Tom [10]

Answer:

Active Reading

Explanation:

What is Active Reading?

Active reading occurs when pupils actively participate in the reading of a material. Active reading is more than just reading text in black and white and then answering questions. When you, as the instructor, get your pupils interested in what they are reading, they are more likely to better comprehend the meaning inside the text.

Active reading methods that are effective are process-oriented, customized, purposeful, and adaptable. Active reading techniques should be chosen and used based on the type of content as well as the reader's learning style and reading goal. Active reading helps readers maintain concentration and engagement, improves comprehension and retention, and produces a visual record of the reading experience and key information in a book.

What are the method of active reading?

  1. <u>Handwrite notes</u> - Highlighting and underlining a text while reading allows readers to stay engaged with the content and absorb it on a deeper level. During the act of reading, readers record responses to the text and scribble thoughts and personal notes in the margins.
  2. <u>Recapping</u> - Before attempting to read, readers examine the reading material to become acquainted with the subject and arrangement. This makes reading simpler, quicker, and more successful as a learning tool.
  3. <u>Measuring Comprehension</u> - Readers identify once they do not grasp sections of a material and take the required procedures to restore sense. Monitoring involves asking questions to clarify if anything remains unclear, rereading if there is some confusion, seeking for solutions, and adjusting reading method to grasp content.
  4. <u>Scanning</u> - entails reviewing content fast in order to acquire a general understanding of the material without reading everything.

Describe the interaction between the Ming Dynasty and the Portuguese between 1513 and 1537.
yaroslaw [1]

Portugal established trading activities in China in 1513 when Jorge Alvares arrived.

In 1517 the King sent a mission and created a trade center at Nei Lingding.

Portugal and Ming Dynasty relationship gradually expanded but was deteriorated when Simão de Andrade arrived at Guangzhou in 1519. He violated their customs and laws, so Chinese people reacted by killing several Portuguese in the streets.

In 1521 the Emperor Zhengde died and the Ming Court lost interest in having relations with foreign countries.

There were two battles:

In 1521, every Portuguese vessel was confiscated and Chinese defeated a Portuguese fleet at The First Battle of Tamao

In 1522, Martim Alfonso de Merlo Coutinho was sent to establish diplomatic relations but the Chinese defeated them at The Second Battle of Tamao.

The Chinese resisted any Portuguese attempt to return. But in 1535 Portuguese Port Traders were allowed to anchor ships in Macau´s harbors and they could trade. Finally, in 1537 the Portuguese establish a little Colony at Macau to be administered by Chinese authorities.
