Sample worksheet activity
Judge whether a text’s reasoning and evidence are sound.
A town survey found that many riders avoided one bus stop after dark. Officials added lighting and trimmed shrubs that blocked the view from the road. In a follow-up survey, more riders reported feeling comfortable there. Which statement best evaluates the text’s reasoning and evidence?
○ The reasoning is trustworthy because equal starting conditions isolated sunlight as the cause.
○ The reasoning is strong because a follow-up survey checked whether the changes actually worked.
○ The reasoning is well supported because it links a specific cause, the roots and plants, to the observed effect.
During rehearsal, the actors rushed an important scene. The director asked them to pause before the final line and hold their positions afterward. The slower pacing made the character’s decision easier to understand. Which statement best evaluates the text’s reasoning and evidence?
○ The reasoning is supported because the change produced a specific, observable improvement in clarity.
○ The reasoning is strong because a follow-up survey checked whether the changes actually worked.
○ The reasoning is trustworthy because equal starting conditions isolated sunlight as the cause.
Tariq’s first map used tiny labels that his classmates could not read. He enlarged the labels, added a key, and asked two classmates to test the revision. Both could follow the route without help. Which statement best evaluates the text’s reasoning and evidence?
○ The reasoning is convincing because it reports a test with a clear before-and-after result.
○ The reasoning is sound because the judgment rests on source quality rather than personal preference.
○ The reasoning is trustworthy because equal starting conditions isolated sunlight as the cause.
Coastal grasses have deep roots that hold loose sand in place. During storms, the plants slow wind near the ground and trap moving sand. Protecting these grasses can help dunes remain stable. Which statement best evaluates the text’s reasoning and evidence?
○ The reasoning is fair because it weighs a benefit against a cost instead of ignoring the drawbacks.
○ The reasoning is sound because the decision rests on a month of measured results rather than opinion.
○ The reasoning is well supported because it links a specific cause, the roots and plants, to the observed effect.
Researchers placed identical containers in sun and shade, added equal amounts of water, and measured them each day. The sunny container lost water faster. The controlled setup helped isolate sunlight as a factor. Which statement best evaluates the text’s reasoning and evidence?
○ The reasoning is trustworthy because equal starting conditions isolated sunlight as the cause.
