Which of the following statement is True(T) or False(F) are given below. 1. A text book is read only for the pleasure of reading it. 2. Reading is an encoding process of communication. 3. The intention of reading a medical report is to gain information.

Answer: Option D

1. A text book is read only for the pleasure of reading it – False

Textbooks are primarily read for gaining knowledge, understanding concepts, and academic purposes rather than just for pleasure. Pleasure reading is usually associated with novels, stories, or magazines.

2. Reading is an encoding process of communication – False

Reading is actually a decoding process, not encoding. In communication, encoding is done by the sender (writing/speaking), while decoding is done by the receiver (reading/listening).

3. The intention of reading a medical report is to gain information – True

Medical reports are read to understand health conditions, diagnoses, and treatment details. Therefore, the main purpose is clearly to gain information.
