Reading aloud passages in the morning is highly recommended

Good morning, folks. How are you going? Are you reading books or newspapers in the morning? I highly recommend reading aloud English-written articles in the morning as a means of boosting your reading, writing as well as speaking skills. Let's get cracking.

 

First of all, if you haven't mastered the basics of the English language including pronunciation, etymology and grammar, then it's a bit early to read aloud longer and complex sentences. The reason being is just straightforward. If you have already had, then why not. The number of vocabulary you have got in your head doesn't really matter when it comes to wrestling with reading comprehension questions, for instance. Why? Because, even if you have got an overwhelming large number of English words, the ultimate point is practicality, which means that if they aren't active words for you, then that's utterly nonsensical. For example, you've put a lot of effort in making sure that you memorise all of the words and meanings stemming from your words book/text; however you can't really and practically exercise intelligence due to the paucity of daily oral practice. Practice is everything, to be honest with you.

 

The articles you should be reading aloud don't have to be super-academic, but the ones being written by professional writers are highly recommended for sure. Professional English sentences do have hints to read and understand the big picture of what the article is talking about. I mean they are at least a few well-paraphrased sentences and expressions that contain synonyms, antonyms, derivatives, etc. So, you should have the ability to skim and scan them in a short period of time, which I reckon a very important skill when it comes to reading. Yes, of course, for purely reading aloud practice, you don't have to have such an ability, but it's nice to have it in order to read aloud more smoothly and even meaningfully. You know what I mean?

 

That's about it for today. Thanks for flicking through my ditty as usual. Talk to you soonish, mate. Ta.
