Sample question
Two students read the same poem about leaving home. One recently migrated and feels it deeply; the other finds it only mildly interesting. What best explains the difference?
  • Their different experiences and contexts shape what they notice and feel
  • One student has read the words more accurately than the other
  • The poem changes its meaning for each reader at random
  • Only the author's intended meaning matters, so one student is mistaken
Show the worked answer

Answer: A

The difference arises because each reader brings a different set of experiences and context to the poem. Reading the words more accurately is not the issue, since both read the same words. Meaning does not change at random, and an author's intention is not the only valid source of meaning.
