Answer:

It’s a good idea before reading a long report, such as a government document, to scan headings, because they serve as road signs to guide you.

Explanation:

Headings are used as a presentation of the main idea of each one of the sections in a written work, they are used in long readings since they help reader identify each section and its content without having to read part that may not be necessary at the moment, then the correct word to complete the sentence is headings.

I think it is headings because they inform the reader what they are about to read.

Read the excerpt from Samuel Johnson's preface to A Dictionary of the English Language.
Marta_Voda [28]
<span>The excerpt suggests that Johnson’s work is significant because it reflects an exhaustive study of its words.
In the excerpt above, Johnson says that he used many methods in order to compile this dictionary - he read a lot of books, used his experience, and used many analogies for readers to connect words and their meanings on their own. A is incorrect because that's not the point of a dictionary; B is incorrect because he doesn't even mention other dictionaries; D is incorrect because a dictionary cannot only list obscure words.
