Set 9: Text Structure (Intermediate)
Explanation
PASSAGE
Owls hunt at night. They have large eyes to see in the dark. Their feathers are soft, allowing them to fly silently.
Which choice best describes the connection between the sentences?
Detailed Answer Explanation
This question tests your understanding of how the text is organized. Sentence 1: Hunt at night. Features helping this: Eyes (dark vision), Feathers (silent flight). Authors structure their writing purposefully to guide readers through their ideas. Identify the organizational pattern (cause-effect, compare-contrast, problem-solution) and how each part contributes to the whole. Authors choose organizational patterns deliberately to enhance their message. Recognizing whether a text uses chronological order, cause-effect, compare-contrast, or problem-solution helps you understand the author's purpose and follow the logic.
Key Evidence:
• "see in the dark"
• "fly silently"
Why others are wrong: C (Diet not mentioned.), B (Owls fly.), A (No hawks.).
