Reading Practice Question

Question

A client-facing situation requires a compliant response for the TOEFL iBT involving argument support in Reading. Which statement is most accurate for exam purposes? (Item 119)

Answer choices

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

Correct Answer

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

Explanation

The correct answer is C because argument support 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.
