3. Find the keyword by scanning the text. You have to locate the information that the question asks about by scanning the keyword. The keyword itself can be found in the form of its synonym. DO NOT try to understand word by word of the text, just scan.
4. Read the sentence containing the keyword. You will � nd the information needed or asked in the sentence in which the keyword occurs. You also need to read the sentence preceding or following the sentence as well.
5. Analyze the information you read in the text with the options.
The correct option of speci� c information is not always written in the same sentence as in the text; it can be in form of synonym or applies di� erent grammatical structures. So, the statement in the text and the options will possibly be di� erent but they have the same meanings. This type of questions may appear more often than others in Ujian Nasional Bahasa Inggris.
B. Key Points1. Analyze the questions through the question words (5W/1H) to � nd out what
information is being asked.
2. Several details may be mentioned in the text, so you must be able to recognize which details are related with the question.
3. The remaining part of the question contains keywords/phrases that will tell you what to look for.
4. The details in the options may be stated in di� erent forms of words and phrases in the text, but they still have similar meanings.
