Answer
Adapt responses to the formality answer: Compare both viewpoints with a similarity, a difference and a whereas link for Adapt responses to the formality.
Explanation
Adapt responses to the formality uses Compare both viewpoints with a similarity, a difference and a whereas link for Adapt responses to the formality because it matches the comparison and viewpoint focus for Listening and responding. It separates the skill from weaker choices and keeps the response tied to the exact objective. Use AO3: compare both sources with a clear similarity, difference and whereas link instead of writing two separate summaries. Listening and responding needs a language method, such as word choice or imagery, linked to reader effect. Listening and responding should plan audience, purpose, form, tone, viewpoint, content and structure before drafting. Listening and responding should use a formal presentation, speak to the audience, listen and respond to each question or feedback, and use accurate Standard English register.
