Question

in the following conversation, which discussion technique does ramona most clearly show?

han:
look, ive been stung a couple of times and had to go to
the hospital. bees are not our friends.

ramona:
i get it, han. you dont care if the bees are being killed off
by a parasite because you think we need to keep using
pesticides to protect our food and because youre allergic
to bees. the fewer the better, right?

a. using multiple sources

b. identifying bias

c. creating a research plan

d. resolving contradictions

Explanation:

Ramona analyzes Han's stance, pointing out that his view (bees are not friends) is influenced by his allergy and belief in pesticide use, showing she's identifying the bias in his perspective. Option A is wrong as no multiple sources are used. Option C is wrong as no research plan is created. Option D is wrong as she's not resolving a contradiction but identifying bias in Han's opinion.

Answer:

B. Identifying bias
