Part B

Question

Which detail from the text supports the answer to Part A?

a
“Many teach-abroad programs require a teacher to do nothing more than pass a certification course.” (paragraph 1)
b
“Teachers with no training often come to hate the job, but teachers with proper preparation often prosper.” (paragraph 2)
c
“Many adults in non–English-speaking countries have made learning English a part of their professional development.” (paragraph 4)
d
“As a teacher abroad, one can also have a positive effect on the community and contribute to the personal growth of others”. (paragraph 4)

Answer 1

To appropriately select a detail that supports the answer to Part A, we first need to understand what Part A is asking. However, since the content of Part A is not provided here, I will analyze the options based on common themes.

• Option a suggests that certification courses are not comprehensive enough, which implies a need for better training.

• Option b contrasts the experiences of poorly prepared teachers with those who are adequately trained, suggesting that preparation leads to positive outcomes.

• Option c highlights the demand for English learning in non-English-speaking countries, which might support a point about the global need for English teachers rather than directly addressing teacher preparedness.

• Option d emphasizes the positive impact teachers can have on their communities and the development of others, suggesting benefits beyond just teaching English.

If Part A concerns the importance of teacher preparation and its impact on job satisfaction and effectiveness, then option b would likely be the most relevant choice, as it directly contrasts the outcomes of trained versus untrained teachers.
