For example, she achieved the deep reds and browns featured in her 2003 rug In the Path of the Four Seasons by using Arizona dock roots, drying and grinding them before mixing the powder with water to create a dye bath. To intensify the appearance of certain colors, Taylor also sometimes mixes in clay obtained from nearby soil.\u003Cbr>Which choice best states the main idea of the text?\u003Cbr>A) Reds and browns are not commonly featured inmost of Taylor’s rugs.\u003Cbr>B) In the Path of the Four Seasons is widely acclaimed for its many colors and innovative weaving techniques.\u003Cbr>C) Taylor draws on local resources in the approach she uses to dye wool.\u003Cbr>D) Taylor finds it difficult to locate Arizona dock root in the desert. |  |\n| --- | --- |\n| Key | C |\n| Domain | Information and Ideas |\n| Skill | Central Ideas and Details |\n\nKey Explanation: Choice C is the best answer. The passage focuses on the idea that the artist Lillie Taylor uses resources such as plants and vegetables from where she lives in Arizona to make dyes for wool.  \nDistractor Explanations: Choice A is incorrect because the passage offers no evidence that reds and browns are unusual colors in Taylor’s rugs; in fact, it offers an example of a rug that does feature those colors. Choice Bis incorrect because the passage offers no indication of whether In the Path of the Four Seasons is widely acclaimed; it also does not mention whether the weaving techniques are innovative. Choice D is incorrect because the passage offers no evidence that Taylor has a hard time finding Arizona dock root.  \n\n| RW question 2\u003Cbr>Jan Gimsa, Robert Sleigh, and Ulrike Gimsa have hypothesized that the sail-like structure running down the back of the dinosaur Spinosaurus aegyptiacus improved the animal’s success in underwater pursuits of prey species capable of making quick, evasive movements. To evaluate their hypothesis, a second team of researchers constructed two battery-powered mechanical models ofS. aegyptiacus, one with a sail and one without, and subjected the models to a series of identical tests in a water-filled tank.\u003Cbr>Which finding from the model tests, if true, would most strongly support Gimsa and colleagues’ hypothesis?\u003Cbr>A) The model with a sail took significantly longer to travel a specified distance while submerged than the model without a sail did.\u003Cbr>B) The model with a sail displaced significantly more water while submerged than the model without a sail did.\u003Cbr>C) The model with a sail had significantly less battery power remaining after completing the tests than the model without a sail did.\u003Cbr>D) The model with a sail took significantly less time to complete a sharp turn while submerged than the model without a sail did. |  |\n| --- | --- |\n| Key | D |\n| Domain | Information and Ideas |\n| Skill | Command of Evidence (Textual) |\n\nKey Explanation: Choice D is the best answer. The passage states that Gimsa and colleagues’ hypothesis was that the sail-like structure on the back of S. aegyptiacus enhanced the dinosaur’s ability to travel underwater to hunt down “prey species capable of making quick, evasive movements.” This choice’s finding would effectively support the hypothesis because it would indicate that the sail-like structure would enable a  \n2 THE DIGITAL SAT SAMPLE QUESTIONS  \ndinosaur moving underwater to maneuver more quickly than a dinosaur moving underwater without the structure.  \nDistractor Explanations: Choice A is incorrect because it would essentially contradict the hypothesis by suggesting that a dinosaur moving underwater with the sail-like structure would move more slowly thana dinosaur moving underwater without the structure. Choice B is incorrect because there is no clear passagebased relationship between the amount of w","cbCaikmWuoR2T0Ay","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaikmWuoR2T0Ay","pdf",538170,"English","# RW question 1\n# RW question 2\n# RW question 3\n# RW question 4","[{\"question\":\"How do the explanations determine the best answer for RW question 1?\",\"answer\":\"The explanation selects choice C by focusing on the passage’s main idea: the weaver uses local Arizona plant and vegetable resources to make dyes.
