the sentence exactly as it is given in the passage. Your answer may be correct but you won't get full marks unless you have written it in your own words. If you don't find much scope of writing in your own words then at least do some modifications in the sentence. However make sure you are just writing the sentence in your own words. You don't have to alter the meaning of the sentence. Grammar also plays a very important role in deciding your marks. Even if you have followed all the above mentioned rules correctly but made some grammatical mistakes, you will surely be losing marks. So be very thorough with grammatical rules. Avoid making a single grammatical mistake. Practice plenty of comprehension based questions. All this will help you score good marks in comprehension. Good luck! :)
