Answer 2

The correct answer is D. I can understand Joe's point of view but I still have a few questions.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is the correct answer because is the only summary that contains reasoning you can use in either a claim or counterclaim. It allows you to communicate qith the other participants in a collaborative discussion by understanding other's point of view but also bringing your own perspective in order to come up with a better solution.
