Reading passage

El estudio observó una mejora en la participación tras introducir tutorías voluntarias. No obstante, los autores señalan que los estudiantes que eligieron asistir ya mostraban, en promedio, mayor motivación. Por eso, consideran que los resultados son compatibles con un efecto positivo de las tutorías, pero no permiten calcularlo con precisión.

23. What limitation most directly affects the interpretation?

The study contains no participation data. The students were randomly assigned. Students self-selected into tutoring, so motivation may partly explain the difference. The authors claim tutoring had no possible effect.

Reading passage

En la reunión, la directora dijo que "habría que revisar los plazos". Más tarde aclaró que no proponía cancelar el proyecto, sino comprobar si el calendario seguía siendo realista después de los retrasos recientes.

24. What is the best interpretation of the director's initial comment?

She had already canceled the project. She demanded that all deadlines remain unchanged. She raised the possibility of revising the schedule without necessarily rejecting the project. She announced that the delays had been solved.
