SAT English Practice Question

The idea that there is a “right” way to grieve is one that has long been challenged. While some people may experience grief in ways that seem more traditional—like a period of mourning or a sense of detachment—others may express grief through a more outward, active process, such as writing, volunteering, or joining a support group. Ultimately, it is important to remember that everyone grieves differently, and there is no one “right” way to cope with loss. What is the main idea that this passage expresses?

1. A.there are a variety of ways to grieve.
2. B.grieving is a process that takes time.
3. C.it is important to seek professional help when grieving.
4. D.traditional grieving practices are always the most helpful.
