Q112

To help students to develop their vocabulary, a teacher is using the material that contains language that has been made easier for students and is based on authentic material. This material is :

  1. (1) Role-cards.
  2. (2) Bilingual dictionaries.
  3. (3) Graded readers.Correct answer
  4. (4) Newspaper.

Solution.

CBSE answer: (3)

Answer: (3) Graded readers.

  1. Graded readers are books written or simplified at set levels, often from real stories and texts.
  2. The language is controlled so learners meet new words at a level they can handle.
  3. Role-cards are for speaking tasks, and a bilingual dictionary only gives meanings.

Trap: (4) a newspaper is authentic but not simplified for learners.
