Which term describes a conversation controlled by one person who asks questions of another person?

• A. Jargon
• B. Inflection
• C. Indifferent audience
• D. Interview

Answer: (D)

An interview is a conversation where one person, the interviewer, controls the flow by asking questions and the other person responds. This setup is common in journalism, research, or job screening, and the defining feature is the questioner guiding what gets discussed. Jargon is specialized language, not a conversation format. Inflection refers to changes in pitch or tone, which can occur in any dialogue. An indifferent audience describes the listeners' reaction, not who leads the conversation. So the answer that best fits is an interview.
