Correct Choices Choice 3 Early cinema allowed individuals to use special machines to view films privately is correct because it represents one of the chief differences between Kinetoscope and projection viewing. This idea is discussed at several places in the passage. It is mentioned in paragraphs 1 3 4 and 6. Thus it is a basic recurring theme of the passage and as such a major idea. Choice 5 The development of projection technology made it possible to project images on a large screen is correct because this is a major idea that is developed in paragraphs 3 4 5 and 6. This development was essentially the reason that the cinema emerged as a form of mass consumption. Choice 6 Once film images could be projected the cinema became a form of mass consumption is correct because it represents the primary theme of the passage. It is explicitly stated in the passage s opening sentence then the remainder of the passage describes that evolution. Incorrect Choices Choice 1 Kinetoscope parlors for viewing films were modeled on phonograph parlors is incorrect because while true it is a minor detail. The Kinetoscope parlors are described in paragraph 2 but the fact that they were modeled on phonograph parlors is not central to the evolution of cinema. Choice 2 Thomas Edison s design of the Kinetoscope inspired the development of large screen projection is incorrect because it is not clear that it is true based on the passage. .
