  3. C.Always the first sentence
  4. D.Supported by the details around it
  5. E.A minor example from one paragraph

The main idea is what the details keep pointing at, wherever it sits. "Always the first sentence" was the trap — authors bury the lede all the time.

“The senator's rebuttal was scathing.” Which words could replace scathing? Select all that apply.

Incorrect
  1. A.Harsh
  2. B.Blistering
  3. C.Mild
  4. D.Gentle
  5. E.Cutting

Scathing burns: harsh, blistering, cutting. "Mild" is its opposite — that pick flipped the meaning of the sentence.

An author's purpose can be to… Select all that apply.

Correct
  1. A.Inform the reader
  2. B.Persuade toward a position
  3. C.Entertain
  4. D.Confuse the reader
  5. E.Explain a process

Inform, persuade, entertain, explain — the classic four. If the writing confuses you, that's a flaw in the writing, not a purpose behind it.

Understand why,
not only what.

ACT questions test how you apply knowledge in real situations. After every answer, you are provided with a clear rationale so you can understand the reasoning, learn from mistakes, and recognize it when it appears again.

Question 1 of 3

If 3x + 5 = 20, what is x?
