B. READING
I. DETAIL QUESTIONS: Watch for Keywords and Synonyms
Keywords are the most important words in a question. These keywords will appear in the passage, next to the details
that will answer the question. If you can find the keywords, you will also be able to locate the details around them.
Synonyms are words with similar definitions. For example, synonyms of “difficult” are “hard” and “tricky." Watch out
for synonyms. You do not want to miss a detail because the author replaces a keyword with a synonym.

III. PRACTICE 1
The Civil War happened just as the art of photography was
growing. Many people believe that photography had a big effect on
the war. People were able to see images of their president, Abraham
Lincoln. They were also able to have photographs of their sons,
fathers, brothers, and husbands who fought or died in the war.
Not only that, but many photographs of battlefields were
shown in galleries in New York and Washington D.C. These photographs made people understand just
how terrible the war was.
Army generals also used photographers as part of their staff. They sent photographers to take
pictures of enemy areas and bases. They took pictures of roads, railroads, and bridges so that they
could have information about what everything looked like. They wanted to have information so that they
could win the war. The war ended in 1865, but we still have the pictures. The photos from the battles of
Antietam and Gettysburg are particularly sad. Even today, they make us remember the horrors of war.
Dear Class,
I’m writing to you because the try-outs for the school talent show are tomorrow. I forgot to mention it in
class today. If you want to sing, dance, act, play an instrument, or do anything else in the talent show, then
you should go to the try-outs tomorrow after school. The try-outs will start at 3:00 p.m. at the school theater.
The directors don’t know how long it will take to see everyone, but they’re sure everything will be finished
before 7:00 P.M. Once you’ve done your performance, you’re free to go home. The directors will post the list
of who will be in the talent show sometime next week.
Lastly, don’t worry about a ride home. There will be a late bus staying until the try-outs are finished. It will
go to all the stops in town, so you will be able to get home. If you have any questions, write back. You can
also ask me questions in class tomorrow.
Mrs. Harrington.
