Predicting
To predict is to guess what comes next. It helps us understand what kinds of books or articles we are reading, and where we might find information.
When we read an article, we can often predict the content from the title. We can also use the headings in an article to predict the main idea of each part. Headings are the titles of the different parts. Often, they are in bold.
