Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

Question restatement: The study reported the proportion of target words acquired after reading the texts.
Option 1: 50%. This figure seems high for passive reading-based word acquisition studies, which typically yield lower uptake unless augmented by explicit techniques. Therefore, 50% is unlikely to be the reported result.
Option 2: 10%. This option aligns with many reading-education findings where a relatively small share of new target words is acquired through a single exposure or standard reading passage, making it a plausible reported value.
Option 3: 39%. While plausible in some datasets, 39% sits between more conservative and more optimistic estimates and would need specific methodological context to be justified; without that context, it appears less directly anchored to common reading acquisition percentages.
Option 4: 38%. Similar to 39%, this is a specific percentage that could occur in a study, but it’s not the common or textbook-typical figure cited for word acquisition from reading texts unless the study’s data particularly support it; it may seem plausible but lacks the typical alignment with reported findings.
Reasoning about the core idea: The key is understanding that word acquisition from reading texts often yields modest gains unless enhanced by repeated exposure or explicit instruction. Therefore, among the given options, 10% stands out as the smallest, most conservative estimate that would be consistent with a single exposure scenario commonly reported in reading-into-vocabulary studies. Demonstrating why the other options are less likely helps illustrate the general expectations about reading-based vocabulary uptake.
Note: If the study’s actual data show a different percentage, the cited option should reflect that exact figure; the analysis above presumes 10% as the reported value based on typical patterns and the provided answer set.
