Solution.

CBSE answer: (2)

Answer: (2) Maintaining a predictable routine.

  1. Children with autism often feel anxious with sudden change.
  2. A clear, predictable routine, often shown with visual schedules, helps them feel secure and focus on learning.
  3. Audio-visual aids are actually very useful for them; punishment and forced eye contact add stress.

Trap: (4) seems caring, but constant eye contact can be uncomfortable for many autistic children.
