Sarah: "Tell me all about your weekend! Was it nice to be on the beach?" Rose: "It was awful! It rained the whole time and I didn't get to spend any time on the beach at all. Instead, we were all
cooped up in the hotel room; my little brother and sister were driving me insane! Hopefully that's the last family vacation
we take for a while!"
Sarah: "I'm so sorry! My weekend was so boring, I spent the whole time by myself with nothing to do. If you'd been here,
we'd have had lots more fun!"
Rose: "It sounds like we both had pretty awful weekends and now we have to deal with that stupid Math test..."
This dialogue reflects what aspect of communication?
a. Women tend to communicate about experiences.
b. Men tend to focus on problem solving.
C. Men and women communicate in very similar ways.
d. all of the above

The answer would be “a. Women tend to communicate about experiences.”

Because b. and c. talk about men focusing on problem solving and how men and women communicate in very similar ways, but nowhere in this story had a dialogue from a man. Also, since d. says all of the above, it couldn’t be that since b. and c. we’re already debunked.

Hope this helped! It was my first answer to a question. And I only answered it because I was trying to find this as well, but everyone else had different answer options than I did.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
