This is a test of some of the skills involved in understanding what you read. The passages in this test
come from a variety of works, both literary and informational. Each passage is followed by a number
of questions.
The passages begin with an introduction presenting information that may be helpful as you read the
selection. After you have read a passage, go on to the questions that follow. You may refer to a passage as often as
necessary.
Work as quickly as you can without becoming careless. Do not spend too much time on any question
that is difficult for you to answer. Instead, skip it and return to it later if you have time. Try to answer
every question even if you have to guess.
