Which comprehension question would effectively test ESL students’ understanding of a character's sentence?

  1. How many conversations did Leigh have with his dad?

  2. How does Leigh feel about his dad?

  3. What does it mean to count someone's words?

  4. What are Leigh and his dad counting?

The correct answer is: How does Leigh feel about his dad?

The question regarding how Leigh feels about his dad effectively assesses students' comprehension of the character's emotional state and relationship dynamics. It encourages learners to reflect on the character's sentiments and motives, which are often central to understanding narrative context in literature. By focusing on feelings, students must engage with the text at a deeper level, analyzing character actions and dialogues to infer emotional aspects. This aligns with higher-order thinking skills as it requires interpretation beyond just recalling facts or details, helping ESL students practice empathy and critical analysis in their reading comprehension.
