    Critical reading applies to non-fiction writing in which the author puts forth a position or seeks to make a statement. Critical reading is active reading. It involves more than just understanding what an author is saying.【T1】______Here are the things you should do to be a critical reader.
    Consider the context of what is written. You may be reading something that was written by an author from a different cultural context than yours. Or, you may be reading something written some time ago in a different time context than yours. 【T2】______
    Question assertions made by the author. Don’t accept what is written at face value.【T3】______Look for facts, examples, and statistics that provide support. Also, look to see if the author has integrated the work of authorities.
    Compare what is written with other written work on the subject. Look to see that what is written is consistent with what others have written about the subject. 【T4】______
    Analyze assumptions made by the author. Assumptions are whatever the author must believe is true in order to make assertions. In many cases, the author’s assumptions are not directly stated.【T5】______Once you identify an assumption, you must decide whether or not the assumption is valid.
A. This means you must read carefully in order to identify any as sumptions.
B. Before accepting what is written, be certain that the author provides sufficient support for any assertions made.

D. In either case, you must recognize and take into account any differences between your values and attitudes and those represented by the author.
