Which strategy is the first step toward an active conversation between two or more people? a. looking for areas of agreement b. asking the others to repeat what you've said c. proposing an idea or claim d. asking open-ended question

I believe it would be C, because if you propose an idea or claim, the other person/people will want to either agree or disagree, and that leads to an argument(s) in which it leads to an active conversation.

1) technical language (writen technical volcabulary)

2) ordinary langauge

3) literary language (because it's text with a rich, descriptive vocabulary)

4) scientific texts (includes texts such as medical reports, legal texts, academic journals, etc)

5) informational texts (texts that are used to convey information to readers, such as technical guides, costumer guides, textbooks)

6) poetic texts. because they are essays, short stories, poems, etc.
