Once you’ve found the relevant section of the passage, carefully read and understand the meaning of the incomplete sentence. Consider what information would logically complete the idea.
- Why This Is Important: Some sentence beginnings may seem similar, but the context provided in the passage will determine the correct match.
- How to Apply It:
- Focus on the main idea of the sentence beginning and how it relates to the passage. Is it asking for a reason, an outcome, a definition, or a description?
- Eliminate sentence endings that don’t logically connect to the beginning, based on the information provided in the passage.
Example: If the sentence begins, “The project was delayed because of…”, the ending should logically provide a reason, such as “lack of funding” or “technical difficulties.”
