  Look at the title, subtitle, and headings (or sections). Look at any photos and captions. What do you think the article will be about? Where would you read this type of article (e.g. in a textbook, in a newspaper)?
  

• 
  What type of article is it?
  
• 
  Who is the intended audience?
  
• 
  What can you learn from this article?
