This is a personal question. I will answer below according to the word that was unfamiliar to me, but feel free to add to the answer in case there were more for you.
Answer and Explanation:
The word that I found unfamiliar and whose meaning I did not know at first was "behest". I had never seen that word before. To understand its meaning, I looked for context clues. <u>The rest of the sentence in which "behest" appears functions as a clue to finding its meaning. It says that, at a person's behest, something happened: "the Exhibition dropped its superfluous rags and stripped itself. . ." As soon as I read this part, it made me think of the word "command." For instance, the sentence "At the general's command, the troops advanced" has a similar connotation to the one with "behest".</u>
To confirm my assumptions, I looked the word up online and found it indeed means "order" or "command".
This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:
The idea that it is often necessary to negotiate a shared meaning in order for satisfying communication to occur relates to which characteristic of the communication model?
a) Sending and receiving are usually simultaneous
b) meanings exist in and among people
c) environment and noise affect communication
d) channels make a difference
e) none of the above
Answer:
The idea that it is often necessary to negotiate a shared meaning in order for satisfying communication to occur relates to:
b) meanings exist in and among people.
Explanation:
According to the transactional communication model, meanings reside in the people involved in communication. People are the ones who express and interpret meanings. The messages themselves, be them verbal or nonverbal, do not have an inherent meaning. Therefore, for communication to occur satisfactorily, meaning needs to be successfully conveyed and understood.
The allusion refers to Albert Einstein and his scientific ideas
