Step 3: TL:DR
- read the title
- read the subtitles (if present)
- view the images (if present)

- take note of any text in bold/cursive/capital letters, or names
- take note of numbers and/or special characters (%, #, @, *)


Slide 14 - Diapositive

why important? 
You can use these elements to figure out the main idea (hoofdgedachte) of a text, which allows you to activate any knowledge you may already have on the topic. 

Combined with the background of the text and the type of text, this should give you a solid base to answer the questions. 

If this is not enough, you can also read the introduction and conclusion, as well as the sentences in which you found those numbers/special characters/prominent bits of text.
