TOEFL Reading = 2 academic passages (~700 words) + 10 questions each.
Question types:
- Main idea — central point of paragraph or passage
- Detail — explicit information
- Vocabulary in context — word meaning in text
- Inference — conclusions from the lines
- Rhetorical purpose — why the author wrote a sentence
- Summary — best summary choice
B1-B2 issue: word-by-word reading · mental translation · time pressure.
Fix: scan for main idea · hunt evidence · no line-by-line translation.
