LPIC-1 Exam 102 v5 (Linux Administrator) — Question 107

What is the purpose of a screen reader?

Answer options

• A. It manages virtual keyboards on touch screen displays.
• B. It reads the parameters of the attached monitors and creates an appropriate X11 configuration.
• C. It displays lines and markers to help people use speed reading techniques.
• D. It manages and displays files that contain e-books.
• E. It reads displayed text to accommodate the needs of blind or visually impaired people.

Correct answer: E

Explanation

The correct answer, E, accurately describes that a screen reader vocalizes on-screen text to assist blind or visually impaired users. The other options describe unrelated functions, such as managing keyboards, configuring monitors, aiding in speed reading, or managing e-book files, which do not align with the primary purpose of a screen reader.
