Method to read passages-take it or move on?

For the long passages I usually just do the questions about words in context or quotes first. I don’t read the whole passage, but just the pertinent parts required for these questions. Then I do the “big picture” questions the last by seeing if I could just do them without reading the whole thing, if not I quickly skim through the passage one last time and answer all of them. It’s easier to comprehend if you read the passage after having done the ‘small picture’ questions.
