1) Read the question before reading the passage to understand what to look for. Underline key details.
2) Restate the question in your answer so the grader knows you understood it.
3) Answer the question in your own words while keeping it simple and concise. Do not directly copy from the passage.
4) Support your answer with a direct quote from the passage to prove your understanding. Quote it exactly and use quotation marks. Stop writing once you have answered the question fully.
Writing responses to open ended questions
The document provides guidance on how to write responses to open-ended questions about literary works. It advises the reader to understand what the question is asking, find evidence from the text to support an answer, and link the evidence to the answer without including new unsupported information. An example question and response are then provided to illustrate the process. The example question asks about the role of Mrs. Benecke in a story, and the response determines her role is to be an excuse for the main character's workaholic tendencies, supported by a quote where he rationalizes working for her benefit.
