• Select and use evidence to support a line of reasoning.
• Explain how the evidence supports a line of reasoning.
• Use appropriate grammar and punctuation in communicating an argument.

Corresponding free-response question (FRQ) type in the course and exam description binder

• The single question on the 2020 AP English Literature and Composition Exam is a Prose Fiction Analysis question, which is FRQ 2 on a traditional AP Exam and in the CED. It is referred to as Question 1 because the 2020 exam has just that one question.
• The prompt will not include the title and author of the passage. Otherwise, the prompt will match the stable prompt language found in the CED.
