The research work under consideration contributes to the modelling of text comprehension strategies. High potential of such researches is determined by their scholarly and applied significance as, obviously, effectiveness of the modern reader is in relation to the individual set of the reader’s strategies. The article presents the findings of the experimental investigation into the reception of a text for English learners. The two test groups included senior school students and university students, the both are native speakers of Russian. While perceiving the text the test groups faced a “double communicative barrier” as the stimulus text contained gaps and the three options to fill the gaps were all incorrect. The language of the text was another barrier for non-English speakers. The test groups had to explain their choice of the option, these verbal comments served as the study data for further modelling of comprehension text strategies in two test groups differentiated by age and language competence. The research resulted in revealing interpretative strategies, detecting their nucleus and periphery, specifying strategies for each test group. The strategies modelled are mechanical re - coding (translation), re-phrasing, loose interpretation and logical analysis of linguistic forms.
