Give learners the student worksheet. It contains the story and questions, without the answers. Keep this guide for yourself. Use it to lead the activity and explain the answers afterwards.
Student worksheetA simple 15–20-minute lesson
- Before reading · 2 minutes
Show the title. Ask: “What do you think this story is about?”
- Read and answer · 8–10 minutes
Give out the student worksheet. Learners read for the main idea, then reread to answer the 2 questions. They can compare answers with a partner.
- Discuss and write · 5–8 minutes
Check the answers below together. Ask learners to point to the clue in the story, then finish with the open question.
Adjust the support: Let learners use word help or Level 1 if needed. For a challenge, compare the wording in another level. This activity is not a proficiency test.
Answers to the 2 questions
The question numbers match the student worksheet. Each answer includes a reason and the clue learners can find in the story.
What does a market availability figure fail to show?
Correct answer: B — That every visit contains an advertisement
Why: Availability does not equal an impression in every session.
Clue in the story: Availability is different from an ad appearing for every person on every visit. The figures describe markets, while the plan names describe account types. Statements about how the ads work are the company’s stated policies, not an independent test reported here.
How are the safeguards presented?
Correct answer: C — As OpenAI’s stated policies
Why: The article attributes the safeguards to the company.
Clue in the story: Availability is different from an ad appearing for every person on every visit. The figures describe markets, while the plan names describe account types. Statements about how the ads work are the company’s stated policies, not an independent test reported here.
The open question: accept different answers
Ask learners: Explain why service availability and an individual ad impression are different measures.
One possible answer: A service can be available in a country without an ad appearing in every session. Availability describes access; an impression records an actual display.
This is an example, not the only correct answer. Look for a relevant idea, a reason and the learner’s own words. Learners can answer aloud or write one or two sentences.
