Scanning to answer questions
If you are scanning for facts to answer a specific question, one step is already done for you: the question itself supplies the keywords. Follow these steps:
Read each question completely before starting to scan. Choose your keywords from the question itself.
Look for answers to only one question at a time. Scan separately for each question.
When you locate a keyword, read the surrounding text carefully to see if it is relevant.
Re-read the question to determine if the answer you found answers this question.
