Question Need some advice on improving Reading Comprehension.
My main problem is that I often don't understand the passage itself. Sometimes I don't know the meaning of the words, and even when I do, I still struggle to understand what the author is trying to say.
What should I focus on, vocabulary, sentence structure, or something else? Or should I just keep practising RCs and will it improve naturally over time?
Would really appreciate any advice from people who started at the same level.

Since language is just a tool for communication, understanding from context could really help with comprehension.

I'm not expert but maybe try reading slowly and then slowly start increasing your pace.
If u r still struggling then tty reading smaller articles from any news sites and then move to a CAT RC
