This book is designed to help you strengthen the reading comprehension skills you will need to take the "Language Arts, Reading" test of the General Educational Development (GED) Examination. A Pre-Test section in the beginning of this book will help you assess the areas where you need to work the hardest. After you have completed the review areas and answered all of the drill questions, you will be given a Post-Test that will show your improvement in certain areas and show you which areas you still need to study. In the Post-Test section you will answer questions very similar to those you will face on the actual GED. The Pre-Test and Post-Test provide detailed explanations to all of the questions, illustrating not only why the correct answer choice was right, but also why the incorrect answer choices were wrong. The reviews cover all areas tested on the Interpreting Literature and the Arts test of the GED examination. The four sections of Prose, Poetry, Drama, and Commentary are covered extensively and provide a hands-on approach to understanding the material. These reviews will help you process information, find main ideas, and remember important details. By mastering the skills presented in this book, you will be able to approach any work of literature with confidence.
