The difficulty and complexity of the text and the needs of the students determine the mode of reading and level of support needed. This takes into account the students' abilities, but also incorporates the text itself and the supports necessary to ensure comprehension. Vocabulary may be one aspect considered, but it is not the only determining factor. Previous difficulty with the text is less important than the current needs and abilities of the students.
