READTHEORY Answers and Explanations Copyright Read Theory LLC, 2012. All rights reserved. 3 1) B Question Type: Inference
At the beginning of the passage, the author writes, Carly has a large family. She lives with four people. If Carly is a person, and
she lives with four people, we can tell that there must be five people in Carlys family. This means (B) is correct. The passage does
not provide information to support choices (A) or (C). Therefore they are incorrect. 2) C Question Type: Detail In paragraph 2, the
author writes, Carlys mom works at the hospital. This lets us know that Carlys mom works at the hospital. Therefore (C) is
correct. The passage does not provide information to support choices (A) or (B). This means they are incorrect. 3) A Question
Type: Global At the beginning of the passage, the author writes, Carly has a large family. After this, the author describes the
people and pets in Carlys family. Using this information, we can tell that this passage is mostly about Carlys family. Therefore (A)
is correct. The passage mentions Carlys pets, Jinx and Diego. They are a part of Carlys family. The author spends more time
writing about Carlys family in general. Using this information, we can tell that this passage is not mostly about Carlys pets. This
means (B) is incorrect. In paragraph 3, the author mentions that the kids go to soccer practice. This is only one detail in the
passage. The author spends more time writing about Carlys family in general. Using this information, we can tell that this
passage is not mostly about Carlys soccer team. Therefore (C)is incorrect. 4) C Question Type: Inference At the end of the
passage, the author writes, Carly has two pets. Jinx is a small, black cat. Diego is a large, brown dog. Right after this, the author
writes, Carly loves her family! Because the author mentions Carly loving her family right after Jinx and Diego are described, we
can tell it is most like true that Jinx and Diego are part of Carlys family. This means (C) is correct. The passage does not provide
information to support choices (A) or (B). Therefore they are incorrect. 5) B Question Type: Detail In paragraph 4, the author
writes, Carly has two brothers. James is ten years old. Scott is fourteen years old. If James is ten and Scott is fourteen, we can
tell that the oldest brother is Scott. This means (B) is correct. James is younger than Scott. Diego is a dog. Thus, the passage does
not provide information to support choices (A) or (C), and they are incorrect.
