Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Studies suggest the words we use make up just 7% of the impact we have on our audience. The remaining 93% is split between the para-language and the body language.

Body language includes facial expressions, body posture, eye movement, touch and the use of space.

Option D (maintaining eye contact) belongs to body language, is a nonverbal strategy and is the correct answer.
