The 7002 Comprehension section assesses understanding of which texts?

• A. Both literary and informational texts
• B. Fiction texts only
• C. Nonfiction texts only
• D. Historical documents only

Answer: (A)

Understanding how to read and interpret a variety of texts is what the comprehension section measures. It tests your ability to make sense of both literary texts—stories, poems, and plays—and informational texts—articles, essays, and reports. You’ll often encounter questions about the main idea and supporting details, making and supporting inferences, identifying the author’s purpose or point of view, and recognizing how text structure and features (like headings, captions, or diagrams) guide understanding. Since students encounter both kinds of texts in real schoolwork and in everyday reading, this section covers understanding across literary and informational genres. Focusing on only one type would miss how readers need to engage with a broad range of texts.
