How do I use the New York Times Articles to increase my reading comprehension?

<p>I get about mid 600's for my CR, the majority of my mistakes on not the sentence completions, but the Inference questions; I heard many people said to read the New York Times online, but I have no where idea to start. Are there any specific articles or genres I should read?</p>

<p>Read whatever you enjoy. Most of the NYT articles are pretty good in terms of writing and vocabulary, though Op-Ed articles might help the most. Think about them while/after you read. What is the author saying? What can be inferred? How does it relate to other issues? Do you agree or disagree? Why or why not? Be sure to immediately look up words you don’t know.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>
