 From my brother:

Since you seem to be into rhetoric, maybe you can answer something I've 
asked many, including speech instructors and rhetoricians, and never 
gotten an answer to. Is there a term for the technique or tendency to 
address the implicit question or consideration in your listener's mind, 
in the course of making a statement? This quality is very clear to me 
when it's present or not present, and I'm wondering whether there's a 
term for it.
