I agree with both your answers.
Which statements best express the strategy of semantic extension?
a. The teacher uses redundancy to teach new vocabulary
b. A mother says the same word twice in succession when speaking to her child
c. Semantic extension involves the repetition of words & sentences, recasting them in different forms.
d. a teacher builds on a child's verbal facility by lengthening sentence structure
Would the correct answer be D.
2. During a class finger painting
activity,Doresha appeared perplexed
by the teacher's question,
"What are you doing, Doresha?"
Doresha did not respond quickly
or with ease. Which one of the
following could NOT be a reason
why this eventcast posed a concern
for her?
A) Doresha is from a mainstream
culture.
B) Describing an action is not
practiced in her home or by
her friends.
C) Asking someone to explain an
action the questioner is witnessing
is considered disrespectful.
D) The use of language for labeling
an event or something obvious is
unusual in most cultures.
Am stuck between C and D
I'm not sure, but I believe your first answer is right.
The second one is probably C.
10. For children who are learning English as a second language, context embedded activities enhance:
a. written language
b. child-child socialization
c. vocabulary development
The emphasis here is on "who are learning English as a second language" -- therefore the answer is C.
You need to re-think the answer to the first question in your second set. Remember the connection between "semantics" and "vocabulary" in learning a new language.
