如何提高阅读理解？

通常阅读理解的问题会围绕着5Ws + How（who, what, when, where, why, and how). 如果是针对课文的基本理解，那就要从文章中找答案。这是的回答应是作者 的想法。如果提问属于Higher Order Thinking (Open-ended), 即可以各抒己见，不仅只有一个答案的，就可以以文章中的问题为起点自由阐述和发挥。

Examples of Higher Order Thinking (Open-ended)questions.

1. Can you make a prediction about the main character and the next events? How did you know ... would happen next? What type of information in the text has helped you make this prediction?

2. What kind of person do you think the main character is? Why did you think he is ...? Can you go back to the text to find proofs or examples to support your answer?

3. Can you compare and contrast the main characters in the story? Find examples and proofs in the text to support your answers. Ex: Big and second pig Vs little pig in the Three Little Pigs.

4. If you were the judge, how would you rate the story from 1 to 5? What criteria or rubric would you use to rate the story? For younger kids, simply the question by asking " Do you like the story? Why or why not?" 

5. How would you end the story if you were the author?
