The correct option is C.
Verbal communication is a type of communication in which the speaker use words to communicate his feeling and emotions. A non verbal communication on the other hand use other means, rather than words to pass across information. Smiling for instance, is a form of non verbal communication. Thus, smiling while talking, is an instance of using non verbal communication to complement verbal communication.
