This question was previously asked in
UGC NET 2019 Paper 1 Question Paper (5-Dec-2019) (Shift 2)
The correct answer is

(a) and (d) only

The question asks us to identify the skills promoted by communication from the given options. Communication is a broad concept that involves various skills, primarily focusing on understanding and expressing information. Let's analyze each option one by one:

  1. Reading and Listening: These are receptive communication skills. Reading involves understanding written texts, and listening involves understanding spoken language. Both skills are essential for processing information.
  2. Listening and Helping: Listening is a communication skill, but helping is more of an action or supportive behavior rather than a communication skill.
  3. Helping and Speaking: Similar to the previous point, speaking is a communication skill involving oral expression, but helping is not directly a communication skill.
  4. Speaking and Writing: These are productive communication skills. Speaking involves verbal communication, and writing involves expressing thoughts in written form.

From the above analysis, we can conclude:

  • (a) Reading and Listening are skills promoted by communication.
  • (d) Speaking and Writing are also skills promoted by communication.

Therefore, the correct choice includes both (a) and (d) only.

Thus, the answer is (a) and (d) only.
