Some people try to improve their reading ability by reading websites like CNN or by reading magazines like TIME magazine, or English language newspapers. Generally speaking, newspapers, magazines and CNN are NOT good for beginning to intermediate students of English.
Some students try to learn English by sitting down and "studying" a newspaper or a magazine article. They read all the way through it, then underline all the words and phrases that they don't understand. The problem with this, however, is that newspapers and magazines are not designed for people who are learning the language. They are the "junk food" of literature...designed to be read fast, and then thrown away. In your own native language, do you sit down and "study" the newspaper for one or two hours every day? Probably not...and the people who write and edit for newspapers understand this. But some students try, and they discover a lot of difficult words and phrases, and they get frustrated and give up.
One way that you can improve your reading ability is to say to yourself, "Don't worry if I don't know every word; understanding the main idea is the important thing." Even native speakers, when we read a newspaper story or a magazine story, we will usually see one or two words or expressions that we are not exactly sure of. But we learn by context: we guess the meaning of the words by the situation we find them in.
So, read an article...underline all the words you don't know...but use your dictionary to check only THREE of the words. Then throw the article away. And do it again, and again, every day, for a year. At the end of the year, you will learn nearly 900 to 1000 new words.
