Practice Reading: Multiple Choice, Single Answer ID: #5574 Learning 3
Instructions ›
Read the text and answer the multiple-choice question by selecting the correct response. Only one response is correct.
The approach to the methodology of learning and teaching has to be comprehensive, presenting all options in an explicit and transparent way, and avoiding advocacy or dogmatism. It has been our fundamental methodological principle that the methods to be employed in language learning, teaching and research are those considered to be most effective in reaching the objectives agreed in the light of the needs of the individual learners in their social context. Effectiveness is contingent on the motivations and characteristics of the learners as well as the nature of the human and material resources which can be brought into play.

Option 3: "There is no single best method for learning."

Explanation: The text indicates that the methodology of learning and teaching must be comprehensive and adaptable to individual learners' needs, suggesting that no single method is universally best. This aligns with the idea that effectiveness varies based on context and learner characteristics.

Option 1: "Motivation is worth more than intelligence in learning."

Explanation: This option suggests a comparison between motivation and intelligence, which is not addressed in the text. The text emphasizes the importance of motivation but does not claim it is more valuable than intelligence. Therefore, this option misrepresents the author's point.

Option 2: "Language can be effectively learnt through play."

Explanation: While the text discusses effective methods for language learning, it does not specifically mention play as a method. This option introduces a specific method that is not supported by the text, making it incorrect.

Option 4: "Teachers should regularly change their methods."

Explanation: This option implies a need for constant change in teaching methods, which is not stated in the text. The text focuses on the effectiveness of methods based on learners' needs rather than advocating for regular changes, making this option incorrect.
