CHAPTER 1

The Problem

Introduction

Several years ago regarding was

regarded as a
leisure time activity, largely for enjoyement.
Now a days
rapid change, the knowledge explosion and
tremendous
advances in science and technology call for
efficient
reading. It has been said that with milions of
good books in the libraries, a good reader
could hardly read one percent of these during
his lifetime. Todays faster living means faster
learning?

How do you move eyes when you

read? You would
say: from left to right, continuously along the
line: then
from top to botton following lines on the
printed page.
Practically all Philippine languages are written
in such a
 Way that one is forced to read in his
manner. English,
the language in which almost all our reading
materials in school are written (Gregorio,
Herman C. 2003)

Villamin (1999) said that reading is the

key that
Unlocks the door to the world of enlighten
and
enjoyement, the basic tool for learning in the
content
fields. In our daily lives, 80 percent of the
things he does
involve reading. He read street signs and
advertisements,
news in restaurant, recipes from cookbooks,
how to do
things, etc.

Who to find time to read? If one is

average readers,
 he can readers, he can read an average book
at the rate
of three hundred words a minute. You cannot
maintain
the average , however, unless you read
regularly every
day, nor you can attain that speed with hard
books in
science, mathematics, business or any subject
that is new
or unfamiliar to you.

According to Baracero (2003 ) reading

is to
process of getting meaning from the book
and bringing
into it. Getting meaning from the book means
knowing the
authors point of view to make the whole
reading materials
understandable.
 Reading is necessary to all, especially
to the
student in acquiring knowledge and still in all
subjects.
These are the skills which a student could
not take
advantage on the information carried by any
materials.

study, the
researcher aimed to find out the Reading
Comprehension
