Traditionally, English language learners have been prepared for reading through a focus on language knowledge , vocabulary usually , and sometimes structures .More recently , since the adaptation of the idea of reading as an interactive process, in which reading activities have been used to encourage learner to be active as they read, for exemple : student can be given activities which require them to do any of the following :follow the order of idea in the text : react to the opinions expressed; understand the information it contains; ask themselves questions; make notes .
There are just some of the activities now used by teachers and text books writers who believe that it might be useful to intervene in the reading process in some way. The reading lesson should aim to build learner’s abilities to engage in purposeful reading , to adopt a range of reading styles necessary for interacting successfully with authentic texts, and do develop critical awareness.

Firstly, many people believe that the use of reading could be something boredom but they do not know how important it is; Therefore, through the reading we can improve our fluency and at the same time, to acquire cultura knowledge. On the other hand, for teaching reading teachers will have to select interesting texts in which learners feel motivated to read texts of any kind of gender also, teachers should not use different texts in the classroom, because most of the learners have different level of comprehension. Whereas, using just one text the students can help each other at the moment of focusing on his/her reading.
