<p>Are there any books CC recommends for me to read to ace the passage based critical reading questions? I find difficulty with the longer ones because it's sometimes rather difficult to comprehend the flowery/difficult language. </p>
<p>Currently, i'm reading:
TIME magazines
The New Yorker</p>
<p>As you guys can tell, I'm not really reading too much. Are there any books/novels that I should read to brush up my CR skills?</p>
<p>After each chapter or magazine article ask yourself questions about the plot, authors purpose, and underline and look-up any word you don’t know.</p>
<p>Reading books and magazines does not help. Doing practice tests with real passages and DOING THE QUESTIONS (biggest thing) is the most beneficial. </p>
<p>Read books for fun; do practice tests to prepare for the SAT.</p>
