Which of the following are traits of great listeners? (Choose every correct answer.)
They anticipate how a speaker thinks.
They give speakers their full attention.
They employ exaggeration and either/or approaches to arguments.
They incorporate many "me too" statements and draw attention away from the story

Answer 1

They give speakers their full attention.

Explanation: Great listeners focus on the speaker, avoid interrupting or redirecting the conversation, and listen to understand. The other choices describe poor listening habits (anticipating or finishing the speaker’s thoughts can lead to misunderstanding; exaggeration/either-or framing and "me too" responses shift attention away from the speaker).
