Developing coherent and cohesive texts is a key competency in language learning, requiring the correct use of linking words to establish logical relationships between ideas. Analyze the following statements regarding the function of connectors in text production.

I.The connector "However" introduces a contrast or contradiction to the previous statement.

II.The connector "Therefore" indicates a conclusion or result following the previous statement.

III.The connector "Furthermore" introduces an opposing viewpoint to refute an argument.

Context clues are essential strategies for reading comprehension, allowing learners to infer the meaning of polysemous words without consulting a dictionary immediately. In the sentence "The bank of the river was flooded after the heavy storm, " the word "bank" assumes a specific geographical meaning. Select the alternative that correctly defines "bank" in this sentence.

When teaching writing for everyday situations, it is essential to address the concept of register, ensuring that the tone is appropriate for the target audience. If a student is required to write a formal letter of complaint to a company regarding a defective product, the closing salutation must match the formality of the content. Select the alternative that presents the most appropriate closing for a formal letter that begins with "Dear Sir or Madam, ".

Textual cohesion depends on the use of reference words to link sentences and avoid repetition, creating a unified whole. Regarding the concepts of anaphora and cataphora in text comprehension, mark T for True and F for False:

(__)Anaphora occurs when a pronoun refers back to a word or phrase mentioned earlier in the text (e.g., "Mary arrived. She was tired.").

(__)Cataphora occurs when a pronoun refers forward to a word or phrase that will be mentioned later (e.g., "When he arrived, John was tired.").

(__)Reference words such as "this", "that", "these", and "those" cannot be used to establish cohesion in a text.

(__)Recognizing referential ties is essential for understanding the logical flow and meaning of a paragraph.

Choose the alternative that presents the correct sequence, from top to bottom.

Phonological awareness is crucial for avoiding communication breakdowns, especially when dealing with minimal pairs, which are words that differ by only one phoneme but have distinct meanings. A teacher is planning a pronunciation class to help students distinguish between voiced and voiceless interdental fricatives /ð/ and / θ/. Select the alternative that presents a minimal pair distinguished solely by this specific phonological contrast.
