    A. Insist that Plum sit up straight.

    B. Present an alternative question.

    C. Say nothing else until Plum confesses.

    D. Discourage Plum from showing emotion.

    Answer:

    Scarlett should present an alternative question.

    Option B

    Explanation:

    Interviewing techniques involves a series of steps according to the Reid technique and presenting an alternative question is one of them. It requires the interviewer to present an alternative question or an extension to the previously asked question.

    For example, the examiner could ask as thus "did you intend to steal the car or your friends forced you to do it?" The alternative represented is a contrast of both negative and positive statements. If the suspect admits one of the choice represented, it means they are guilty of committing the crime.
