Answer and explanation

* Why should society also study reading comprehension?

The content of the 'social studies' textbook becomes deeper and more diverse as the grade level increases.
So, ‘society’ can feel increasingly difficult and overwhelming.
There are so many new vocabulary and concepts that the textbook is hard to read.
To study 'society' easily, properly, and enjoyably, you need to first learn important concepts and vocabulary, and then practice reading comprehension.

Reading practice isn't just for Korean language subjects.
'Society' also requires reading practice, as it contains many unfamiliar concepts and vocabulary to read.
With the step-by-step reading practice of 『Reading Comes First in Society』, the difficult subject of 'Society' becomes easy and fun!

* Why should society learn concepts and vocabulary?

'Society' is a subject that covers all the phenomena we see, hear, and experience every day.
That's why it's sometimes said that it's a subject that requires memorization, with a lot of concepts to know.
But if you try to memorize it blindly, the concepts get mixed up and it just feels difficult.
If you group together the numerous concepts covered in 'society' and look at them as a lump, you will be able to grasp the concepts more firmly and remember them in an organized manner without having to memorize them.

‘Society’ is not a complicated subject to memorize.
Even unfamiliar vocabulary and subject matter can be easily understood if you just grasp the concepts.
With the systematic concept learning of 『Reading Comes First in Society』, the previously daunting subject of 'society' becomes understandable on its own!
