allison
what about any questions? if there's something you didn't
understand, maybe we can figure it out.
a. promoting participation
b. asking clarifying questions
c. resolving a misunderstanding
d. restating an idea

The correct option is A: Promoting participation.

Explanation:

The correct option is A: Promoting participation, because Allison is cheering Maxim up for being part of the conversational moment, this is: she want him to interact with her in a communicative way. This could be seen on her participations, for example in “We’d love to hear your thoughts” or in “what about any question?” ?” At this respect, we should remember the speech circuit proposed first by Ferdinand de Saussure (1915); in this model it is necessary to have an addresser and an addressee who can send and receive the message that is sent respectively.

The other options are not applicable for different reasons; the option B: asking clarifying questions is not relevant because, if we take in account the first Allison’s participation (“We’d love to hear your thoughts”), she is not making a question; the option C: Resolving a misunderstanding is not pertinent because of, thinking on the context of the conversation, does not seem to exist a misunderstanding between the two conversational agents. The option D: Restating an idea can’t be applicable to the discussion because Maxim, at that moment, hadn’t express any idea yet.
