1. A student is reviewing a passage about the benefits of community gardens. The author
explains that community gardens provide fresh produce, create opportunities for neighbors
to work together, and transform unused land. Which statement best expresses the central
idea of the passage?
A. Community gardens require significant financial investment.
B. Community gardens provide several social and practical benefits to communities.
C. Most communities have large amounts of unused land.
D. Fresh produce is difficult for families to obtain.
The passage focuses on multiple benefits of community gardens rather than on one specific
feature. Therefore, B best states the central idea.
2. A passage states that a hospital introduced electronic medication records and
subsequently reduced medication errors by 18%. Which conclusion is best supported by
this information?
A. Electronic records can contribute to improved medication safety.
B. Electronic records eliminate all medication errors.
C. Medication errors are caused primarily by paper records.
D. Hospitals should immediately replace all existing systems.
The reported reduction supports the conclusion that electronic medication records may
improve medication safety, but it does not establish that they eliminate every error.
3. Read the statement: “Although the new recycling program initially received little
attention, participation increased substantially after the city placed collection bins in highly
visible locations.” What can the reader reasonably infer?
A. Residents opposed recycling.
B. The city discontinued the recycling program.
C. Convenience and visibility influenced participation.
D. Recycling programs are ineffective without advertising.
The increase in participation after bins became more visible suggests that accessibility and
visibility helped encourage residents to participate.
,4. Which organizational pattern would be most appropriate for a passage explaining how
to prepare a patient for a routine diagnostic procedure?
A. Cause and effect
B. Compare and contrast
C. Problem and solution
D. Sequence
Instructions for completing a procedure are most logically presented in chronological order,
making sequence the appropriate organizational pattern.
5. A passage states that a researcher observed 500 students and found that students who
regularly slept at least seven hours generally performed better on morning assessments.
Which statement is an example of evidence from the passage?
A. Students should always sleep eight hours.
B. Adequate sleep probably improves intelligence.
C. The researcher observed 500 students.
D. Schools should begin classes later.
The observation of 500 students is directly stated evidence. The other statements extend
beyond the information provided.
6. A writer argues that schools should provide more opportunities for physical activity
during the school day. Which evidence would best support the writer's argument?
A. Many students prefer indoor activities.
B. Research indicates regular physical activity can improve concentration and overall
health.
C. Some schools have large athletic fields.
D. Physical education classes vary in length.
Evidence linking physical activity with concentration and health directly supports the
argument for providing more opportunities for activity.
7. A paragraph begins by describing a city experiencing frequent flooding. It then explains
that officials constructed drainage channels, improved storm-water systems, and restored
wetlands. What organizational structure is primarily used?
A. Problem and solution
B. Chronological order
C. Compare and contrast
D. Description
The flooding represents the problem, while the infrastructure and environmental measures
represent proposed solutions.
, 8. A reader encounters the sentence, “The medication was remarkably efficacious in
reducing postoperative discomfort.” Based on context, what does “efficacious” most likely
mean?
A. Expensive
B. Temporary
C. Difficult to administer
D. Effective
The context indicates that the medication successfully reduced discomfort, so efficacious
means effective or capable of producing the desired result.
9. Which statement best describes the purpose of a concluding paragraph in an
informational passage?
A. Introduce an unrelated topic
B. Restate or synthesize the main ideas
C. Provide every detail omitted from the introduction
D. Present only a new argument
A conclusion typically brings the discussion together by reinforcing or synthesizing the
passage's principal ideas.
10. A researcher writes, “The survey included only students enrolled in one rural school.”
Why is this detail important when evaluating the study's conclusions?
A. It proves the survey was inaccurate.
B. It guarantees that the results apply nationally.
C. It may limit how broadly the findings can be generalized.
D. It shows that the students answered incorrectly.
Because the sample came from one rural school, the findings may not represent students
from different locations or populations.
11. A passage compares two methods of treating contaminated water. One method is
inexpensive but slow, while the other is faster but requires specialized equipment. What is
the author's primary purpose?
A. To entertain readers with a scientific story
B. To compare advantages and disadvantages of two methods
C. To prove that inexpensive methods are always superior
D. To explain the history of water treatment
The passage evaluates two methods by contrasting their characteristics, indicating a
compare-and-contrast purpose.
