Correct answers:
- "Could you explain how . . ."
- "What are your thoughts on . . ."
- "Who is responsible for . . ."
- "I'm not sure I understand . . ."

Reason: These openers invite explanation, perspective, or clarification in a neutral way. "You are failing to remember that . . ." is accusatory and not an effective clarifying opener.
