Which statement is true about supporting details?
a good reader attempts to distinguish between essential and nonessential details.
noting nonessential details is useful when studying but irrelevant when trying to analyze a text.
questionable details add interest to a text because they cause readers to ask questions and make personal connections with the text.
when analyzing a text, it is important not to consider details that are irrelevant or questionable.
