'A' and' B' sections are required reading. If you are extremely short of time and can't read the entire assignment thoroughly, put most of your effort into the 'A' sections, and the 'B' sections more lightly. Reading breaks at the obvious point on the page unless otherwise noted, or in some cases, at the end of a page. 'R' means recommended.
