Question

(i) While reading activities help learners to know their comprehension. (ii) While reading activities trigger possibilities of prediction.

• A. Only (i) is true.
• B. Only (ii) is true.
• C. Both (i) and (ii) are false.
• D. Both (i) and (ii) are true.

Answer 1

Answer:

D. Both (i) and (ii) are true.

• Statement (i): While-reading activities (such as answering comprehension questions, filling in charts, or underlining key points) serve as a monitoring tool. They help learners pause and verify if they actually understand the material as they go, rather than waiting until the end to realize they are lost.

• Statement (ii): These activities often include "stop and think" moments where learners are encouraged to predict what will happen next based on the information they just processed. This keeps the reader engaged and active rather than passive.
