10 MINUTES, 9 QUESTIONS

Turn to Section 2 of your answer sheet to answer the questions in this section.

_DIRECTIONS_.

Every passage comes with a set of questions. Some questions will ask you to consider how the writer
might revise the passage to improve the expression of ideas. Other questions will ask you to consider
correcting potential errors in sentence structure, usage, or punctuation. There may be one or more
graphics that you will need to consult as you revise and edit the passage.

Some questions will refer to a portion of the passage that has been underlined. Other questions will
refer to a particular spot in a passage or ask that you consider the passage in full.

After you read the passage, select the answers to questions that most effectively improve the
passage's writing quality or that adjust the passage to follow the conventions of standard written
English. Many questions give you the option to select "NO CHANGE." Select that option in cases where
you think the relevant part of the passage should remain as it currently is.
