"Passing the GED Reading Test" is the first in five episodes that prepares the student for the GED Language Arts Reading test. The program explains the four areas of reading material that the upcoming episodes will cover (nonfiction, fiction, drama, and poetry) and also familiarizes the student with the test itself: what kinds of questions are asked and what the student needs to know. The program uses sample passages to cover the different types of questions that the student will be asked. They are: comprehension questions-figuring out what the text says and forming a conclusion; analysis questions-taking a look at the detail of the passage and making a decision about why it's there; application questions-taking something that's already been read and applying it to a slightly different context; and synthesis questions-putting it all together. GED teachers, English teachers, and writers all appear as guests in this episode.
