PART 1: Strategies for sentences about photographs 1. Always complete each item as quickly as possible so that you can preview the photograph for the next item. Don’t wait for the statement that says, “Now look at photograph number ______” 2. If you are previewing a photograph that involves a person or people, ask yourself these questions What are the people doing? Where are they? Who are they? (Is there a uniform or a piece of equipment or anything else that indicates their profession or role?) What distinguishes them? (Is there a hat, a mustache, a purse, a pair of glasses, a tie or anything else that differentiates the people?) What do the people’s expressions tell you? (Do they look happy? Unhappy? Excited? Bored? Upset?) 3. If you are previewing a photograph of an object, ask yourself these questions What is it? What is it made of? What is it used for? Where is it? 4. I If you are previewing a photograph of a scene, ask yourself these questions Where is it? What is in the foreground (the front of the picture)? What – if anything – is happening? What is in the background (the distant part of the picture)? 5. Don’t mark an answer until you have heard all four choices. When you hear a choice that you think is correct, rest your pencil on that oval on your answer sheet.
