Reading Comprehension: Detail Function Questions
In Reading Comprehension, is the Initial Reading enough to answer Detail Function questions?
You're right!
The Initial Reading enables us to answer general questions - Main Idea and Structure questions. Since Detail Function questions are specific, the Initial Reading is not enough in order to answer them. We also need to find the detail about which we're being asked and read the sentence in which it appears. Then we need to think about the correct answer - that is, about the function that this detail fulfills in the passage - and only then do we go over the answer choices and look for one that matches the one we thought of ourselves.
