Comparative Reading — Two Passages, One Topic
One of the four RC sets uses two shorter passages instead of one long passage.
Common question types:
How do the authors' views relate?
On which point would both authors agree/disagree?
How does Passage B's argument affect Passage A's claim?
Strategy:
1. Read Passage A. Note its main point and the author's stance.
2. Read Passage B. Note its main point and stance.
3. Before answering questions, identify: What do they agree on? Disagree on? Does one respond to the other?
The relationship is usually one of:
Agreement with different emphasis
Direct disagreement on a key point
Same topic, different methods or perspectives
One expands or qualifies the other's argument
