The objective is to be able to understand and retain what has been read. Since the text for reading is about automated cars, the tutor can speak to the learners about other spheres in our lives where we perceive or use new technology. The meanings of the highlighted words can be discussed before they do their silent reading. In the worksheet they are asked to check the statements for being true or false and to match the phrases to make sentences the way they are in the newspaper article. They compare their work within their groups and the questions at the end can be taken up for a class discussion.
