Which example demonstrates using 'Please' and 'thank you' with occasional prompting?

• A. Pays attention to speaker during conversation
• B. Maintains conversation by repeating what the other person says or by asking questions
• C. Say Please and thank you with occasional prompting
• D. Uses eye contact

Answer: (C)

Using polite language with cues to use it captures how someone integrates manners into everyday talk. Saying “Please” and “thank you” shows courteous communication, and needing occasional prompting to use them reflects support-driven independence—able to improve with guidance. This is the best fit because it combines verbal politeness with responsiveness to prompts. Other options illustrate different social skills: paying attention to the speaker is listening; maintaining a conversation by repeating or asking questions demonstrates conversational maintenance; eye contact is a nonverbal cue. But they don’t specifically demonstrate the use of polite phrases with prompting.
