 * For each passage, answer the questions referring to that passage using the technique we discussed in class. Remember the four steps:
 * 1) Read to the next indexed item.
 * 2) Read and interpret the question without looking at the answers. [What is the topic of the question? What is the question asking about that topic?]
 * 3) Answer the question from the passage using the Rule of Five Lines. [What is the topic of this portion of the passage? What does the author say about the topic? What conclusion does the author invite you to come to?]
 * 4) Eliminate answer choices that you cannot prove from this part of the passage. The answer you pick should be like the answer you produced from Step 3. You should be able to point to the place in the passage that proves your answer.

Passage-Based Questions:
Remember that the answers to these questions can be found on page 556 of the BBB. Your properly done homework will look something like the following example:
 * 1) Index the passage with the question numbers next to the line numbers.
 * 2) Cross through the parts of the answer choices you eliminated because they could not be proven using the indexed portion of the passage.
 * 3) Circle the word or words in the indexed portion of the passage that prove your answer.

Sentence Completion Questions:

 * 1) For each item, underline the word or words in the sentence that determine what word must go in the blank(s).
 * 2) Do NOT WRITE in your own word(s) in the blank(s), but THINK of specific words that you WOULD write if you were required to. [Alternatively, you may use the positive/negative technique for a two-blank item if you decide it would be useful for that item.]
 * 3) Show evidence of your use of process of elimination. Actually cross out answers that you judge to be wrong if you use this process.
 * 4) Select an answer.

Your properly done homework will look something like the following example:
