Twelve-year-old
Claudia Kinkaid decides to run away from home with the help of her
little brother, Jamie (who is just nine years old). With Jamie's money

For short answer skip the ones you don't know and then go back to them at the end. Write the essays first so you don't run out of time.

Also, look for clues in the other test questions that could give you information on either responses. Hope that helped!
