comprehension questions 3/11

Q: What makes you English reading difficult?

In my case, grammatical structure would be a problem. I become uncomfortable and cannot read much faster than usual reading speed, when I encounter some sentences which have unfamiliar and complicated structure.

and more, "vocabulary" and "social background"

Q: Explain each term of "Reading Process" - because of some reasons, I just explained these terms with short words.

Schema; (we skipped this term cause we all already knew it)

Shared assumption; b/g knowledge, attitudes, social b/g, language, etc...

Presupposition; unstated things

Prediction; assumption before reading
