According to the material, which gender is better at using feeling words by age 2?

• A. Girls
• B. Boys
• C. Both Equally
• D. Cannot Tell

Answer: (A)

The idea being tested is how early language development shows gender differences in how emotion words are learned. By age 2, girls tend to use more feeling words than boys, indicating a larger early emotional vocabulary and more practice labeling emotions through everyday interactions with caregivers and peers. This pattern is what the material highlights, which is why girls are identified as better at using feeling words by age 2. The other choices don’t fit because the material does not indicate that boys lead, nor that both are equal, nor that there isn’t enough information.
