Question type

Inference (author agrees)

The one idea it tests

The author's agreement can show in what the author quietly assumes, not only in what the author argues.

The basic logic

Note how the author talks about the forms involved. If the author treats both as forms with their own conventions and goals, the author would agree they are both forms. Avoid choices that copy the critics or add a rule the author never states.

Tiny words that decide it

“no less than”
“both”
“genre”

Playground logic

The author calls the work log 'another kind of class project with its own goals,' right beside the scrapbook. So the author treats both as real kinds of projects.

Your answer

How to apply it

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

Look at how the author frames every idea, including side remarks and labels. The right answer is often something the author assumes in passing. Check each choice against the author's voice, not the critics'. Eliminate rules the author never states and claims stronger than anything in the passage.
