Rudger,
Do you pick out trigger words when you preview? If you pick out trigger words, then you can form your mind probing questions around the trigger words.

For example: You have a trigger word NEOLITIHC. You could then formulate this mind probing question: What kinds of stone implements were used in the Neolithic age? Just start thinking about that 1 trigger word & ask questions that interest <<< you <<<.

Chances are that the questions that interest you are the same questions that the teacher will also ask. Just use common sense & your interest.

Thing about PhRing is that you are encouraged to take control of your reading material. This means that you have to go from---What does the teacher want? ---to---What do i know about Neolithic man? What do i want to know about him? What interests me here?

Ask a few simple interesting questions & then just flip to the chapter & LOOK only for the answers to YOUR questions.

Soon you begin to get a feel for the material & it then gels.

Good Luck...if this is not clear enuff, please ask again.

There really isn't a right or wrong mind probe question. The point is for you to get actively involved in reading. You can ask specific questions about what something means or you can ask personal questions too that only relate to you. If you write it, it's good.
