Question

which strategies should you use to confirm or correct predictions while reading? choose three correct answers.
options:

• focus primarily on captions and end notes
• eliminate information that does not support your prediction
• search for details that support your prediction
• revise predictions based on new information
• consider information in text features and the main body of the text

Explanation:

To confirm or correct predictions while reading, we analyze each option:

• "focus primarily on captions and end notes": Not a main strategy for prediction confirmation (captions/end notes are supplementary, not primary for prediction work).
• "eliminate information that does not support your prediction": Incorrect—we revise predictions based on new info, not eliminate opposing info (this would bias understanding).
• "search for details that support your prediction": Correct—finding supporting details helps confirm predictions.
• "revise predictions based on new information": Correct—adjusting predictions with new text info is key.
• "consider information in text features and the main body of the text": Correct—text features (titles, headings) and main body content inform predictions.

Answer:

• eliminate information that does not support your prediction (incorrect, should be unselected)
• search for details that support your prediction (correct, should be selected)
• revise predictions based on new information (correct, should be selected)
• consider information in text features and the main body of the text (correct, should be selected)
• focus primarily on captions and end notes (incorrect, should be unselected)

The three correct strategies are:

1. search for details that support your prediction
2. revise predictions based on new information
3. consider information in text features and the main body of the text
