  1. (1) Both A and B are true.Correct answer
  2. (2) Only B is true.
  3. (3) Both A and B are false.
  4. (4) Only A is true.

Solution.

CBSE answer: (1)

Answer: (1) Both A and B are true.

  1. Reading and writing grow together in the early years.
  2. When children write, they think about how texts are built, which helps them understand what they read.
  3. Writing also makes them search for and use new words, so vocabulary grows.

Trap: choosing 'Only A' or 'Only B' treats reading, writing and vocabulary as separate skills, which the integrated view rejects.
