2. SAT Sentence completion activity
Read the sentence without looking at the given word choices. Get a feel for the general structure and meaning of the sentence. Trying to plug in a word without understanding either of these can lead to confusion.
2. Determine the main conjunction words in the sentence. Doing so will help you notice the relationship between the different clauses. For example, "George woke up early but he _____ his bus." The "but" indicates that the missing work will probably have some negative connotation (i.e. "he missed his bus" ); take note if the missing word is positive or negative.
In two-blank questions, use a similar approach to that suggested by Hint Number 2. Determine the correlation between the parts of the sentence in which the blanks appear - are they antithetical or not? This will limit the available options.
