Prueba De ComprensiÓn Lectora:

The correct answer is "Se toma de una carta de san Pablo a los habitantes de Éfeso." This answer suggests that the word "adefesio" is of biblical origin because it is taken from a letter written by Saint Paul to the inhabitants of Ephesus.

The author explains that it is ironic that O.K. comes from the expression "oll korrect" because "oll korrect" is an incorrect way of writing in English "all correct". This suggests that the origin of O.K. is not based on a proper or accurate expression, adding to the irony of its usage.

The expression "vamos a tomar las once letras" is a euphemism for "vamos a beber aguardiente" because in Bogotá, the term "onces" is used to refer to a drink, similar to how it is referred to as "algo" in Medellín. Therefore, the correct answer implies that the phrase is referring to drinking aguardiente, which is a traditional alcoholic beverage in Colombia.

The correct answer is "Hablar en vano." This phrase is a synonym for speaking in vain or speaking without achieving any meaningful result. It implies that the person is wasting their words or speaking without purpose.

The correct answer is "Presenta información objetiva para el conocimiento de los lectores." This is because the given statement describes the purpose of the cartelera as presenting objective information for the readers' knowledge. The other options mentioned, such as exposing language theories, validating answers to questions, and inventing answers for common people, do not align with the purpose of providing objective information.

The correct answer is "el aguardiente." The author is referring to "acompañamiento etílico," which translates to "alcoholic accompaniment." In this context, "el aguardiente" is a type of alcoholic beverage that is commonly consumed as an accompaniment to a meal or social gathering.

The author uses examples to refute the theory that using "de" refers to the material a container is made of. By providing examples, the author demonstrates that the use of "de" does not necessarily indicate the material of the container, but rather the content or purpose of the container. This supports the argument that the theory is incorrect.

The correct answer is "cuestionarse '¿de qué se arrepintió Enrique?'" because according to the advice of queísmo and dequeísmo, the speaker should question what Enrique regretted. This is in line with the concept of dequeísmo, which involves the incorrect use or omission of the preposition "de" in certain contexts. By asking "¿de qué se arrepintió Enrique?" the speaker is considering whether the preposition "de" is necessary in this sentence.

The correct answer is "copas hechas en plata que contienen dinero." This means that the "silver cups with silver" are cups made of silver that contain money.

The correct answer is "Formular preguntas". The author advises formulating questions to facilitate the reader's understanding of the rule of dequeísmo. This means that by asking questions, the reader can engage with the topic and actively think about it, which can help them grasp the concept better. It is a strategy often used in teaching to encourage critical thinking and active learning.

A "dequeísmo" refers to the incorrect and excessive use of the word "de" before the word "que". This means that the correct answer is the first option: "El uso incorrecto y exagerado de la palabra 'de' antes de la palabra 'que'."

The author dismisses the idea that using "de" implies that the glass is made of water.

The correct answer is: Comentar que en la carta el santo propone la sumisión de las mujeres a sus esposos.

The author makes a joke about the origin of the word "adefesio" by commenting that in the letter the saint proposes the submission of women to their husbands. This implies that the origin of the word is related to the idea of women being seen as extravagant or ridiculous in their submission to their husbands.

A cartelera es un buen tipo de texto para llamar la atención sobre algunos aspectos clave. Una cartelera es un formato visualmente atractivo que se utiliza para resaltar información importante de manera concisa y directa. Al utilizar colores llamativos, imágenes y palabras clave, una cartelera puede captar la atención de las personas y comunicar de manera efectiva los puntos clave que se desean resaltar. Por lo tanto, la opción "Llamar la atención sobre algunos aspectos clave" es la respuesta correcta.

The author asserts that the theory that talking about a glass of water refers to the measurement is only valid when it comes to recipes.

The correct answer is "licuar" because according to the section on accents, the word "evacuen" should not have an accent since it is derived from the verb "licuar".

According to the author, the correct way to accentuate verbs ending in -cuar is as words with a grave accent and a diphthong.
