Preparing to Read a Fiction Text

Question 1 • Basic English II S2

Read the excerpt from "Under the Raven's Wing.”"Bad ankle?" Elizabeth asked."Just turned it. I'll be all right in a minute," Barton said, sounding more confident than he felt."I think I have a bandage in my pack.""Really?" Barton said. "I would be most appreciative."Elizabeth began searching her pack "It's in my first aid kit. I have some aspirin in there, too, if you’re really aching."

Answer
A
by thinking about a time when the reader helped someone
B
by thinking about how many Elizabeths the reader knows
C
by thinking about what kind of bandages the reader likes
D
by thinking about what brand of pack the reader prefers

Explanation

The excerpt shows Elizabeth offering Barton a bandage and aspirin after he turns his ankle. A reader can connect to this scene by remembering a time they helped someone who was hurt. Knowing how many people named Elizabeth, or which bandages or packs they prefer, does not connect as directly to what happens in the excerpt.
