Question 1
If a bilingual seven-year-old pronounces the speech sounds of English and Spanish flawlessly, she has probably experienced:
◦ a subtractive bilingual environment.
◦ successive bilingual learning.
◦ simultaneous bilingual learning.
◦ an additive bilingual environment.
Question 2
A teacher notices that one student in her classroom is perpetually hoarse from speaking loudly. What action should she take?
◦ The teacher should remind the child to lower her voice when she yells or appears to be straining.
◦ The teacher should contact the parents to tell them the child has a physiological problem.
◦ The teacher should ask a speech/language pathologist to assess the child.
◦ The teacher should take no action, since the child may come from a cultural background where loud vocal tone is more common.
