The meaning of the English word "read" and how you use it

You can read silently to get information or you can read silently for pleasure .

When you learn to read a text , smoothly and clearly , you become more confident as a speaker .

And because you 're reading more slowly than you would if you read silently ,

I just read and like look out the window .

I read my text aloud to make sure it sounds good .

When I read my own writing , I 'm checking for mistakes

which reminded me of a hilarious and aptly timed article I read on The Onion recently ,

Dismissed from drama school with a note that read ,

Today I read a book .

Step One : Determine what the table or graph represents , read the description in the passage , and if you can , put it into your own words .

switch practice courts , read in silence and with music on .

Read . Read .

I am standing on all the stories I 've ever read , I am growing into someone new .

Oh , that 's all you 've got ? Come on Elliot , You 've read books on this .

I don't have one , but I 've read about them in books .
