very important point the compound effect of reading newspaper how newspaper will impact your life and your english fluency also so come on friends and jump in well as i said newspaper reading is a very important habit which you should inculcate but many of us don't know how to read a newspaper so as i said in this video i am going to explain you how to read a newspaper see we are going to go through these three steps first of all i will tell you why to read the newspaper second i'll tell you which newspaper to read next i'll tell you how to read a newspaper and last as i said the compound effect watch this video till end and this point is very crucial the compound effect of reading okay so here i go the first point is why to read newspaper see here newspaper helps you to build your sentence structure many of you believe i know that your sentence structure will be formed by reading grammar books but grammar will only explain you the rule once you know the rule it's sufficient once you know okay this is the rule in which it works but actually how the rule is applied in real life in practical life will be understood when you read newspaper therefore when you read a newspaper you will understand how to form sentences and this will help you not only in fluency i mean in speaking english this will also help you in written english as well but this does not mean that today you are reading and tomorrow you will be able to improve your fluency and your writing skills it's not going to happen in this way that's the reason why the compound effect is there which i'm going to explain you second reason is already campaign development will happen if you read newspaper say fulfill speaking if you want to speak if you want to uh you know crack any entrance exam vocabulary is there vocabulary is important part integral part that they will check your vocabulary and to develop vocabulary you have to read from all walks of life and newspaper is the only place where you can get all these things together i mean you can read news about sports about politics about general things about you know about international affairs about trade about commerce everything is included in newspaper so newspaper is the rich source of your vocabulary it's one more advantage of reading newspaper and last point as i said is general knowledge and current affairs as i said this is going to help you in your influence exams you are preparing for ssb you are preparing for civil services you are preparing for ielts and most important if you want to go on the stage and if you want to speak your general knowledge plays a very vital role you must have good general knowledge you must know what's happening around you so newspaper is going to help you in that regard in that aspect also so these are the three benefits of reading newspaper let us move ahead and i'll tell you which news to read okay which newspaper to read i will not speak much about it uh you can go with times of india you can go with indian express you can go with the hindu but if you are preparing for upsc or all such exams go with the hindu or you can go with indian express or you can go with economic times but if you are a regular reader i mean if you are a first time reader then first start with times of india it is somewhat easy to read and understand okay now uh which news to read see here the first thing is as i said that if you are a first reader first time reader i mean if you don't read regularly i mean that's the reason why you're watching my video you i'm sure that you are the first time readers read simple everyday news simple everyday news why first of all if you read difficult news if you read an editorial there will be lot of new words there and you have to stop you have to jot down the words or to find the meaning of those words it will be very hectic it will be very cumbersome for you and you will feel you will believe that reading newspaper is not my cup or coffee of tea so don't do that another thing is you know everyday news why because as i said like while speaking while writing while reading we need everyday vocabulary we need those words which are used in everyday life i mean there are thousands and lacks of words in english we don't need all the words we need few words which words which are used in everyday conversation every day discussions every day reading everyday reading everyday writing also so these words are there in newspapers so read i will show you the next slide is about that i will exactly show you the news it should cover all the topics as i said like food and all and all i'm just going to take you there and i'm going to actually make you read now let us come here and i will actually make you read i'm sure that you can see this otherwise i will tell my editor to focus on this okay so that you can read so let us move ahead and actually we will read see this is the news from times of india i have scanned it and i put it here and in this news you will get some easy words of course this news is not for your general knowledge your knowledge will not enhance but your common sense will go up let us see here i will show you how to read and how to write so here we go all is to spread awareness to prevent thefts during diwali now see here this is the first word awareness now you have to go to the dictionary you can go to google you can search this word or you can say the word loudly awareness now what is the meaning of awareness meaning of awareness is knowledgeable you you must have knowledge you you have some perceptions that is the meaning of the word awareness most of you may know this word just i'm giving an example this is an easy word now how to write this word look at this format you have to write down these words in this format first write down the word write down the meaning of the word in english next step is understand the pronunciation of the word you can use google for that after understanding the pronunciation the next step is understand what are the similar word for that synonyms for that next understand the antinorms for that what is opposite word and last you can write this entire sentence means how the word is used in a sentence very easy but somewhat i can say lengthy way see what happens when you write one word you get many words similar to that and opposite to that so what will happen is your vocabulary will enrich it will grow very fast getting my point it will grow very fast so though this method is somewhat tedious but it is going to help you a lot in the long term okay well you may feel like who's going to do this it's all it's very boring well see i can tell you one thing you have to pay the price for this there is no shortcut for this vocabulary and all i mean uh this is not as fun as watching any uh netflix video or any any uh funny youtube video this is boring this needs to be focused this needs attention this needs uh discipline and i'm sure all of you have that if you are not if you are my subscriber definitely uh discipline and focus is in you because i speak a lot about discipline and consistency let us move ahead i will as i said i will actually tell you how to read okay now one more thing one more tip i want to give you try to read aloud like i'm going to read aloud try to read it loud this will help you to turn your mouth muscles if you read aloud loudly okay so here i go the city police will be spreading awareness among citizens about the precautionary measures see the word precautionary measures you can write down this phrase a phrase is also fine precautionary majors now if you go and refer a dictionary precautionary majors means majors which you should take before anything happens precautionary measures you can write down as per the format i told you to be taken to avoid incidence of that's new word if you don't know burglary robberies on the backdrop of on the backdrop of diwali now these words are new for you thefts it's a new word now what is meaning of theft theft means to steal something from someone anywhere you can do that not you that a thief can do that burglaries in this case a person breaks out in a home in someone's residential complex home we can call him as a trespasser he will come he will break he will loot even he will attack the person physically and he will go regularly and robberies robberies are like um bank robberies they go and steal the money so in this way go ahead and refer the dictionary and you will get all these three four you can get the difference of difference between these three words on the backdrop of backdrop of means what on the backdrop of means because diwali is coming now okay so means what because diwali is coming on the backdrop of diwali all of you got it okay now well uh nilesh uh mayanker a senior police inspector of the opennagar police station said cases of burglaries and other property offenses increased during the festive period as people generally carry cash so guys these are the words this is the way you have to read while reading while i was reading this i found out that these words are very common and very rarely any new word is there but one more word i found out was here okay this is the word frisk i don't know whether you can say it or not at the time but i will ask my editor to zoom here frisk to frisk ben smart a frisking is done at the airports or it is done by police officials to check you physically whether you are carrying any drugs or any arms or anything illegal that is frisk this is the word well apart from this well i don't feel anything new here all the words are common but still i mean if you don't know the word complaint was loud lodged or if you don't know the word for for example let me check uh huh one more word was there uh yeah here it is a bike born person a bike born person means not a bike born person means a person who was riding the bike it's called as my one person so guys in this way you have to select easy news first once you select easy news then you can go with editorials and all these links okay so this is the way you have to read well hope all of you uh understood what how to do this and let us go ahead as per my promise i am going to explain you the compound effect of reading look at here let us take one one raise to 365 answer will be of course one suppose i increase 1 by 0.1 only 365 is as it is so what do you think how much will it increase your answer you may feel like it may go up by 1.2 1.5 some of you will sit at one point something something something but no it's not the case answer will be approximately 37. can you imagine this now this is 0.1 this 0.1 this 0.1 is the small change which you are doing in you means you are reading newspaper every day 20 minutes 30 minutes you you're writing the words but you are doing it every day and suppose there is someone who is not doing anything and he is getting bad he is getting worse 365. okay what will be the answer here the answer will be of course lesser than one let us take like around now if i want to show this in terms of a graph i can i can draw one graph one line fine and here suppose you are and on this axis and this axis here it is right one year okay and here changes positive or negative changes see here is the one year right so the person who is reading everyday newspaper initially he will not see any change and most of the people will quit from here this can be around two or three months but after that slowly the change will be visible and suddenly the change will be very high but most of the people as i said they do not have the patience and they quit here let us go here and see a person who is getting worse towards worst he will also get worse and he will come down here worse means what he is not reading anything he is not working on his communication not working on his vocabulary this is the magical effect of reading every day so when you are reading a newspaper read it every day and see that you are having the patience it is going to take some time and the best tip i'll give you to have patience is you forget you forget your english you enjoy the newspaper when you enjoy the newspaper you can continue that for a long period okay so guys this is all about reading newspaper i'm sure that you are going to do this this video will be helpful to you in the comments in the comments right which newspaper you read i want to know which newspaper you read and how long you read these two points i want to know from you let us make this
