A teacher who believes firmly in language-centered approaches would state that
- dialogue 2 does not serve as a teaching model, since it contains incomplete or agrammatical sentence structures.
- dialogue 1 is more suitable as a resource to teach about language register.
- both dialogues, despite their differences, are appropriate examples of language accuracy.
- dialogue 1 is more adequate as it reproduces the typical question-and-answer oral language interaction.
- only dialogue 2 represents authentic language use, since it contain errors and hesitations.

Gabarito
A
Comentário do professor
A alternativa A está correta porque um professor language-centered prioriza a correção gramatical e modelos linguísticos bem formados para a aprendizagem.
No Text 2 aparecem pausas, hesitações e enunciados não concluídos, como “At nine fift…”, além de fragmentos e sobreposições. Essas ocorrências são características da fala espontânea, autêntica mas inadequada quando o objetivo é ensinar estruturas gramaticais padrão.
Portanto, esse professor rejeitaria o diálogo 2 como modelo de ensino, por conter sentenças incompletas ou percebidas como agramaticais, que poderiam confundir alunos ao invés de ilustrar formas corretas e sistemáticas.
