There are different types of questioning
method employed by jamb in this delicate section.

They are as follows:

2.Periphrastic questioning method

3.Logical questioning method

5.Contextual questioning method

6.Refutational questioning method

Let’s begin with (Authorial questioning
method):Questions under this questioning method require a candidate to provide answers based on the dictates of the passage…

Examples:

2.The passage suggests that…
For instance,if a passage talks about prostitution of under-age girls and how it has helped shape their lives for good,and a
question is asked that
“Prostitution is_____ (a)good (b)bad… The
answer is ‘good’ in accordance to
passage ..
you must not allow your personal
opinion to influence your answer.

2.Periphrastic questioning method:
This is a
“round-about’ questioning method,Whereby a
candidate is required to simplify the question
before answering it.

Examples are:
-Which of this is untrue?(i.e which of this is not
true.)

-Which of this is unimportant?(i.e which of this
is not important).

3.Logical questioning method:Here,the
principle of logic is required to enable you pick
a right answer from the available options.
A
candidate needs to consider and gather
concrete facts that are paraphernalia of a
certain context to enable him arrive at the right answer.

4.Evaluation questioning method:This requires
a candidate to describe a person or object in
the passage how the given subject does thing
comes into the picture like,walks,talks and so
on.

Example:In given passage Saka is described

And You are asked:
“According to the passage,Saka is a______
(a)Two-headed goat (b)skilled fighter (c)bull
