Competing viewpoints
Track multiple perspectives and contrasts within a passage.
Advanced RC passages often include competing viewpoints. Your goal is to tag each perspective and identify the authors alignment. When you can map who believes what, inference and detail questions become easier.
- Tag viewpoints clearly
- Contrast words signal shifts
- Author stance determines correct answers
- Misattribution is a common trap
- A simple viewpoint map prevents confusion
After a viewpoint passage, write two sentences: one summarizing each viewpoint and one stating the authors stance.
