Default parenthesis and reading aloud

There is a passage in a JHS text book here and in part of the passage there is a sentence something like this:

"Braille is a system made of up six dots (see figure 1), but it's a little different in Japan."

I'm asked to read the paragraph aloud and students repeat.

I skipped the '(see figure 1)' part when reading aloud, but on the students' CD, the narrator reads that portion.

I know they forced that in to cover the language and they want the students to remember it, but should we read it when we read aloud?
