B. Long answer type questions.
1. What are the five phases of active listening?
Ans. The following are the five phases of active listening.
a. Receiving: This involves paying attention to the speaker and actively taking in the information being communicated
without distractions.
b. Understanding: This means comprehending the message by interpreting words, tone, and non-verbal cues
correctly.
c. Remembering: This refers to retaining and recalling key information from the conversation when needed.
d. Evaluating: This is the process of analysing and assessing the message to determine its validity, importance, and
relevance.
e. Responding: This involves providing feedback through verbal or non-verbal means to show that the message has
been received and understood.

2. What do you understand by Feedback? Why is it necessary in communication?
Ans. Feedback is vital in communication since it allows the sender to determine whether or not the receiver understood
the message. Feedback can be either positive or negative. However, in both circumstances, one must be respectful so
that the person receiving the input doesn’t get hurt or insulted.
3. What is communication? Explain the purpose of sender and receiver in communication.
Ans. Communication is a two-way process in which information or messages are communicated between individuals
through the use of words, symbols, signs, or behaviour. The components of communication that help us comprehend
others are speaking, listening, reading, and writing. To learn a language, four fundamental skills must be developed:
listening, speaking, reading, and writing.
Communication requires a sender who encodes and transmits a message across a channel, and a receiver who decodes
the message and provides feedback.
4. Explain any two factors that influence active listening.
Ans. Following are the factors that influence active listening:
• Eye Contact
Eye contact is a must while communicating. It is one of the most important parts of communication.
Maintaining eye contact with the person you're speaking to communicates to the speaker, "Yes, I'm talking to you
or listening to you." Avoiding eye contact could indicate that you do not want to hear what the person speaking to
you is saying. Avoiding eye contact may also depict lack of confidence.
• Avoiding distractions
You must first identify the sources of your diversions. To listen properly, you must physically remove all distractions.
Reduce the ringtone on your mobile or turn it off while attending a meeting or listening to someone to avoid
distraction. Another example is that you should avoid regularly checking your Instagram/Whatsapp messages.
5. What do you understand by object in a sentence? Differentiate between direct and indirect object using suitable
examples.
Ans. Object is the receiver of the action performed by the subject in a sentence.
