Answer:

The most frequent reading strategies I use are summarizing and questioning. Summarizing represents a reading strategy where a person interprets the text by using his/her own words, different from those which are used in an original text.

On the other hand, questioning represents a reading strategy where the student learns through making questions about the text and seeks the answers in the text.

I would say that interacting with a text means analyzing the text actively, in order to understand what we have read.

I think my reading strategies help me interact with a text on many different levels. For example, when I use summarizing, I interact with a text by reinterpreting it by using my own words, so I could say it brings me the opportunity to show that I'm capable of understanding the reading material and that I've paid attention to all the important segments.

When I use questioning, I involve with a text by asking myself questions that are helping me to fill the gaps in my knowledge and understand parts of the text where I was confused or inattentive.
