Making connections with your knowledge of the world while reading a text is so helpful because it affects how we learn in a good way. If you as a reader bring some previous knowledge or experience about the world before you read a text, you would be able to make connections and in that order, understand better what you read.
So, answering your question, this are some of the questions you might think about in an attempt to relate a text with your knowledge of the world:
- Does this text remind me of the real world? If so, what is it and why?
- How can I this part associate to the world/ to what I am leaving?
- Why is this similar to what happen in the world?
Answer:
D. “But the relationship between the choice of a specific institution and a major and a lucrative and fulfilling first job and career is complicated. It has lots of moving parts.” (Paragraph 23)
Explanation:
Part A question is: Which statement best expresses the central idea of the text?
A. Having a college degree isn't valuable right now, as there are few jobs that actually require people to have a degree.
B. It's difficult to measure the long-term financial payoffs that certain majors will yield, which is why it's best to choose majors based on your interests and strengths.
C. Students should focus on occupation-specific majors, as they're more likely to be placed into jobs immediately after graduating.
D. While liberal art degrees don't prepare students for a specific job, they give widely applicable skills that all employers value.
The correct option is B, and we can see that option D in part B best supports the answer because it talks about institutions, which is where people study to major in a specific area regarding interests and strengths. Also, it mentions that the relationship between the choice of an institution, a major, a lucrative and fulfilling first job, and a career has lots of moving parts. In these moving parts, there are different variables. They modify how well a certain degree will pay off and the many facts that influence the choice of a career.
