alleryEllis says a task has a clearly defined outcome that is:
AA grammar score
BNon-linguistic
CA spelling list
DA translation
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Non-linguistic
1. Ellis lists four characteristics of a task.
2. One is that it has a clearly defined, non-linguistic outcome.
3. The outcome is something done or decided, such as a plan or a solved problem.
4. A grammar score, a spelling list and a translation are language products.
**Why not the others:** A grammar score, a spelling list and a translation are all language products, not non-linguistic outcomes.
