The ten different types of reading are skimming, extensive, scanning, intensive, exploratory, analytic, narcotic, developmental, idea, and critical. Skim reading is similar to speed reading, in which the text is read quickly. Extensive reading is the way languages are learned; it improves one's vocabulary. Scanning is when the reader is looking for a particular idea or piece of information. Intensive reading is when a reader reads about something in great detail in order to complete certain tasks. Exploratory reading is similar to both skimming and analytic or close reading, it is similar to reading for pleasure. Analytic reading is reading a text to be able to analyze it afterward. Narcotic reading is reading to relieve oneself of troubles, such as would happen if ingesting a narcotic drug. Developmental reading is the process by which a child learns to read. Idea reading is reading to get the main idea of a text.
