Developing Reading Skills: Intermediate is designed for adults who want to strengthen their reading skills for academic, personal, or career purposes. These materials have been tested successfully with both native and non-native speakers of English. Developing Reading Skills: Intermediate is a predecessor to Developing Reading Skills: Advanced and Expanding Reading Skills: Advanced. This text also emphasizes guided reading practice and the development of reading speed. The readings come from current non-fiction, magazine, and newspaper writing, and they cover a wide subject range in order to expose the reader to the content demands of different types of reading material. We have tried to select the readings with great care so that we would have to make as few changes as possible from the original text. We have occasionally simplified structures and vocabulary in the earlier readings. In later readings, we have used margin glosses to help the reader out. The readings are arranged in order of difficulty, and the exercises deliberately build upon vocabulary and structures introduced in earlier chapters. We recommend that the chapters be presented in the given order if possible.
