व्यापक पठन का ध्यान पाठों का आनंद प्राप्त करने और समग्र समझ पर केंद्रित होता है, विस्तृत विश्लेषण या विशिष्ट अधिगम लक्ष्यों पर नहीं।

Key Points

• व्यापक पठन का मुख्य उद्देश्य समग्र पठन कौशल में सुधार करना है, जिसमें शब्दावली अर्जन, भाषा प्रवीणता, पठन गति और समझ शामिल है।
• व्यापक पठन से विभिन्न विधाओं, लेखन शैलियों और सांस्कृतिक दृष्टिकोणों की सराहना हो सकती है।
• यह आमतौर पर व्याकरणिक नियमों और संरचनाओं को याद करने पर ध्यान केंद्रित नहीं करता है, जो आमतौर पर स्पष्ट व्याकरण निर्देश या गहन भाषा अध्ययन से जुड़ा होता है।

इसलिए, 'व्याकरणिक नियमों और संरचनाओं को याद करना' सही ढंग से एक ऐसे उद्देश्य की पहचान करता है जो आमतौर पर व्यापक पठन का प्राथमिक उद्देश्य नहीं है।

व्यापक पठन का अर्थ है आनंद/खुशी के लिए और पाठ की समग्र समझ के लिए पढ़ना। यह सूक्ष्म विवरणों को खोजने के लिए नहीं किया जाता है, बल्कि इसमें आनंद के लिए लंबे पाठ पढ़ना शामिल है।

Key Points

• कथन: व्यापक पठन भाषा दक्षता को बढ़ाता है। यह कथन सत्य है क्योंकि व्यापक पठन, जिसमें आनंद और समझ के लिए बड़ी मात्रा में पाठ पढ़ना शामिल है।
• यह व्यक्तियों को विविध शब्दावली, व्याकरणिक संरचनाओं और लेखन की शैलियों से अवगत कराता है, जिससे भाषा कौशल के विकास में योगदान होता है।
• कारण: इसमें आनंद और अर्थानुमान के लिए पढ़ना शामिल है। यह कथन भी सत्य है।
• व्यापक पठन में आमतौर पर आनंद और समझ के लिए पढ़ना शामिल होता है, न कि विशिष्ट विवरणों पर ध्यान केंद्रित करना। इस प्रक्रिया के माध्यम से, पाठक संदर्भ से अर्थ का अनुमान लगाते हैं, जो समझ और भाषा अधिग्रहण में सहायता करता है।

इसलिए, कथन और कारण दोनों सत्य हैं, और कारण कथन की सही व्याख्या है।

व्यापक पठन का ध्यान आनंद प्राप्त करने और ग्रंथों की समग्र समझ पर केंद्रित होता है, विस्तृत विश्लेषण या विशिष्ट अधिगम लक्ष्यों पर नहीं।

Key Points

• व्यापक पठन में आमतौर पर आनंद, सामान्य समझ और समग्र भाषा प्रदर्शन के लिए बड़ी मात्रा में ग्रंथों को पढ़ना शामिल होता है, बिना किसी विशिष्ट विवरण या सटीकता पर विशेष रूप से ध्यान केंद्रित किए।
• यह प्रत्येक विवरण के सावधानीपूर्वक विश्लेषण के बजाय प्रवाह, समझ और पढ़ने के प्रति प्रेम विकसित करने के बारे में अधिक है।
• व्यापक पठन सामान्य समझ, आनंद, विश्राम और शब्दावली विकास को बढ़ावा देने के अपने लक्ष्यों के साथ संरेखित होता है।

इसलिए, 'विस्तार से और सटीकता से पढ़ना' व्यापक पठन से जुड़ा होने की सबसे कम संभावना है।

Hint

• गहन पठन का अर्थ है विस्तार से और सटीकता से पढ़ना। यह एक विशिष्ट अधिगम उद्देश्य के साथ पाठ को पूरी तरह से विस्तार से पढ़ने पर जोर देता है जो पढ़ने की समझ और आलोचनात्मक सोच कौशल को बढ़ाता है।

Language skills are necessary for effective communication in any environment and to interact with others. The four basic language skills and their natural order are listening-speaking-reading-writing. 

• Reading skill is an active skill that includes perception, recognition, association, understanding, organization, and finding meaning. It is a process of looking at a series of written words/symbols and getting meaning from them.
• Reading sub-skill refers to the well-planned reading approach which helps the learners to comprehend and perceive the meaning of the text effectively. There are different kinds of reading sub-skill including Intensive, Extensive, Scanning, etc.
