PASSAGE
During a group discussion, Chen says to Liu: '你的意思是我们应该取消计划，对吗？' Liu actually meant they should POSTPONE, not cancel. Liu wants to use a negation-and-clarification pattern to correct this without being dismissive.
Liu needs to negate the specific word 'cancel' while asserting 'postpone,' and also acknowledge that Chen's interpretation was a reasonable misreading. Which response best accomplishes all three communicative goals?
