Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 7.54 Evidence from Texts skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

Maya’s group first argued that fishing pressure had damaged the river, but their research packet included a chart and an interview that complicated the claim. The group was almost finished with its poster. Maya reread the paragraph about the river’s chemical levels and crossed out the group’s first claim about fishing pressure. She proposed a new conclusion that matched both the chart and the interview. The poster board was folded in half. A glue stick rolled under the table during the discussion.

Which choice combines evidence and reasoning most effectively?

AMaya crossed out the group’s first claim about fishing pressure.

BMaya’s revision proves that the group’s first idea was foolish and useless.

CThe folded poster board shows that Maya lets evidence guide the conclusion.

DMaya’s choice to cross out the fishing-pressure claim after rereading the chemical-level paragraph shows that evidence, not convenience, guides the group’s conclusion.

Solution & Explanation:The correct response both cites evidence and explains how it supports the claim that Maya lets evidence change the group’s conclusion. The other choices merely copy a detail, overstate what the passage proves, or use irrelevant evidence.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

Maya’s group first argued that fishing pressure had damaged the river, but their research packet included a chart and an interview that complicated the claim. The group was almost finished with its poster. Maya reread the paragraph about the river’s chemical levels and crossed out the group’s first claim about fishing pressure. She proposed a new conclusion that matched both the chart and the interview. The poster board was folded in half. A glue stick rolled under the table during the discussion.

Which detail is true but does not strongly support the claim that Maya lets evidence change the group’s conclusion?

A“Maya reread the paragraph about the river’s chemical levels and crossed out the group’s first claim about fishing pressure.”

B“She proposed a new conclusion that matched both the chart and the interview.”

C“The poster board was folded in half.”

D“A glue stick rolled under the table during the discussion.”

Solution & Explanation:The selected detail, “The poster board was folded in half,” is least relevant because it gives background information instead of evidence for the claim. The stronger choices show the action, result, or reasoning that matters.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

Maya’s group first argued that fishing pressure had damaged the river, but their research packet included a chart and an interview that complicated the claim. The group was almost finished with its poster. Maya reread the paragraph about the river’s chemical levels and crossed out the group’s first claim about fishing pressure. She proposed a new conclusion that matched both the chart and the interview. The poster board was folded in half. A glue stick rolled under the table during the discussion.

What conclusion can a reader reasonably draw from the detail “Maya reread the paragraph about the river’s chemical levels and crossed out the group’s first claim about fishing pressure.”?

AMaya keeps the first claim because the poster is almost finished.

BMaya is willing to revise a nearly finished claim when the sources do not support it.

CMaya changes the conclusion because the poster board is folded.

DThe passage gives no evidence that the group’s first conclusion changes.

Solution & Explanation:The cited evidence supports the correct inference because it shows Maya changing the claim in direct response to source evidence. The other choices contradict the passage, focus on an irrelevant detail, or ignore the evidence.
