Question

Counselors and psychologists often point out that much of the conflict between men and women stems from the very different ways in which they use language.

Linguistics expert Deborah Tannen says men use language for “report talk” while women use it for “rapport talk.”

She believes that for women, conversation is a way of establishing connections and negotiation relationships; emphasis is on finding similarities and matching experiences.

For men, talk is used to show independence and maintain status; this is done by exhibiting knowledge and skill and holding center stage by verbal performance.

Thus, men are usually more comfortable doing public speaking and can be taciturn at home while many women talk little in public situations but are articulate in small groups.

What is the correct organization pattern?

Question 10 options:

	Classification and Partition
	Cause and Effect
	Comparisons
	Spatial Organization
	Chronological
	Example
	Problem-Methods-Solution
	General to Specific
	Specific to General
	Order of Importance

Answer 1

The correct answer is :Comparisons

In this case,the speaker discusses about the two main points :

1. Conversation objective and style of Women

2.Conversation objective and style of Men

The two main points are compared and are in contrast to each other.Hence,the correct organization pattern is comparison/contrast.
