For ACT reading, many of the questions use key words that are directly lifted from the text. You can look at the questions first to see if some have obvious key words. For example, a passage about how birds fly might have a question specifying something about how fast the wings beat per minute. It’s likely that somewhere in the passage will specifically mention that. Your answer will be there. Another important strategy is to keep the big picture in mind, or the topic of the paragraph. Don’t be mislead into choosing answers that don’t reflect what you just read.
