IB-style rubrics with descriptors for Criterion A (Analysis), B (Evaluation), and C (Structure) are often included.

If you are a student, your university library may have a physical copy of the answer key on course reserve. You cannot check it out, but you can photocopy specific pages for the unit you are studying. This is completely legal and ethical.

For each text, the key offers bullet-point answers. For example, for Maya Angelou’s “Still I Rise,” a question might ask: “Identify three examples of natural imagery and explain how they contribute to the poem’s tone of resilience.” The answer key would list: “tides, moons, suns” and explain how rising celestial bodies mirror the speaker’s indomitable spirit.
