Students listen to English used by speakers from several linguistic and cultural backgrounds in interviews, academic exchanges, tourism, and online collaboration. The teacher wants to address variation without presenting cultural groups as internally homogeneous.

Considering an intercultural approach to English teaching, mark T, for true, and F, for false.

(__)Variation in pronunciation and lexical choice can be examined in relation to context, identity, and communicative purpose rather than automatically classified as communicative failure.
(__)Respect for linguistic diversity requires avoiding work on intelligibility because criteria of mutual understanding necessarily establish a single accent as the norm.
(__)Intercultural activities may investigate how participants negotiate meanings and identities without assigning fixed behavioral characteristics to entire national groups.
(__)Authentic materials containing unfamiliar varieties should be linguistically standardized before classroom use so that variation does not interfere with learning.

After analysis, select the alternative that presents the CORRECT sequence of the items above, from top to bottom.
