The purpose of
reading in many languages is to inform ourselves about something we are
interested, or to challenge certain our methods. In other words, to extend our

information. He may also read for enjoyment, or to enhance knowledge of the
language being read (Janz: 2004). Although every student knows how to read, many have never
learned good reading skills. (Royse, 2001: 127).??????????????
