College Board, SAT, and the acorn logo are registered trademarks of the College Board.  \nAnswer Explanations  \nSAT Practice Test \\#7  \nSection 1: Reading Test  \nQUESTION 1.  \nChoice D is the best answer. The final sentence of the first paragraph makes clear that before adopting his daughter, the weaver Silas was greedy for gold and chained to his work,“deafened and blinded more and more to all things except the monotony of his loom.” But after adopting Eppie, Silas became more interested in life outside his job:  \n“Eppie called him away from his weaving, and made him think all its pauses a holiday, reawakening his senses with her fresh life.” A major theme of the passage can be seen in this transformation, as it represents how loving a child can improve or change a parent’s life.  \nChoice A is incorrect because even if the passage implies that Silas was too materialistic before his daughter’s arrival in his life, his greediness was a personal characteristic only, not a societal one; whether the society Silas lives in is overly materialistic is never addressed. Choice B is incorrect because even if the passage represents the “moral purity” of children, it does so only indirectly  \nand not as a major theme. Choice C is incorrect because the passage addresses childhood enthusiasm and curiosity more than “naïveté” and never discusses the length or “brevity” of that naïveté .  \nQUESTION 2.  \nChoice A is the best answer. The first sentence of the first paragraph notes that “Unlike the gold   Eppie was a creature of endless claims and ever-growing desires, seeking and loving sunshine, and living sounds, and living movements; making trial of everything, with trust in new joy, and stirring the human kindness in all eyes that looked on her.” These lines make clear that in contrast to Silas’s gold, his new daughter is vibrant and alive.  \nChoices B, C, and D are incorrect because the lines from the first paragraph cited above reveal Eppie’s interest in “living sounds” and“living movements” and thus characterize her vitality in comparison to the gold, rather than her durability, protection, or self-sufficiency.  \nQUESTION 3.  \nChoice A is the best answer. In the first paragraph, the narrator describes Silas as having been so obsessed as to have felt required to worship the gold “in close-locked solitude,” with “his thoughts in anever-repeated circle” centered on his hoard. Moreover, this obsession compelled him to “sit weaving longer and longer, deafened and blinded more and more to all things except the monotony of his loom and therepetition of his web.” These lines convey the extent to which Silas’s behaviors were determined by his obsession.  \nChoice B is incorrect because the narrator does not make it seem as if Silas’s gold could reproduce on its own, with the first paragraph suggesting that his hoard was a consequence of hard work, his being “deafened and blinded more and more to all things except the monotony of his loom and the repetition of his web.” Choice Cis incorrect because even if the first paragraph mentions that, after Eppie’s arrival, Silas thinks about “the ties and charities that bound together the families of his neighbors,” the passage never addresses how Silas interacted with those neighbors previously. Choice D is incorrect because the third paragraph makes clear that Silas is not only able to recall life before Eppie, but that with her in his life,“his mind was growing into memory.”  \nQUESTION 4.  \nChoice B is the best answer. The first paragraph of the passage describes Eppie as “a creature of endless claims and ever-growing desires,” one who is “making trial of everything.” In this context, her“making trial of everything” can be read as her acting on her curiosity by striving to experience the world around her.  \nChoices A, C, and D are incorrect because in the context of her“making trial of everything,” Eppie can be seen as curious, not friendly (choice A),","cbCaivCILj2QpUDP","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaivCILj2QpUDP","pdf",480444,49,"English","# Section 1: Reading Test\n## Question 1\n## Question 2\n## Question 3\n## Question 4\n## Question 5\n## Question 6","[{\"question\":\"What is the main theme emphasized in Question 1’s passage?\",\"answer\":\"The theme is that loving a child can improve or change a parent’s life, shown through Silas’s transformation after adopting Eppie.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the passage in Question 2 distinguish Eppie from Silas’s gold?\",\"answer\":\"Eppie is described using images of vitality and movement, while Silas’s gold represents something static and driven by endless desires; the contrast supports the correct choice about her vitality.\"},{\"question\":\"What consequence of adopting Eppie is supported in Question 5 and Question 6?\",\"answer\":\"Eppie prompts Silas to imagine a far different future, shifting his thoughts away from work and gold toward what will come in the coming years.\"}]","SAT Practice Test - 7 - Answer Explanations - Reading Test | PDF",123]
