Question

In the following conversation, which group discussion technique does Emily
most clearly show?
HAN:
Even though the author of the article is saying that the
radiation hasn't made Japan's exported food dangerous to
eat, he's pulling out all the stops to make it seem as if
Japan really messed things up, even though there's proof
the disaster couldn't be prevented.
EMILY
So you think the theme isn't really about the
contamination, but about how Japan can't prevent natural
disasters from destroying the reactors?

Answer 1

Answer: Option B, Assessing the claims of your discussion partner

Explanation:

Emily is trying to assess and evaluate her discussion partner's claim by asking the question that is giving the sense of doubts on their statements that the main theme is about the contamination.

Her answer does not have direct contradicting and with her question she is trying to analyze everything that her discussion partner Han claimed by asking him what are his thoughts based on that situation.
