This may be in either one or both stages of the written exams. Candidates therefore must build both the skill of reading and comprehending what they read, as well as knowing the latest important happenings in the world. The best way to combine this is newspaper reading. This blog will break down the process of how to read the newspaper in a way that will help your bank exam preparation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Read_Newspaper_for_Bank_Exams_%E2%80%93_Steps\"><\/span><strong>How to Read Newspaper for Bank Exams &#8211; Steps<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The first thing to remember is that you must select a good source. The Hindu is a reputed paper that covers all relevant issues and also has editorial pages. These editorial pages are a great source of vocabulary, RC, idioms, and phrases<span style=\"color: #000000;\">. <\/span>Here&#8217;s how to read the newspaper effectively:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Take the physical copy of a newspaper for bank exams (rec. The Hindu, Indian Express, or Economic Times) and a pen<\/span><\/li><li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Go through the newspaper with the pen in your hand and highlight every newspaper article that belongs to one (or more) of the following categories:<\/span> <ul><li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">National News<\/span><\/li><li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">International News<\/span><\/li><li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Sports News<\/span><\/li><li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Science and Technology News<\/span><\/li><li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Economic News<\/span> <\/li><\/ul><\/li><li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Now, every newspaper article that you have highlighted will have to be analyzed by you. For this, you need to maintain a small notebook on which you shall write the details we provide.<\/span><\/li><li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Take one newspaper article among the ones you have marked (those are the only ones you will study), and write down the following in the notebook:<\/span> <ol><li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Title\/Headline<\/strong> of the newspaper article<\/span><\/li><li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>What?<\/strong> \u2013 What happened exactly?<\/span><\/li><li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Where?<\/strong> \u2013 Where do the effects of the incident\/event carry over? Is it a state or union territory or is it all of India? Where can the effects be felt?<\/span><\/li><li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>When?<\/strong> \u2013 When did the event take place? What is the date and time of the incident\/event happening? Try to be as specific as possible.<\/span><\/li><li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Why\/How?<\/strong> \u2013 What are the reasons behind the event? How did this event come to be? What brought this event up?<\/span><\/li><li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Important Figures<\/strong> \u2013 for example, if the inflation increased by 0.2% in this fiscal year, that figure is important. If the total budget allotted for railways is 40,000 crore, that figure is important as well.<\/span> <\/li><\/ol><\/li><li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Now, when you are revising for your exam, you will be focusing on your notes only. This way, you will not waste time at all and you will complete your revision more effectively.<\/span>&nbsp;<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Read_Newspaper_for_Bank_Exam_%E2%80%93_Sample\"><\/span><strong>How to Read Newspaper for Bank Exam &#8211; Sample<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">This process can be followed with a real newspaper article taken from a recommended newspaper for bank exams, The Hindu.
