Read the passage below and answer the questions that follow :Reading for Success1. Not too long ago, a group of teachers conducted a study on students and their learning problems. A curious fact came to light from the study. The teachers discovered that the students who did poorly in subjects such as math and art could still do very well in other subjects.But the students who were poor at reading, performed badly in all subjects.2. No doubt there are other skills involved, such as learning to add and subtract in math, but most of the explanations about how to do things have to be read by the students. Much of the assignments require students to read long sets of directions and questions. These often involve story problems that are explained in words and have to be read and understood before they can be solved.3. So, your success or failure in class depends on your ability to read and understand the study-related material. In college, almost all your study time will be spent in reading. You need more and more information and most of this information comes in the printed form. Success in various courses vastly depends on the ability to read, and students who cannot read, or at least read well enough to master the material, are in trouble.4. We are fast moving into a world where every day more and more technical reading is required. Instructions for using applications are becoming more complex. There are written instructions related to food preparation, traffic signs, travel, and safety and security, all requiring the ability to read. People in modern society read hundreds of words every day.5. The ability to procure and retain a job is directly related to your ability to read. The number of semi-skilled and professional occupations that require high reading ability is increasing rapidly. Today, a person who cannot read is almost unemployable. Even the simplest jobs require some amount of reading ability, and many people advanced to more important and better paying jobs by getting additional knowledge, skills, and qualifications through reading. The more specialised the job, the greater the need to read confidently, quickly, and efficiently.1. What did the study of a group of teachers reveal?a. The study revealed that students who did poorly in reading could still do very well in other subjects, but the students who were poor at math and art performed badly in all subjects.b. The study revealed that students who did poorly in subjects such as math and art could still do very badly in other subjects, but the students who were poor at reading performed badly in all subjects.c. The study revealed that students who did poorly in reading could still do very well in other subjects, but the students who were poor at math and art performed well in all other subjects.d. The study revealed that students who did poorly in subjects such as math and art could still do very well in other subjects, but the students who were poor at reading performed badly in all subjects.2. How are instructions for using applications becoming more complex?a. Instructions for using applications are becoming more complex with written instructions related to food preparation, traffic signs, travel, and safety and security, all requiring the ability to read.b. Instructions for using applications now have multiple steps and require assembly before use. They require a knowledge of engineering.c. Instructions for using applications are becoming more complex with written instructions related to food preparation, and safety and security, all requiring the ability to read multiple languages.d. Instructions for using applications now have multiple steps and require quality checks before use. They require a knowledge of engineering, safety rules and language.3. How is the ability to read essential in procuring and retaining a job?a. The human brain cannot retain all the knowledge one might require during the course of their job. In such instances, the ability to read and refer to relevant material is essential.b. Most entry-level jobs require degrees, which cannot be obtained without a knowledge of language and reading. Professional growth is impossible without literacy.c. Even the simplest jobs require some amount of reading ability, and many people advance to more important and better paying jobs by getting additional knowledge, skills and qualifications, through reading.d. Reading makes people better at communication in general, which helps them while looking for job opportunities. Advancing to a better job also requires a network that is formed through communication.4. Choose the correct option :The synonym of 'unusual' as given in paragraph 1 is ______.a. curiousb. discoveredc. learnd. study5. Choose the correct option :The antonym of 'clumsily' as given in paragraph 5 is ______.a. abilityb. efficientlyc. quicklyd. professional6. Choose the correct option :The synonym of 'complicated' as given in paragraph 4 is ______.a. cardiob. comprehendc. materiald. complex7. Choose the correct option :The antonym of 'slowly' as given in paragraph 5 is ______.a. relatedb. printedc. rapidlyd. affluent8. How does reading help you to do well in college?a. Reading is very important in school, but it does not matter as much in college. Most of the college student's study time involves project work. However, to be accepted to college, your performance in school needs to be impressive.b. Most of a college student's study time is spent reading to access more information. If the student cannot read well enough to understand and master the material, they will not do well in college.c. College students do not have to do any major reading as most of their study time is spent preparing for internships and presentations. Therefore, reading is not important in college.d. Reading is important in college for the student to understand the instructions that the professor gives about the various projects that the student has to do. If the instructions are not understood properly, the project will be done incorrectly.9. Choose the correct option : 'Today, a person who cannot read is almost _____."a. illiterateb. professionalc. unsuccessfuld. unemployable10. Why is reading important in math?a. In math, before any calculations can be done, the meaning and directions given in the question have to be understood by the student. If understood incorrectly, the calculations will be wrong. Therefore, reading is important in math.b. In math, reading is not important as most of the questions are number based. They do not require an impressive reading ability. Being able to read numbers and mathematical signs is enough.c. In math, the student has to read the numbers carefully to make sure that there are no mistakes in any of the calculations. Therefore, reading is important in math.d. In math, teachers need to have mastery over reading in order to explain mathematical concepts to the students. Therefore, reading is important in math.
