test is:
1.

groups of words. You want to see if you can spot which of the four answer
choices in not correct.
2.
If you have been unable to find the
error by looking only at the four underlined expressions, then read the
complete sentence. Often an underlined expression is incorrect because of
something in another part of the sentence.
3.
Never leave any answers blank. Be sure
to answer each question even if you are unsure of the correct respons.

The strategy for this
part is:
1.
First study the sentence. Your purpose is to
determine what is needed to complete the sentence correctly.
2.
Then study each answer based on how well
it completes the sentences. Eliminate answers that do not complete the sentence
correctly.
3.
Don’t try to eliminate incorrect answers
by looking only at the answers. The incorrect answers are generally correct by
themselves. The incorrect answers are generally incortect only ehen used to
complete the sentence.
4.
Never leave any answers blank. Be sure
to answer each question if you are unsure of the correct response.
5.
Do not spend too much time on the
structure questions. Be sure to leave adequate time for the written expression
question.

In this section you
will read a number of passages. Each one is followed by approxiamately 5
question about it.
Question 1-5
Printmaking is the
generic term for a number of processes, of which woodcut and engraving are two
prime examples. Prints are made by pressing a sheet of paper (or other
material) against an image-bearing surface to which ink has been applied. When
the paper is removed, the image adheres to it, but in reverse.
The woodcut had been
used in China from the fifth century A.D for applying patterns to textiles. The
process was not introduced into Europe until the fourteenth century, first to
textile decoratiaon and then for printing on paper. Woodcuts are created by a
relief process, first the artist takes a block of wood, which has been sawed
parallel to the grain, covers it with a white ground, and then draws the image
in ink. The background is carved away, leaving the design area slightly raised.
The woodblock is inked, and the ink adheres to the raised image. It is then
transferred to damp paper either by hand or with a printing press.
Engraving, which grew
out of the goldsmith’s art, originated in Germany and northern Italy in the
middle of the fifteenth century. It is an intaglio process ( from Italian intagliare,
“to curve”). The image is incised into a highly polished metal plate, usually
copper, with a cutting instrument, or burin. The artist inks the plate and
wipes it clean so that some ink remains in the incised grooves. An impression
is made on damp paper in a printing press, with sufficient pressure being
applied so that the paper picks up the ink.
Both woodcut and
engraving have distinctive characteristic. Engraving lends itself to subtle
modeling and shading through the use of fine lines. Hatching and cross-hatching
determine the degree of light and shade in a print. Woodcuts tend to be more
linear, with sharper contrasts between lightand dark. Printmaking is well
suited to the production of multiple images. A set of multiples is called an
edition. Both methods can yield several hundred good-quality prints before the
original block or plate begins to show signs of wear. Mass production of print
in the sixteenth century made images available, at a lower cost, to a much
broader public than before.

The reading section may have 3-5 passages each of around 700 words. Time allowed for attempting 12-14 question on each passage will be 20 minutes. so total time allowed for the reading section will be 60-100 minutes depending upon the number of reading passages. students are allowed to take notes and use the same for making an aswer, but they are not allowed to carry the same outside the test venue and have to surrender them before leaving. technical terms, if any may be highlighted in the text which may be clicked on for finding the meaning there of in the glossary. strategies for doing this section is:
1. Read newspaper, magazine. Read whatever you can, whenever you can.
2. Practice skimming-reading some leaving some-so as to get the gist of the writing without reading all or major portion of the reading assignment.
3. Pay particular attention to new vocabulary words, including the use of prefixes, suffixes and roots.
4. practice determining the meaning of a vocabulary word from its context.
