Engaging in a Formal Discussion — Quiz

Question 9 • Language Arts 11

Read the scenario about a formal discussion. During a class discussion, Tamika presents complex information on the topic. Charlotte believes she understands the information but wants to make sure her understanding is correct. Which action should Charlotte take?

Answer
A
Charlotte should wait for other participants to question Tamika to confirm her understanding.
B
Charlotte should interject immediately with a question while Tamika is still presenting.
C
Charlotte should paraphrase what was said so Tamika can confirm Charlotte’s understanding.
D
Charlotte should use body language to indicate that she needs Tamika to clarify her main points.

Explanation

Charlotte can check her understanding by restating Tamika’s complex information in her own words. Tamika can then confirm the paraphrase or correct any misunderstanding. This is more reliable than body language or waiting for others to ask questions, and it avoids interrupting Tamika while she is presenting.
