Solution

Alligators v/s Crocodiles

The given table provides the distinguishing features between alligators and Crocodiles. While alligators have a U-shaped round snout, Crocodiles are found to have a V-shaped snout. The next difference is based on the habitat of these reptiles. While alligators are found only in fresh water, Crocodiles live in both fresh and saline waters. Alligators have wide jaws, wherein the upper jaw is wider than the lower jaw. As a result, only the teeth in the upper jaw are visible, when its mouth is closed. In Crocodiles however, both the jaws are relatively narrow and of the same size. Hence, both the teeth are visible when the mouth is closed. While Crocodiles have salt glands that are functional, alligators lack salt glands. The final difference between the two is based on the presence and location of sensory pits. In case of alligators, sensory pits are found on scales only near the jaw, whereas, in Crocodiles, these are found in every scale of its body.

   Computer Assisted Language Leaming (CALL) materials come in two main formats: CD/DVD RO Ms and Web-based. Some are tailored to the content to be used in the classrooms whereas others can be used independently. CALL materials allow you to work at your own pace.
   Multimedia materials offer you the opportunity to take part in other computer-assisted activities, such as text-based gap-filling, multiple-choice and text reconstruction activities. Language teachers often develop such text-based CALL activities to accompany a particular course. CALL materials can be regularly updated.
   Because CALL learning activity types are usually designed from a template, they can sometimes be repetitive.
   A major advantage of CALL materials is that they offer instant feedback on your spoken or written performance. However, such feedback can be limited. If you are more interested in creating your own responses or elaborating on your ideas, you may find this type of Facebook frustrating. Web-based CALL materials can offer more variety through the use of hyperlinks, but feedback is still limited.
Just as representations of the cultures of the target language offered by courses using books; audio and videotapes can perpetuate stereotypes.
