Exercise 5
1. No , the passage doesn’t give me any information about Eleanor Roosevelt’s childhood.

in doing that.

Exercise 6
1) The encyclopedia entry adds some informations about Eleanor Roosevelt’s childhood and her family.
2) The two passages are similar for both are talking about the biography of an inspiring figure Eleanor
Roosevelt. But they are different for its contents. The first text didn’t tell us about the childhood life of
Eleanor . But the second text did.
3) If I were writing a report on Mrs. Roosevelt’s life , the encyclopedia entry would be a more useful
source for me , because usually the quality of the information in the internet is below what we found in
print.
4) If I were writing a report about US , The web page would be better to choose for it’s completed with
some pictures or maps.
5) It’s easier to skim rather than reading such a thick encyclopedia or looking on a web page , because
by skimming we don’t have to read all the words written that might probably get us confused. We just
need to find out the key words that answers the questions in our mind.
