Answer: (A)

This item tests understanding that 3PV 3RQ combines six elements to support reading comprehension, especially for English learners. The six components are predicting, determining a purpose, preparing a connection, reading, working with vocabulary, and answering questions. Predicting helps you guess what the text will be about and activates prior knowledge. Determining a purpose clarifies why you’re reading, so you read with a goal in mind. Preparing a connection links new information to what you already know, making meaning easier to grasp. Reading is the active engagement with the text itself. Working with vocabulary focuses on key terms and concepts so you can understand the material as you read. Answering questions checks your understanding and reinforces what you’ve learned. Other options miss one or more of these essential elements, which is why they don’t list all six components.
