PrepTest 108 · Section 1 · Question 13

Phase 1 (your first ~400 questions): read the guidance, then answer. No clock.

Step 1 · Pre-Question Guidance · read this first

Question type
Attitude
The one idea it tests
Author attitude hides in evaluative words, especially at the end.
The basic logic
Use the Voice Tracker: separate what the reformers say from what the author says. The final sentence often switches back to the author's own voice. Gauge strength from words like 'crucial' or 'positive' and any hedges.
Tiny words that decide it
  • “thus”
  • “might”
  • “could”

Playground logic

The kid passage's last sentence is the author talking: Story Circles 'may be exactly what this playground needs.' That is warm, firm support with a small hedge.

Step 2 · The kid passage

This question belongs to Passage 2 (Questions 9–16). Read its kid passage and structure guide first: The Recess Report Problem →

Your answer

How to apply it

Open Question 13 in your official copy and answer it first.

Separate voices: mark where reformers speak ('they argue', 'they propose') and where the author speaks. Read the author's closing lines for value words. Rate the strength: positive or negative, mild or strong? Match the choice; cross off ones that ignore the clear lean or that go further than any hedge allows.
