Academic Skills Practice Question

Question

A candidate is reviewing a practice scenario for the TOEFL iBT involving transition choice in Academic Skills. Which response best applies the concept? (Item 35)

Answer choices

1. A. Skip verification because the previous case had the same answer.
2. B. Document nothing because documentation could create follow-up questions.
3. C. The best answer is to select the response that best supports accurate academic comprehension, integration, and clear English expression for the transition choice scenario.
4. D. Rely on informal custom instead of the applicable rule, control, or standard.

Correct Answer

C. The best answer is to select the response that best supports accurate academic comprehension, integration, and clear English expression for the transition choice scenario.

Explanation

The correct answer is C because transition choice is tested by asking candidates to select the response that best supports accurate academic comprehension, integration, and clear English expression. The distractors reflect common exam mistakes: ignoring context, using informal shortcuts, skipping verification, or applying a rule from the wrong domain.
