Reading Non-Fiction: Lifeboat Rescue

Worksheet Overview

In an English exam, you may be asked to read a news article.

Read the article until you feel that you have fully understood it.
 
While you are reading think about the following pieces of information:

  • What happened?
  • Where did it happen?
  • Who is involved?
  • Why did it happen?
  • What did people think about it?
  • What is the author's attitude to the topic?
