The 3 Types of SAT Reading Passages You Should Know

The 3 Types of SAT Reading Passages You Should Know SAT / ACT Prep Online Guides and Tips There are 3 types of SAT reading passages that you, as the test taker, need to be familiar with. The 3 types of passages mainly differ in length, but also somewhat in content. Therefore, the strategies for tackling them need to be different. Below, we'll go over the different types of reading passages on the SAT and what you can expect from the questions that follow them. NOTE: This article was written about the old SAT Critical Reading section. For more information about passages on the current SAT Reading, we recommend instead reading this article. Types of Passages: Short passages Short passages are generally 100-200 words, 5 or 6 questions per passage.You might have multiple short passages in a section but, because they have less space to express ideas, they are usually informational pieces, rather than fiction. Here's an example of a short passage: These short reading passages tend to follow the sentence completions.Short passages are generally more straightforward and convey simpler ideas. Therefore, you should be able to go through them faster, and with greater accuracy than thelong or paired passages. Short Passage Questions Short passage questions tend to focus around reading comprehension questions. They're likely to be specific questions, or information based, with some general questions about the main idea or tone. Long Passages Long passages are 400-800 words, with anywhere between 7-10 questions per passage.The types of questions likely to be covered in a long passage are mentioned in another section below. Because of its length, you may find yourself forgetting what you read by the time you get to the questions. Therefore, make things easier for yourself! Mark important sections or words as you're reading the passage so that you can easily find it again later as you are going through the questions, just like in the example above. Long Passage Questions Longpassages are the bread and butter of the reading passage and usually involve main idea questions in some form. You should definitelyexpect plot summary questions, questions about the author’s views, and questions about individual characters (if the subject is fiction). Paired Passages Paired passages are 250-600 words each.They generally share the same topic or theme but approach it from a different perspective. Paired passagesare either both long or both short but, don't worry, they are no more difficult than the standard long or short passages. Here's an example of a passage pairing that's particularly short: With paired passages, remember to read any introductory material describing or giving information about two passages. This will usually be found in italics at the beginning and contain valuable information that can start helping you compare and contrast the two viewpoints. It might also be good to keep in mind the kind of sources that the 3 types of reading passages are drawn from. We'll cover these in more detail in another article, but for now, here's a very brief overview, below. Paired Passage Questions For paired passages, the first group of questions will refer to the first passage and the second group of questions will refer to the second passage. The last group of questions will almost always refer to how the passages relate to each other -this question type is unique to paired passages. Paired Passages Generally Have the Following Format for their Questions: A few questions on passage 1 A few questions on passage 2 Some questionsthat ask you to compare and contrast the two passages Some questions that ask you to consider what one author thinks about the other author's point of view Reading passages usually concern these subjects: Natural Sciences Humanities [Arts Commentary, History] Social Sciences [Science and culture] Literary Fiction [Literature] Personal Narrative We cover all these types in more detail in another article, Master SAT Reading: 5 Types of Passages. Question Types Across Passage Types: There are a total of 48 critical reading questions that are passage based, distributed across the 3 types of passages above. All passages share certain types of questions in common, while each passage type also has unique question types. First, we'll cover the types of questions that are common to all passage types. Vocabulary in context questions Vocab in Context questionsgenerallynumber between12-16 questions in total. Typically, they ask about a word in the passage.These questions are straight forward and quick. They're also easy to practice for - don't waste this opportunity to accumulate points!Always refer back to the passage first (get an idea of what word means in your terms then look at answer choice and pick one that matches). Specific Questions Specific questions will often contain a line or paragraph reference, a piece of information that isn't identified by line number.You will need to look for one identifiable piece of information within the passage, not the passage as a whole.If you find the answer, then approach itlike you would the vocab questions - think of the answer in your own words, and only thenlook back at the question.Specific questions can be literal comprehension, extended reasoning, or main idea questions. Literal comprehension questionswant you tofind a specific piece of information. Extended reasoning questionsask you to enter, make connections or draw conclusions about specific information in the passage. They never stray far from the text!You can draw conclusions but keep in mind that they're still specific questions! All answers should be drawnfrom the passage.Sometimes you may have to identify cause and effect,make inferences, orunderstand the logic of analogies or arguments. Main Idea Questions Main idea questions generally ask about passage as a whole (about author's tone, about attitude/development of a character).To answer these, you must have reasonable grasp of the entire passage.These can take a long time, so save them for last if you have trouble with time management. Confused About How to Sort This Out? Don't worry! We've got you covered! Below are some questions that should help you assess how you are doing on the critical reading - what you're good at, what you're having trouble with, where you can improve, etc. Answer them on a separate piece of paper and go over them with another practice test in hand.
