Answer:

C. Slow down when he reads the quotation.

Step-by-step explanation:

If he slows down, it allows his audience to hear and understand it's meaning. Whispering the quote will only annoy your audience and make it difficult to hear. Reading in a monotone voice only makes people question if the quote was meant as a good or bad thing. When reading with the right amount of emotion, it leaves a strong imprint and impact on the audience. Reading it quickly will only, again, annoy the audience and make it difficult to understand what the speaker is saying.

Hope this helps
