This is great advice. Even after becoming familiar with an area, I read some authors and get swamped by unexplained terminology.
Another simple trick is to look at the journal title. Articles in journals like "Trends in... " tend to be written for a broader audience, so often have clearer introductions. In general, the less specific the journal, the better the introduction will be for newcomers.
(Be aware that journals with lower word limits / shorter articles may have less rigorous introductions, for better or worse)
