Forty students in secondary school-Zeney Elhedj Balkasem were randomly chosen in the 2nd semester of the academic year 2012/2013. The participants of the study consisted of two assigned groups receiving the pre-test for the reading comprehension. The prepared reading materials was taught based on the dense questioning strategy for the experimental group; while the control group was taught the same reading texts followed by questions about the text only. At the end of the experiment, the post-test was administered to both groups. The results revealed that there is a significant difference on the experimental group' reading comprehension; however, the strategy failed when we compare both control and experimental group scores on the post-test.
