1) have illustrations that give clues to word meanings
2) never vary widely in level or reading difficulty
3) use words familiar to the reader
4) include word patterns
5) are often published in a series

Answer 1

Easy-to-read books often have helpful illustrations, use familiar vocabulary and word patterns, and are frequently part of a series, all of which facilitate a better reading experience. The correct option is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Easy-to-read books are designed to enhance comprehension and provide a pleasant reading experience.

• They often include illustrations that give clues to word meanings, which aids in understanding the text.
• They use words that are familiar to the reader, making the reading less intimidating and more accessible.
• These books may also include word patterns, which help readers recognize and predict text, increasing reading fluency.
• Many easy-to-read books are published in a series, which provides consistency in language and style, and can motivate readers to continue reading.

While easy-to-read books maintain a consistent level of difficulty, it is not correct to say they "never vary widely in level or reading difficulty" because this comparison is relative to the reader's skills and other books. The correct option is 2.
