During my first seven semesters as a medical student at Gadjah Mada University in Indonesia，I spent most of my time studying and in classrooms.I rarely spoke with real patients in a hospital setting.Then last year I started visiting the neurology(神经)ward at Dr.Sardjito Hospital.I was gathering data for my paper.At the hospital I would review the medical records of newly admitted stroke patients，then interview them to find out if they were taking the pill.

One cold，rainy evening last October，I was in the neurology ward desperately“hunting”for the final three patients I needed to complete my study.The records showed that there was a 43-year-old stroke patient，whom I will call Ms A，in the ward.Holding a patient questionnaire，I went into her room.I asked how she was doing.She softly replied that she was getting better but the left side of her body was still weak.After I finished the questionnaire，I prepared to leave so I could go through more medical records.Before I could stand up，Ms A started making conversation，asking where I was from and why I was working so late in the evening.I was surprised someone in her condition would want to talk.

Ms A started talking about herself.She told me she had three children in primary school，who were staying with a neighbor.Her husband died a year ago and she is the sole breadwinner of her family.I didn't know what to say.I just sat quietly while she talked.Without realizing it，I had begun holding Ms A's hand.

The conversation went on like this for about 20 minutes.A few days later，when I returned to the ward，I discovered that Ms A had_been_discharged as her condition had improved.

Ms A taught me one of the most important lessons a doctor can learn.Sometimes patients do not need expensive medicine or state-of-the-art technology.They just need someone with the patience and willingness to lend an ear and spare a little of their time.

Three Strategies to Enhance Your Reading

and Learning Comprehension

Reading comprehension strategies help a lot in developing your vocabulary and power of analysis.__1__

☆Role-playing.

It allows you to gain a better viewpoint over the text you have just read.It also gives you the freedom and flexibility to show your own understanding of the reading material.However，this kind of strategy does not apply to all texts.__2__

☆Check whether you have understood the material.

A lot of teachers like to hold question and answer sections at the end of the lesson to see how much a student actually remembers and understands.__3__Closed questions are those immediately answerable by “yes” or “no”．This will give the teacher a quick evaluation of how much the student has gathered from the lesson.Open-ended questions，on the other hand，are an excellent weigh of the student's reading comprehension.Questions that begin with “how” and “why” often push the student to details.☆__4__

By tapping into what you've already known，you can make it easier to relate to what you're reading now.This strategy requires you to be up-to-date as well.Or at least，be a quick thinker.After all，you're expected to take advantage of any opportunity you have to tie one idea to another.__5__

A．Develop a good reading habit.

B．Make use of prior knowledge or experience.

C．These questions should be both closed and open-ended.

D．With these strategies，you'll be able to learn better and help others as well.

E．The students should learn to ask themselves different questions after class.

F．Teachers often use different reading comprehension strategies to help their students understand the lesson.

G．I suggest this reading comprehension strategy be limited to texts with actual characters and story plots.
