Answers and Explanations
1) C
The story does not say that Griffin plays tennis. This eliminates option (I).In

supports option (II). In paragraph 1, we learn that Griffith plays the violin
This supports option (III). Therefore (C) is correct
2) C
Paragraph 1 tells us, “Griffin plays the violin.” Paragraph 2 tells us “he takes
lessons after school on Tuesdays.” Therefore (C) is correct. The story does
not contain information to support answer choices (A), (B), and (D). Therefore
they are incorrect
3) A
In paragraph 3, we learn that “Mr. Thomas tells Griffin to practice every day.”
Therefore (A) is correct
Griffin actually does practice “most days,” but that is not what Mr. Thomas
tells him. Therefore (B) is incorrect. Griffin only takes lessons on Tuesdays,
but he should practice every day. Therefore (C) is incorrect. The story does
not contain information to support (D). Therefore (D) is incorrect.
4) B
According to paragraph 4, “Griffin practices his violin on most days.”
Therefore (B) is correct.
In paragraph 3 we learn that “Mr. Thomas tells Griffin to practice every day,”
but that is not in fact what Griffin does. He only practices “most days.”
Therefore (A) is incorrect. The story does not contain information to support
(C). Therefore (C) is incorrect. Griffin takes lessons on Tuesdays, but he
practices “most days.” Therefore (D) is incorrect.
