The correct answer is Active

Explanation:

Listening, which is the process of understanding information by hearing it can be classified as active in the case the listener closely pays attention to the speaker and is able to respond to it or as passive if the speaker is not completely engaged in the process of listening. These type of listenings are used and suitable in different situations, but in general terms active listening is required when the listener needs to understand every detail or to give a response to the words of a speaker, this means in the case of the situation presented in which you do not only listen to a speech but need to provide feedback active listening is required as you will need to be completely engaged in the process of listening to understand the information on it and then provide an effective and accurate feedback.
