Hutchinson and Waters (1987) use the analogy of a tree to get to a definition of what ESP is. However, they approach this definition by showing not what ESP is, but rather by showing what ESP isn’t.

Choose the statement that is true according to their definition:

• A. ESP is a matter of Science words and grammar for Scientists, Hotel words and grammar for Hotel staff and so on.
• B. ESP is not an approach but a product. ESP is a particular kind of language or methodology and it consists of a particular type of teaching material.
• C. ESP is not different in kind from any other form of language teaching, in that it should be based in the first instance on principles of effective and efficient learning.
• D. ESP is a methodology. Methodologies that have been applied in ESP classrooms could just as well have been used in the learning of any kind of English.
