Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Major components of effective listening in a classroom:

  • Hearing – Physically perceiving the sound.

  • Being attentive – Focusing on what the speaker (teacher) is saying and minimizing distractions.

  • Understanding and remembering – Comprehending the message and retaining key points for later use.

Answering is not a core component of listening itself; it is part of the response or feedback that follows listening. Therefore, 'Answering' is correctly identified as the item that is not a major component of listening.
