Abstract
In studying, second language learners often encounter two problems in the process of Chinese reading. One is unable to summarize the central idea of the article; second, the correct rate of reading and answering questions is low. Therefore, teachers should suggest interesting essay topics for students,
including providing them suitable learning methods for each subject. This research was relevant to arranging the training of Chinese reading though a live method based on the 5W1H analysis with thinking maps with the objective of supporting secondary level students in finding the main points of the provided essay, as well as developing the skills of answering questions from their reading. This study had 74 students in total. After the students applied the thinking maps, they could undertake descriptive writing for the main contents and verbally brief the main ideas. The examination accounted for a total of 10 marks. The average quantitative result of pre-learning was 6.56, and post-learning was 8.77. Accordingly, this teaching method was able to increase the efficiency of Chinese reading. In addition, the standard deviation for pre-learning was 7.37, and post-learning was 4.43. From the research outcome, the regarded teaching method could reduce the level of the reading skill inequality among students.
