Question
What is a Richtig/Falsch + begründen question?
Answer
A statement you mark true (R) or false (F) AND justify with words from the recording.
Question
In R/F + justify, what do you score for a correct R/F with no justification?
Answer
Nothing — R/F alone earns no marks.
Question
What does „begründen“ mean in this question type?
Answer
To justify — to prove your true/false choice with the relevant words from the recording.
Question
What does „mit Wörtern aus dem Text“ mean?
Answer
With words from the text/recording — your justification must use the recording's own words.
Question
Was ist „die Begründung“?
Answer
The justification — the exact proving words you quote to support your R/F.
Question
Was bedeuten „richtig“ und „falsch“?
Answer
True and false.
Question
Was ist „ein Zitat“ in diesem Kontext?
Answer
A quote — the exact words from the recording used as proof.
Question
What is the 'relevant detail' in a justification?
Answer
The exact part of the recording that proves your R/F — not the whole sentence and not an unrelated line.
Question
How many parts must be correct to score an R/F + justify mark?
Answer
Both — the R/F AND the justification.
Question
What is the five-step method for R/F + justify?
Answer
Read the statement → Locate the part it refers to → Decide R or F → Find the exact justifying words → Write BOTH the R/F and the justification.
Question
Why is a bare R/F worth nothing?
Answer
The question awards the mark for the R/F PLUS the justifying words; without the justification the answer is incomplete.
Question
Why quote the relevant words rather than the whole sentence?
Answer
Copying the whole sentence buries the proof; the mark needs the exact words that decide R or F.
Question
Why watch verb tenses in R/F + justify?
Answer
A past-tense detail („früher…“) can be true once but false now — the tense can flip whether the statement is R or F.
Question
Why is an irrelevant justification not enough?
Answer
It doesn't prove your R/F; only the relevant detail that actually supports the answer earns the justification mark.
