The sentence "Beth and Melissa were both late since she had lost her watch" is ambiguous because the pronoun "she" can refer to any of the two girls.
In order to eliminate such ambiguity, we could rewrite the sentence in the following ways:
- Beth and Melissa were both late since the former had lost her watch.
- Beth and Melissa were both late since the latter had lost her watch.
The word "former" is used to indicate the first-mentioned of two people while the word "latter" is used to indicate the last-mentioned of two people.

Answer: One listener interrupts the speaker by inserting an opinion.
Explanation:
In order for a successful group discussion to take place, it is important that all of the students listen to each other. Everyone's opinion must be taken into consideration, and everyone should be given a chance to express it. However, if the students interrupt each other while speaking, the speaker then cannot make his point clear and convey his idea. In this light, the action that would be the most disruptive to the discussion is - One listener interrupts the speaker by inserting an opinion. Of course, it is not appropriate to laugh at the opinion presented by another student either, but at least the student is not interrupted in the middle of his speech.
