Which term refers to a survey that asks students to share their attitudes about reading, as well as their genre and topic preferences?

• A. Reading inventory
• B. Nonfiction
• C. Biography
• D. Memoir

Answer: (A)

A reading inventory is a survey that asks students about their attitudes toward reading and their genre and topic preferences. This tool helps teachers understand what students enjoy and how they feel about reading so they can choose books and plan activities that will engage them. The other options are types of texts—nonfiction is a broad genre, while biography and memoir are specific kinds of narrative or informational books—so they don’t refer to a survey.
