QUESTION TEXT: According to the passage, the Federal Theater…
DISCUSSION: This is a detail question. I said in the passage analysis section that you don’t need to memorize details, you just need to know where they are.
This question is a good example. It’s asking about the FTP as a whole. That information is all in the first paragraph. So you can just check that paragraph to eliminate answers. That’s almost certainly the fastest method. You only need to scan 10 lines of text: lines 3-14 eliminate all the wrong answers.
Remember that you’re looking for the answer that is not supported.
___________

- See line 14.
- See line 10.
- See line 12.
- See lines 5-7.
