I can �t think pof anything for number one except questions to answer. 
 
For number two I �d say a simple TRUE/FALSE activity would do, provided you include the option "NOT IN THE TEXT".
 
Number three:  giving words and asking the students to find words with similar meanings in the text. For example - if there is the word velocity in the text, ask them to find a word that means about the same as speed.

what  about classifying  or  following  direction to discover places  for number one 
 
for number two  choose or  see picture  and  complete sentences what  do you think 
 
number three : fill in gap  related to  this skill

Yes, for number one, but not for every kind of text, only for texts about places and directions.
 
I don �t know how you can choose pictures or complete sentences to show that some informaion is not stated in the text.
 
You could fill in gaps to show you know the meaning of a word, but it takes much more work to prepare such an exercise. In the same way, you could also choose the right picture for this or the right statement - from let �s say three or four statement of which only one is correct.

well. I mean  after students have read the text I will asked them to choose the correct answer from 3 or 4 alternative . or giving the  picture with the  text  and asking them to complete  a text .
 
true / false is followed the  determining the truth of statement  skill not understanding the information not explicit stated .
 
  so fill in gaps followed  understanding the information is not explicit stated
