Question

[121]. Passage:

Silence in a classroom is often misread. A quiet child may be thinking, translating in her head, or afraid of being laughed at for an accent or a wrong answer. Teachers who reward only quick hands teach children that speed equals intelligence, and silence becomes shame. A better classroom makes room for written answers, pair talk and wait time, so that thought has a chance to form before speech is demanded. Listening, in this sense, is not passive; it is the teacher's first assessment. Which detail about classroom silence does the passage emphasise?

1.
A detail the passage explicitly rejects
2.
An unrelated historical fact
3.
A claim about a different subject
4.
Wait time and pair talk let thought form before speech
