An Answering Phrase
In some music, pairs of phrases of the same length sometimes appear to correspond to each other. The first phrase gives the impression of asking a question and the second phrase of answering it. Think of an average dialogue when someone says one thing and someone else responds to it. The response can fall somewhere between complete agreement to complete disagreement.
