Question 1 • IA-English Language Arts 11 A

Read the scenario about a formal discussion.During a class discussion, Tamika presents complex information on the topic. Charlotte believes she understands the information but wants to make sure her understanding is correct.

Answer
A
Charlotte should paraphrase what was said so Tamika can confirm Charlotte’s understanding.
B
Charlotte should interject immediately with a question while Tamika is still presenting.
C
Charlotte should wait for other participants to question Tamika to confirm her understanding.
D
Charlotte should use body language to indicate that she needs Tamika to clarify her main points.

Explanation

Charlotte can check her understanding by restating Tamika’s complex information in her own words. Tamika can then confirm or correct the paraphrase. Waiting for someone else to ask, interrupting the presentation, or relying on body language would not directly verify what Charlotte understood.
