BExpressing personal concern
CExplaining the speaker's meaning to others
DOffering one's own viewpoint when in conversation
Correct answer: (A) Paraphrasing the speaker's meaning
Explanation
Paraphrasing the speaker's meaning, restating it in one's own words, is a core technique of the active listener.
It lets the speaker check what message is getting across and correct any misunderstanding.
Voicing one's own personal worry shifts focus to the listener rather than confirming the speaker's message.
Explaining the speaker's meaning to others is relaying, not the listener's direct feedback to the speaker.
Offering one's own viewpoint interrupts with opinion instead of reflecting back what was heard.
Paraphrasing often opens with phrases like what I hear you saying is.
