The document provides tips for answering reading comprehension questions that involve stated and unstated details. It discusses identifying key words and ideas, carefully reading relevant passages, and selecting answer choices that are supported by the text rather than clearly contradicted. For stated detail questions, the correct answer will usually restate an idea from the text without using exactly the same words. For unstated detail questions, four answer choices will be true while one is not mentioned in the text. The document provides examples to illustrate these principles.
