  a. the monolinguals are more polite than the bilinguals.
  b. the bilinguals are more aware of situations in which a listener might require additional information.
  c. the monolinguals are better at following your instructions.
  d. the two groups are similar in their pragmatic and syntactic skills, but not in their metalinguistic skills.

Question 2

The early research and theory on bilingualism
 
  a. were remarkably sophisticated in terms of manipulating the appropriate variables.
  b. were not valid, because the bilinguals had actually received a greater amount of formal language training.
  c. actually measured short-term memory in monolinguals and working memory in bilinguals.
