About this resource
This quiz focuses on literary analysis and reading comprehension of the science fiction short story "Mirror Image" by Lena Coakley. The material is appropriate for 7th grade students and requires students to demonstrate understanding of advanced literary concepts including character development, plot structure, conflict types, theme identification, and textual evidence analysis. Students must analyze complex character relationships, interpret figurative language, understand vocabulary in context using morphological analysis, and trace character arcs throughout the narrative. The story presents sophisticated themes around identity, acceptance, and adaptation that challenge students to think critically about human nature and technological ethics. Students need strong inferential reasoning skills to understand the protagonist Alice's internal conflict as she adjusts to life in a new body, as well as the ability to distinguish between different types of literary conflicts and identify specific plot elements within a complex narrative structure. Created by Amanda Gibson, an English teacher in the US who teaches grade 7. This comprehensive assessment supports instruction by providing multiple opportunities for students to demonstrate their understanding of both story-specific content and transferable literary analysis skills. The quiz works effectively as a summative assessment following a complete reading of the text, allowing teachers to evaluate student comprehension of character motivation, plot development, and thematic elements. It also serves as an excellent review tool before discussions about science fiction as a genre or identity-focused literature, and can be assigned as homework to reinforce close reading strategies. The questions align with Common Core standards CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.7.1 for citing textual evidence, CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.7.2 for determining themes, CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.7.3 for analyzing character interactions, and CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.7.4 for determining word meanings, making it an invaluable resource for measuring student progress in essential middle school reading skills.
