Discuss these questions with a small group.
1. Do you drink coffee? If so, how often? What kinds of coffee drinks do you like?
2. Are coffee shops popular where you live? What kinds of people go there? What are some reasons a person would drink coffee in a coffee shop instead of at home?
3. Name some countries that produce a lot of coffee. (Check your answers on page 21). Which countries do you think import a lot of coffee? What do you know about how coffee is grown?
Reading 1: Cross-Cultural Communication
Pre-Reading Activities
Skimming and Scanning As a student, you will be assigned a lot of reading. Sometimes it is important to read slowly and carefully. Other times, you are just trying to find specific information. Skimming and scanning are skills that will help you with both of these types of reading.
SKIMMING To skim means to run your eyes over a text very quickly. Read the title so that you know what the reading is about. Read the first few sentences of each paragraph to get the main ideas. Quickly read the conclusion. You will also get an impression of how long the reading is and how difficult it will be.
You might think it will take more time to first skim and then go back to the beginning to read carefully. But actually, skimming will save you time because you will read more easily and remember more.
Most of the time, you would not skim a novel. But try skimming your academic reading, as well as newspaper and magazine articles and websites. You will also practice skimming in almost every reading in this book.
SCANNING To scan means to look just for specific information. When you look for a definition in a dictionary, you are scanning. You are looking for only one entry. You find it as quickly as you can, and you read only that information.
When you scan, think first about what kind of answer you are looking for. Are you looking for someone's name? Then look for two words with capital letters (Mohandas Gandhi). Are you looking for a date? Then look for four numbers together (1876).
