Tóm tắt

Having examined some examples of confrontation, we notice that there are certain structural elements common to them. They are a basic difference of opinion on some point, a “funnel-like” process which includes two yes/no questions or “invitations” which the confronted must complete properly, and a “punch line” that contradicts the confronted's initial statement.
