    Which is the best place to find a definition for a word?

    • An encyclopedia

    • A dictionary

    • A thesaurus

    • An outline

    Correct Answer
    A. A dictionary
    Explanation
    A dictionary is the best place to find a definition for a word because it is specifically designed to provide definitions for words. It contains a comprehensive list of words in a particular language and provides their meanings, pronunciations, and sometimes their origins and usage examples. Unlike an encyclopedia, which provides general information on various topics, a dictionary focuses solely on words and their definitions. A thesaurus, on the other hand, provides synonyms and antonyms for words, while an outline is a structural framework for organizing information. Therefore, a dictionary is the most suitable source for finding word definitions.

    Which method would be least useful in preparing to write a report from several pages of research material?

    • Copying the material

    • Outlining the material

    • Paraphrazing the material

    • Summarizing the material

    Correct Answer
    A. Copying the material
    Explanation
    Copying the material would be the least useful method in preparing to write a report from several pages of research material. Copying the material verbatim does not involve any critical thinking or analysis, and it does not help in organizing the information or understanding the key points. It is simply a duplication of the existing content without any added value. Outlining, paraphrasing, and summarizing the material, on the other hand, involve actively engaging with the information, extracting the main ideas, and rephrasing them in a concise and coherent manner, which are essential steps in the report writing process.
