Multiple choice

Directions: Answer the given question based on the following passage:

One of the great challenges for second language teachers has been the implementation of procedures that help learners process comprehensible input while at the same time giving them opportunities for language awareness. In other words, effective second language teaching requires input processing (acquisition) combined with focus on form. It matters little whether we call it language awareness, or consciousness-raising, or linguistic problem-solving. Language is no longer seen as a fixed inventory of structures prescribed by an itemized syllabus that is present in an atomistic and linear fashion. Rather, it is seen as a dynamic process in which learners themselves are involved.

What message does the passage convey?

  1. To work out a formula for linguistic problem-solving

  2. To denigrate the stereotyped manner of prescribing syllabus

  3. To evolve a new system of teaching second language

  4. To give free hand to teachers to experiment on new methodologies

  5. To emphasize on the dynamics of language awareness
