What is the time allotted for Reading and Writing, Module 1?

• A. 39 minutes
• B. 39 hours
• C. 29 minutes
• D. 49 minutes

Answer: (A)

Timing is built into the Reading and Writing section by splitting it into modules so you can pace your work. Module 1 is allocated 39 minutes, a duration that gives you enough time to read the passages, examine questions, and select the best answers without rushing. The other options don’t fit because they either propose an hours-long block, which isn’t how the test is paced, or durations that don’t match the standard module length used in this section. If you practice with this 39-minute window in mind, you can develop a steady pace: read, refer back to the passage for evidence, and eliminate clearly wrong choices within the time you’ve got.
