Answer 1

Answer:

A. To enable the students to become better readers

• All of the skills, such as reading, writing, speaking, and listening, are built on vocabulary. This demonstrates the importance of learning new vocabulary. 
• Knowing a word's meaning as well as how the word blends into different contexts are referred to as vocabulary awareness. Vocabulary is learned inadvertently by indirect word experience and consciously through explicit instruction in specific topics.
