Hunter Shelton · Answer 1

conversation AND carefully listened

Conversation tells us that the people are speaking back and forth. Carefully listened tells us that there is some noise to be heard. The other phrases "Not only" and "It was also" do not reveal anything that could be useful for understanding the word "dialogue". A context clue gives the reader hints about what a particular word in the passage could mean.

The phrases carefully listened and conversation provide a context clue for the definition of the word dialogue. This is because a dialogue is a conversation between two or more people, and is generally spoken, so it can be listened to.
