(You may have mastered all the new words and the useful phrases
or expressions and understood every sentence of the text, but
that is not enough, for that only means you have understood
the text at linguistic level. A deeper understanding of the
text also involves the reader's understanding of the text at
discourse level, which requires the reader to get to know how
the text is organized or structured when the author develops
his text in more than one paragraph. It is advisable to divide
the text into a few parts according to the author's arrangement
of his different ideas. The division of the text can tell you
how the different paragraphs are related to each other and bring
you a clear picture of the structure of the text. The following
outline of the text you've just learned is a reference for you.
