Answer 1

It takes time to develop academic language. - Correct Answer

Explanation: Pointing out mistakes is to be avoided and only used in the later stages of development. Also, language development is better if learning happens in pairs or groups. Models are more about visual cues that suit the learner's knowledge background. Grammatical errors are for a later point in speech and not during development stages. Answers are best kept short and in the fill-in-the-blanks format. Speech is enabled by the use of aids such as charts and critical writing is observed only in intermediate and advanced fluency.
