Answer to Question 1

TRUE
If the material is technical and filled with new concepts and specific subject-matter jargon,
including new vocabulary, it may be necessary to read the text a second or third time to fully
comprehend the material. Quick scanning or rereading of your notes will be adequate for
review if the first reading was done carefully.

Answer to Question 2

TRUE
The ability to read quickly is important in our productivity-oriented business world. But even
more important than reading speed are comprehension and retention.
