Reading Comprehension · Inference

PrepTest 113 · Section 1 · Question 7

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

Step 1 · Pre-Question Guidance · read this first

Question type
Inference
The one idea it tests
The writer would back only with what their stated views back up: Lunchbox Rule, no outside snacks.
The basic logic
Collect the author's views on the topic the choices circle around. Pick the claim that follows from those views without stretching them. Watch for choices that pin the problem on one person or call everything else perfect.
Tiny words that decide it
  • “usually”
  • “acceptable”
  • “rather”

Playground logic

The club author says a freeze shows members doing their job and is better than a bad purchase. So the writer would back the claim that a freeze is fine and usually means the club is working.

Your answer

How to apply it

Open Question 7 in your official copy and answer it first.

Gather every author statement on the topic the choices share. Predict a modest claim those statements support. Test each choice against the text, cutting any that assign blame the author never assigns, that say something has no other problems, or that stretch a small point into a sweeping one.
