My relatives murmured with pleasure when my mother brought out the whole steamed fish. Robert grimaced. Then my father poked his chopsticks just below the fish eye and plucked out the soft meat. "Amy, your favorite," he said, offering me the tender fish cheek. I wanted to disappear.

Amy Tan

Read the implied thesis statement:
Communication skills are crucial for giving and receiving information in your personal life and in the workplace.
Which of the following could be a topic sentence for a paragraph in this essay?

Answers

3. using active listening techniques is an effective way to improve your communication skills

Explanation:

The following can be used as a topic sentence for a paragraph in this essay:

using active listening techniques is an effective way to improve your communication skills.

What is active listening?

All of the senses must be engaged in order to actively listen. In addition to paying full attention to the speaker, it's critical that the "active listener" be "shown" to be paying attention as well; otherwise, the speaker might assume that what they're saying is boring the listener.

Active listening is the process of getting ready to listen, paying attention to the verbal and nonverbal cues being used, and then responding appropriately to demonstrate that you are paying attention to what is being said.

This kind of listening shows that the listener and speaker are on the same page. Speakers get reinforcement that their message is getting across clearly, while engaged listeners take in more information and comprehend it better.

What are communication skills?

You can understand others and be understood by them if you have good communication abilities. These may include, but are not limited to, offering and receiving constructive criticism, public speaking, and attentively listening during conversations.

The abilities you utilize when offering and receiving various types of information are known as communication skills. Examples include expressing fresh thoughts, emotions, or even an update on your project.

The four Cs of communication are listening, speaking, observing, and empathizing. Understanding the contrasts between face-to-face contacts, phone calls, and digital communications like email and social media is also beneficial.

Hence, option C is the correct answer

Word smart: Books are important, word games (Scrabble, Words with friends, Anagrams) are fun, tongue twisters, nonsense rhymes, puns are fun, you have a good vocabulary, you have written some thing (s) that you are proud of. Language Arts and Social Studies are easier than math or science, learning another language is relatively easy.

Number/Logic smart: you can compute numbers in your head, you enjoy brain teasers or games that require logical thinking, your mind searches for patterns, regularities, or logical thinking, Math and/or Science are easier than Language Arts or Social Studies. You enjoy new developments in technology and science, you pay close attention to graphs, statistics, and charts. I like when things are measures/analyzed/categorized/ quantified.

Music Smart: you enjoy singing, you can tell when a note is off key, you listen to music in your spare time, you play at least one musical instrument, you have tunes running through your mind, you can easily keep time to a piece of music with the drum, you have a good sense of rhythm, you know a lot of songs.

People Smart: people come to you for advice, you prefer group sports to solo sports, you have at least three close friends, you go to other people for advice rather than work it out yourself, you enjoy social games like monopoly or cards over individual games, you enjoy teaching others how to do something, you are considered a leader - or think of yourself as one, you are comfortable in the middle of a crowd.

Self Smart: you regularly spend time alone meditating, reflecting, or thinking. You are resilient in the face of setbacks, you think about your goals and how to reach them regularly, you have a realistic view of your strengths and weaknesses, you consider yourself strong willed or independent minded, you keep a diary, you are more comfortable by yourself than in the middle of a crowd, you have a special hobby or interest that few people know about.
