Analyzing and Interpreting Literature / Unit 9   AIL 0837 short lesson, about 20 seconds

The Restatement Question

Captions available

The idea

Sample question eight gives a line and asks which option restates it. Every option is grammatical, so the item is decided by tense and mood rather than by literary judgment. This is unit two's work, and a structure unit needs it because a restatement must preserve the line's place in the argument.

In practice

Restatement must keep the tense.
