Answer:

Formulating a response after a couple of minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

It would be best to listen to the entire message before formulating a response.

• Be alert to the expressive power of a pause.

• Observe the use of gestures, voice, and facial expressions to enhance

the message.

• Listen for changes in volume, intonation, and pitch used to emphasize

important ideas.

• Listen for rhymes, repeated words, and other sound devices.

• Listen for rhetorical strategies and other expressive uses of language.

Take time to reflect upon the message, and try to experience with

empathy the thoughts and feelings being expressed.

C isn't a good strategy for listening for information. Thinking about a response does not help with actively listening.
