Create a title that reflects the main theme. Structural Analysis

Most 6th-grade texts are either Artistic (художественный) or Publicistic (публицистический).

Break the text into logical parts (micro-themes) and name each part. Linguistic Features

Look for words that are repeated frequently; these are usually the "keys" to the text's theme.

If your workbook has questions about the "expressive means" (средства выразительности), look for metaphors or epithets that make the language vivid.

Identify why commas are used—often for items in a list, introductory words, or complex sentences.

What the text is about (e.g., a nature description or a historical event).
