Different methods of reading

One of the skills, that we should learn in English is reading. There are two methods of reading, skim & scan. Scan means we need to read word by word to get the content but skimming is just read one or 2 sentences from each paragraph to get the idea of whole passage. While we are doing the comprehension reading, it depends on the questions, some times we need to focus on scanning, sometimes skimming . So we need to practice on both.
