[This book] teaches the strategies you need to get good scores on open-ended test questions. [It] covers questions based on reading passages from three different subject areas: science, social studies, and literature. In each lesson, you will review a skill or concept - such as cause and effect or sequence -- and practice using it to help construct your response. You'll also learn how to use a chart, diagram, or other graphic organizer to help you collect and analyze information to include in your response. [The text] follows this four-step process for reading and answering open-response questions: read; plan; write; [and] review and edit. - --Cover p. [4].
