    Critical reading involves analyzing a text to evaluate whether its ideas are logical and connected. It requires recognizing both what a text says explicitly as well as what it implies or assumes. The reader considers the author's purpose, tone, and potential biases, and analyzes the strength of arguments and evidence used. Practicing critical reading helps develop important thinking skills for evaluating the reliability and credibility of information.

    Why do we need to take a

    is a type of reading whereby the

    Critical Reading
    After recognizing what a text says, it reflects
    on what the text does by making judgement.
    Its certain goal is to recognize the author’s
    purpose in writing the material, understand
    the tone and persuasive elements in it, and
    to recognize bias in the text.
    It recognizes what a text says, reflects on
    what the text does, and infers on what the
    text means.
    The reader actively recognizes and analyzes
    evidence in the text.
