Locating a Detail
Captions available
The idea
To answer a detail question, find the lines that hold the detail, using the question's key words or line references, and reread them before choosing.
In practice
A question about "the second experiment" sends you to the paragraph where a second experiment begins.
Where people slip
A choice can reuse the passage's words in a wrong combination; match the meaning, not the vocabulary.
