Anthony is quite capable in all academic areas, although not particularly self-motivated. Usually, he doesn't care about his gra

des, but if there's a contest for the highest score on an assignment, he suddenly comes alive! Immediately, his habits change as he studies for hours and digs up all kinds of minor facts about the subject.

although
immediately
but
usually

jenyasd209 [6]
Based on the given dialogue above, the discussion technique that Daniel is clearly showing is challenging established ideas. The answer would be option A.
