Concept:Emphatic stress highlights the word that corrects or contrasts with the information in a question.
Explanation:If the sentence stresses PRESIDENT, it means the listener had the wrong person in mind.
The word “minister” in option A is the only one that wrongly names a different person.
Options B, C, and D already mention “president,” so no emphasis would be needed.
Thus, the stressed sentence properly answers option A.
Answer:A. Did the minister speak to the press yesterday?
