The researcher used two different reading comprehension practice tests from the Longman Preparation Course for the TOEFL Test – The Paper Test (Phillips, 2003) as a pretest and posttest measure of his participants’ English L2 reading comprehension skill in order to determine whether the participants receiving the extensive reading treatment would demonstrate a greater improvement of their English L2 reading comprehension scores, after the end of the five week long treatment, vis-à-vis the comparison group. The reading comprehension section of the paper-based TOEFL has fifty questions but since the researcher had a limited amount of class time in which to administer his test instrument to his participants, he eliminated the last reading passage and the last ten questions of the test instrument. Thus the total number of question items on each test was forty.
