buying time with limited agreement.
offering an acknowledgment response.

It seems to me that A would be right

I don't see any limited agreement in A ... unless you have a different idea of what "limited agreement" is.

It's the opposite of C, so that's out.
It has nothing to do with D, so that's out, too.

It has to be B -- do you see why?

Jenna is rephrasing Angelo's statement, which would be an acknowledgment.
