Question

which is an advantage of speaking?
a. you can take the time to organize your thoughts.
b. you can say things without showing emotion.
c. you can keep a record of the conversation.
d. you can receive instant feedback from your audience.

Explanation:

Speaking allows for immediate interaction. When speaking, the speaker can observe the audience's reactions (such as facial expressions, nods, etc.) right away. This is instant feedback.

• Option A: Writing often allows more time to organize thoughts as one can revise, while speaking is more spontaneous.
• Option B: Speaking usually involves showing emotion through tone, pitch, etc.
• Option C: Keeping a record is more associated with writing (like transcripts) rather than just speaking.

Answer:

D. You can receive instant feedback from your audience.
