Audio-lingual lessons teach the four skills in the order:
ARead, write, listen, speak
BSpeak, write, listen, read
CWrite, read, speak, listen
DListen, speak, read, write
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Listen, speak, read, write
1. Audio-lingualism stresses the audio, meaning listening and speaking, first.
2. Skills are taught in the order: listening, speaking, reading, writing.
3. Reading and writing are introduced in the next stage, using the oral lesson as material.
4. So the order begins with listening.
**Why not the others:** The other orders put reading or writing first, which would reverse the oral-first principle.
