What kind of texts are analyzed in the reading comprehension section of the AYAS Practice Test?

The reading comprehension section of the AYAS Practice Test is designed to evaluate a student's ability to understand and analyze a variety of text types. The inclusion of both fictional and informational texts allows for a comprehensive assessment of different reading skills.

Fictional texts typically offer narratives or stories that engage readers through characters, plots, and themes, promoting critical thinking and interpretation. Informational texts, on the other hand, present factual content and are often structured to communicate specific information clearly and efficiently. By encompassing these two genres, the test enables students to demonstrate skills in comprehension, interpretation, summarization, and analysis across diverse contexts. This approach also reflects real-world reading scenarios, where individuals often encounter both types of texts.
