Question

Geetika is reading fast, looking for specific information in a Mobile manual. What is this reading sub skill known as ?

A.

Critical reading

B.

Skimming

C.

Scanning

D.

Bottom up reading

Correct option is C

If Geetika is reading fast to find specific information, such as a particular feature or instruction in a mobile manual, the correct reading sub-skill is: Scanning

Difference:
Skimming: Reading quickly to get the general idea or main points of a text.
Scanning: Reading quickly to locate specific information (e.g., a word, number, or instruction).

Scanning is a reading technique used when you're looking for specific information in a text (like a name, date, number, or keyword).
Example: Geetika reading a mobile manual quickly to find specific details, like how to change settings or reset the phone.
 She isn't trying to understand the whole manual or get a general idea — she's focused on locating something specific.
