LSAT 33, Reading Comprehension, Q13

DISCUSSION: As with most questions, the answer can be confirmed using a few lines from the passage. Since you only have to check one answer (the one you think is correct), it’s not too hard to make sure.

___________

1. This is something the critics would agree with.
2. CORRECT. Lines 25-28 show this is true. The author describes slave narratives and the domestic narrative as “two genres”. 
3. The author wouldn’t agree; they like Jacobs’ novel. And Jacobs’ novel certainly doesn’t obey the conventions of the “domestic” genre. The protagonist is a slave, instead of a free woman! 
4. We have no idea what the author thinks of autobiographies. They aren’t discussed.
5. Same as D. Autobiographies aren’t mentioned. The novel is autobiographical, perhaps, but it’s not an autobiography.
