Key Points Intonation is the melodic pattern and primarily a matter of variation in the pitch level of the voice, but in the English language, stress, and rhythm are also involved. They convey differences of expressive meaning (e.g., surprise, anger, wariness). They serve the grammatical function, distinguishing one type of phrase or sentence from another. In a listening-speaking assessment activity Teacher: Have you watched any English films lately? Tell your friend about it. Student 1: Of course. Especially animations. Stude nt 2: Me too. I like them a lot. The responses given by students are incorrect responses because as after listening to the instructions, the speaker needs to share the instances or experiences with the friend using intonations. Here, both the students are giving responses to the teacher instead of asking and telling each other. Which leads the teacher to assess their speaking and listening skills. ​Hence, we can conclude that student 1: incorrect response and student 2: incorrect response.
