ANALYSIS:By stressing GOING TO (which means ‘to have an intention to”) the speaker is asking about what plans have already been decided upon.
NOTES:The PAUSE after GOING TO and the LENGTHENING of the word combine to really emphasize the direction of the question. The second CHUNK focuses on THIS (rather than PROBLEM or FIX) which is a little bit more friendly and less challenging. Focusing on PROBLEM would highlight the difficulties that has been created, and focusing on FIX might suggest that the solution needs to be completely permanent, ‘fixed’ for good.
