Speaking Practice Question

Question

A practitioner wants to reduce risk before proceeding for the TOEFL iBT involving sentence simplification in Speaking. Which option best reduces risk or error? (Item 186)

Answer choices

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

Correct Answer

B. The best answer is to select the response that best supports accurate academic comprehension, integration, and clear English expression for the sentence simplification scenario.

Explanation

The correct answer is B because sentence simplification 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.
