I need help please

In order to be effective, any interview should feature more open-ended than closed-ended questions. Closed-ended questions are those that can be answered with “yes” or “no” or some other brief response. Examples of closed-ended questions are these: “Are you going to vote in the election?” “Do you like your job?” or “Did you see the accident?” Open-ended questions invite more complete answers: “What issues are most important to you in this election?” “What’s the best part of your job?” or “Tell me what you saw happen.” While close-ended questions are sometimes necessary, open-ended questions are much more likely to encourage people to open up and talk freely. The selection’s main pattern of organization is:

This selection's main patter of organization is most definitely a. definition and example. Disregarding transition words, the text emphasizes the organizational pattern proactively. Provided is some evidence to prove my answer true: "In order to be effective, any interview should feature more open-ended than closed-ended questions. Closed-ended questions are those that can be answered with “yes” or “no” or some other brief response." This excerpt from the text is where the definition concept comes into place. The text is defining the term closed-ended question. The text then proceeds to provide examples such as "closed-ended questions are these: “Are you going to vote in the election?” “Do you like your job?” or “Did you see the accident?”
