Question

How is the concept of remote learning treated differently in the two passages?
A In “Remote Learning,” the author concentrates on the changes to education over the years; in “School Rocks,” the author details the reasons remote learning is successful.
B In “Remote Learning,” the author highlights the reasons that remote learning is beneficial to students; in “School Rocks,” the author emphasizes that students prefer traditional learning over remote learning.
C In “Remote Learning,” the author describes how school districts integrated remote learning with traditional learning; in “School Rocks,” the author describes the benefits to remote learning.
D In “Remote Learning,” the author reveals the reasons that remote learning has been successful; in “School Rocks,” the author describes the lack of student success in a traditional learning environment.

Answer 1

I don’t have the two passages available, so I can’t choose the correct option for you yet. Could you paste the texts (or the relevant paragraphs) from “Remote Learning” and “School Rocks”?

If you can’t paste them, here’s how to decide yourself:
- Determine each passage’s main idea and author’s purpose: are they explaining changes over time, describing how schools combined remote and in-person learning, arguing remote learning is beneficial, or arguing the opposite?
- Match that main idea to the answer choices:
- A: first passage = history/changes; second = reasons remote learning succeeds.
- B: first = benefits; second = students prefer traditional.
- C: first = how districts integrated remote + traditional; second = benefits of remote.
- D: first = reasons remote learning has been successful; second = lack of success in traditional settings.
- Pick the choice where both descriptions correctly summarize each passage’s main focus and tone.

If you paste the passages, I’ll pick the best answer and explain why.
