Read the first 7 Reading: True/False/Not Given flashcards as text
  1. A statement uses comparative language ('faster than') not found in the passage. The answer is:

    Answer: Not Given

    If the comparison is never made in the text, the information is Not Given.

  2. Why should you avoid changing many answers at the end?

    Answer: First careful readings are often correct

    Initial reasoning based on the text is usually reliable, so avoid second-guessing.

  3. The passage says a method 'may reduce costs'; the statement says it 'reduces costs'. This is most likely:

    Answer: False

    'May reduce' is tentative, while 'reduces' is definite, creating a contradiction.

  4. How many words should you typically write for a True/False/Not Given answer?

    Answer: Just one word or the correct label

    You write only True, False, or Not Given (or the equivalent label).

  5. If you misspell 'Not Given' on the answer sheet, what is the risk?

    Answer: The answer may be marked wrong

    Spelling must be accurate or the answer can be marked incorrect.

  6. Locating the right part of the passage is easier if you:

    Answer: Use names, dates, and unique keywords

    Unique words like names and dates act as anchors for fast location.

  7. What is the best mindset for True/False/Not Given questions?

    Answer: Treat each statement as a claim to test against the text

    Each statement should be objectively tested against what the passage actually says.
