1. What comprehension means to you is more important rather than solving it.

As I mention to you earlier that reading comprehension is all about reading the passages and after reading what you understand that is known as comprehension, meanwhile, many of us have the misconception related to it that unseen passages and comprehension are treated differently by the expert but both work similarly, 

Both raised questions after reading it and have the same way of answering them moreover asking questions makes them different.

Questions depend based on the platform where is it going to ask? 
The comprehension test is most frequently the question asked in various competitive exams such as banking recruitment tests, the staff selection commission recruitment tests ( CHSL, MTS, SSS GGL ) CLAT, CAT, CSAT, and many more entrance exams.


2. Effective reading builds strong enough to figure out the passage.

Passage solving is the most difficult assignment for the students because they don't waste time on such a task where they get heckled themselves, many of them think wasting of time to solve it, however, effective reading and the right approach make it easy.

Making your reading effective means that you at least spend half an hour every day reading articles, stories, and magazines it depending on your interest in reading, this method gradually enhances the understanding while reading the passages.


3. Vocabularies play a crucial role but more importantly how to deal with anonymous words.
In Comprehension and passages, vocabulary plays a crucial role to understand, a lack of vocabulary makes you discomfort, and the only thing that makes you comfortable is a strong vocabulary that not only makes you comprehend the passages but it helps to find out the actual meaning of a particular word.

Some of the questions are based on vocabulary, finding out the meaning of the highlighted words according to the passage, to solve such a type of question, you have to read two or three lines before the word and two or three lines after the word, this trick helps you to figure out of the meaning of the word.


4. Give the primacy of the statements,
The author of the passage always throws down the primacy of the statements that are the clue to answering the questions related to the passage.

First, underline the statements which you think those underline the statement help you to puzzle out the questions.


5. Knowledge is the key to answering the questions.

A journey of thousand miles begins with a single step!
The habit of getting knowledge always makes you different from others, knowledge is the only key factor to understand the passage and helps you get the right answer.

Aware of yourselves what is happening in the world and categorizing what is important to have and note down, this addiction makes the master of anything.


6. Don't be imaginative.
While answering the questions of the passage, one thing you should avoid is, don't be imaginative, the answer comes from facts and current or what have you comprehended from the passage.

Sidestep is the answer to the power of imagination.

These points make you able to solve the heckles of the passages but keep in mind that Rome wasn't built in a day, only practice is the key to success.
