Island of the Blue Dolphin for GATE
I felt my GATE students needed more in depth and complexity reading comprehension short answer responses. So I varied my other product I purchased and added to it.

FYI, There is one question that includes the book, The Great Horn Spoon. You can ignore this one, if you haven't read the story.)
