Correct Answer is A

Explanation

A. A monotone voice in a young child is a possible manifestation of hearing loss. Children learn to modulate their voice based on the sounds they hear. If a child has a hearing impairment, they may be unable to hear pitch, tone, or volume correctly, resulting in flat or monotone speech.

B. While repetition can occur in children with hearing loss, it is also common in normal speech development and not specific to hearing issues. Repeating statements could reflect language processing or mimicry rather than hearing difficulty.

C. Quick responses to questions and short sentences suggest normal hearing and comprehension.

D. Preferring to play in groups does not necessarily indicate a hearing issue.

A. "Your child's feet should be 3 to 6 inches off the ground when seated on the bicycle." B. "Your child should walk the bicycle through intersections." C. "Your child should ride the bicycle against the flow of traffic." D. "Your child should keep the bicycle at least 3 feet from the curb while riding in the street."

Correct Answer is B

Explanation

A. The seat height should allow the child to have both feet flat on the ground when seated, ensuring they can stop the bike safely.

B. Walking the bicycle through intersections is the safest practice, as it ensures the child is aware of their surroundings and less likely to be involved in a collision.

C. Children should ride with the flow of traffic to be visible to drivers, not against it.

D. Keeping the bike 3 feet from the curb is not ideal. Children should ride as close to the curb as possible without endangering themselves.
