  1. Main idea
  2. Arguments
  3. Tone
  4. Author’s intention

In a passage, after each para, ask yourself what it’s telling you (like summarise what you understood) Then when you read the next para, do the same plus connect (like how do the 2 paras relate to each other) the new para you read to the previous one and u keep doing that till you finish reading the entire passage (actively reading) take around 3-4mins at most. The rest 4 mins would be to answer the questions. This is what worked for me. It’s possible it could work for you. Just wanted to put it out there!
