When reading this part of the ppt, I thought of word order especially when I read the phrase, understanding relations between sentences and paragraphs. As in, if a student can understand the place of different parts of speech in a sentence he can further understand sentences in a paragraph and paragraphs in an essay. So, he firstly reads at a grammatical-logical level, and afterwards the meaning of words has to be deduced from context or the teacher hands Ss a list of opposites. I think that these 2 activities should accompany a reading comprehension text.
The way we read depends on the purpose. We sometimes read the beginning and the ending of a sentence or only several words on a page, if what we are interested in is information. There is also intensive reading, when we focus on author's intention and figurative meaning and collocations.

These have a totally different usage in the novel - the fire doesn t keep the boys warm but it functions as a signal fire, a means of getting back to civilization, escape savagery - the jungle.
