Question type

Analogy

The one idea it tests

Apply the artist's described traits to a new object.

The basic logic

Collect the traits the passage gives: what styles she avoided, what she preferred, and whether her later work served people's needs. The right object matches all of them; wrong ones show the very style she avoided.

Tiny words that decide it

“simple”
“rather than”
“fit”

Playground logic

Rosa likes plain shapes, hates frills, and makes things you can use. So an object that is plain AND useful fits her best.

Step 2 · The kid passage

This question belongs to Passage 2 (Questions 8–14). Read its kid passage and structure guide first: Aunt Rosa, From Inside Out →

Step 3 · Try the model question

Which object would best match Aunt Rosa's style as the passage describes it?

Step 5 · Work the real question

Open PrepTest 147, Section 2, Question 9 in your official copy from LSAC (for example in LawHub) and read it there.

Your answer

How to apply it

Open Question 9 in your official copy and answer it first.

List the passage's traits for the artist in two columns: avoided and preferred. Add whether her later work was practical. Then test each choice against every trait. Most wrong choices will show the avoided style; the right one will be plain in form and suited to how people use it.
