Re: People often pronounce a word differently when asked to read written [#permalink]
The evidence provided in the passage suggests that there are differences in the way people pronounce words when reading written material aloud compared to when speaking spontaneously. This discrepancy may cause problems for computer systems that recognize speech. The passage also mentions that developers typically train computers using samples of written material read by the people who will be using the computer.

The conclusion that can be reasonably drawn from this evidence is:

(C) Computers may be less reliable in decoding spontaneous speech than in decoding samples that have been read aloud.

The evidence suggests that the differences in pronunciation between reading written material and speaking spontaneously could lead to difficulties in recognizing spontaneous speech. This conclusion aligns with the evidence presented in the passage. The other answer choices do not follow logically from the evidence provided.
