What is implicit text?

  1. The text that explicitly states all information

  2. Text that requires the reader to use their mind to find the meaning

  3. Interactive activities provided by the teacher

  4. Text written in metaphorical form

The correct answer is: Text that requires the reader to use their mind to find the meaning

Implicit text refers to words and phrases that subtly imply meanings or ideas, rather than directly stating them. This requires the reader to use their critical thinking skills to understand the underlying message. Option A is incorrect because it is defining explicit text, which is the opposite of implicit text. Option C is incorrect because it is referring to interactive activities, not text. Option D is incorrect because while metaphorical form can be a form of implicit text, it is not the definition of implicit text. Therefore, the correct answer is option B.
