Each selection is followed by a date (usually of first publication). Questions don＊t ask about the historical background of the content, but you may find the date helpful when orienting yourself to the selection. Each set of questions addresses some features of the literary selection that may be distinctive or even unique. For example, if a poem presents a complex reading task, the set may also include some questions that focus on the meaning of specific words or lines in order to measure your ability to read and understand the poem accurately. Please note that this test reflects what is commonly taught in high school. Due to differences in high school classes, it＊s likely that most students will find questions on topics they＊re not familiar with. This is nothing to worry about. You do not have to get every question correct to receive the highest score (800) for the test. Many students do well despite not having studied every topic covered.
