Set 9: Cross-Text Connections
Explanation
PASSAGE
Text 1 Peter Pan is a boy who never grows up. He lives in Neverland and can fly. Text 2 Wendy is a girl from London. She grows up, but she never forgets her adventures with Peter.
Based on the texts, what is the main difference between Peter and Wendy?
Detailed Answer Explanation
This question asks you to compare perspectives from two passages. Peter: Never grows up. Wendy: Grows up. Difference: Aging. Understanding how the authors relate to each other's views is essential. Identify whether they agree, disagree, or address different aspects of the topic. Focus on their specific claims and conclusions. When comparing texts, first identify each author's thesis or main argument. Then determine how these positions interact: do they complement each other, contradict each other, or address different aspects of the same issue? The relationship between texts reveals deeper meaning.
Key Evidence:
• "never grows up"
• "She grows up"
Why others are wrong: B (Peter in Neverland.), D (She never forgets.), A (Peter flies.).
