  3. The teacher can give the second-language learners the answers to the questions.

Explanation
Answer: B -When giving an oral assessment, the teacher should allow the second-language learners extra time to take the test. A teacher needs to understand the barriers involved in learning a new language and help take those barriers away. One of those barriers is time, as it takes second-language learners longer to process the information and effectively interpret it.
