Answer 1

To analyze another speaker's comments, active listeners need to **pay attention to what others are saying**. This involves being fully present and engaged in the discussion, allowing for a better understanding of the speaker's points and the opportunity to respond thoughtfully. The other options, such as focusing on their own ideas, talking as soon as they get a chance, or jumping in when they disagree, can detract from effective listening and analysis.
