Fluency is important because it allows readers to focus on __________ and not __________.

  1. Speed; fluency

  2. Decoding; meaning

  3. Meaning; decoding

  4. Syntax; pronunciation

The correct answer is: Meaning; decoding

Fluency is the ability to read text accurately, quickly, and with expression. When a reader is fluent, they can focus on understanding the meaning of the text rather than struggling with decoding individual words. Option C is correct because fluency allows readers to focus on meaning (understanding the text) rather than decoding (figuring out individual words). This is why improving fluency is crucial in developing proficient readers.
