When reading the first paragraph of the TOEFL reading essay, especially the first sentence often gives us a general framework of ideas, what is the topic of the essay? What does the author want to say? Then the first sentence of the second paragraph, think about what the author wants to say next, are there any important details in this paragraph?
And then in the third paragraph, what is said, and what are the important details here.
After a few paragraphs, make a small summary every time you read it. What is the purpose of writing down each paragraph? What is the theme?
In this way, you can sketch out the author's idea map in your mind, or draw a frame of ideas for the structure of the article on scratch paper, which will make it easier for us to solve the problem.
Before the question, take a few seconds to summarize the main idea of the article, the author's thoughts, and the topic.
As a reminder, the new TOEFL Reading Test measures your ability to answer questions, not your TOEFL reading ability. You don't need to grasp all the details of the entire article. Instead, just read the first sentence of the paragraph and then skim through the rest.
When you finish "reading" this article, you will have a general idea of the structure of the article, and you will be able to have a general grasp of the structure of the article.
Answer the questions based on the overall idea of the TOEFL reading passage. Locate the question (or option) to a specific paragraph or even a specific sentence in the article. Because you have done it this way, you can be very clear about the ideas and context of each paragraph, and when you do the question, you can quickly find the point of the question, and you can see at a glance the questions that deviate from the topic, and the topic words will be more obvious.
And in fact, each summary only takes a few seconds of pause, you might as well give it a try, and you will understand.
In the TOEFL reading test prep, you must carefully read the TOEFL reading passages, read the passages thoroughly, encounter forgotten words, check the explanations on the book again, and then memorize them. Only by reading the article intensively can you overcome the difficulty of reading the TOEFL.

Astronomy, geology, biology, meteorology, etc.; Humanities include: art aesthetics, archaeology, linguistics, literature, etc.; Social sciences include: political science, economics, education, anthropology and other interdisciplinary disciplines.
From the scope of material selection, it can be seen that the content of TOEFL reading articles has certain requirements for the breadth of candidates' knowledge storage, but at the same time, considering that candidates come from different majors and often do not have professional qualities for other subjects, in order to comply with the principle of test fairness, the articles do not do too much in-depth ** on the subjects mentioned in them.
Academic articles. This type of essay must have the character of rationality, that is, the logic of the text mostly follows a relatively fixed structural pattern.
In TOEFL articles, this introductory information often appears at the top of the article. Based on the information in the first paragraph, candidates can have an idea of the core content to be discussed in the whole article;
2) Aspects: Extend the topic at the beginning of the article into several aspects to elaborate and explain. If the topic is a scientific argument, the aspect may be divided into several supporting arguments; If the topic is a natural phenomenon, it may be divided into several internal and external causes; If the topic is a historical event, the aspect is several periods of development;
