    Reading Comprehension

    ASO gives short passages (about 120–180 words) with 5 questions each. Questions ask for facts, the meaning of a word, the main idea or a suitable title.

    1. Read the questions first, then the passage.
    2. Factual questions: the answer is written in the passage, often in different words. Find the line and match it.
    3. "NOT mentioned" questions: check each option against the passage.
    4. Word meaning: read the whole sentence and choose the meaning that fits there.
    5. Title/main idea: choose the option that covers the whole passage, not one detail.
    6. Do not use outside knowledge; answer only from the passage.
