What always happens during active reading is A. The reader is engaged with and thinking about a text.

The definition of active reading is reading something with attention, engagement, and determination to understand it. When the reader engages critically with the content, asking himself or herself assessment questions during his or her reading, writing down key-words and pondering about the content, he or she is reading actively. It consists of a comprehension technique that necessarily depends on the reader's engagement with the text. Therefore, the correct answer is A.

The correct answer couldn't be B. The reader is reading a piece of literature aloud. Reading aloud is one of the techniques used in active reading, but it isn't necessary and it doesn't always happen during active reading. Some people use this technique in order to focus better. Some people prefer reading silently, but use other techniques to engage with the reading. So, the correct answer couldn't be B.

The correct answer couldn't be C. The reader is thinking about an author's other works. Collecting research information and data from an author's other works can help the reader engage and have more ideas about the text he or she is reading, but it is not something necessary to read actively, therefore, it doesn't happen always during active reading. Thus, the correct answer couldn't be C.

The correct answer couldn't be D. The reader is summarizing a text. Summarizing a text is just another technique used to engage with the text. There are many different techniques used to read actively, and summarizing is one of them. Not everybody uses the same techniques because everyone's learning process is different. They don't have to use the same techniques, as long as they engage and read critically in order to understand the content of what they are reading. Hence, the correct answer couldn't be D.
