Question

Daniel is giving a speech

and loses his place because he didn't prepare clear notes. He gets really nervous and frazzlel
as he tries to continue. He mispronounces several words throughout his speech such as ethic, conformity, and
individualism. In the middle of the speech he puts his hands over his face, looks down at the podium and starts to
mumble parts of his speech at a very high speed. He rushes through the rest of the speech, never looking up at the
audience, and then runs off the stage.
In evaluating Daniel's vocal delivery all of the following are problems for the speaker except?
a.
rate of speech
b.
articulation
C.
pauses
d
pronunciation

Answer 1

C. pauses

Step-by-step explanation:

Daniel mispronounces several words, as stated in the question, and mumbles very fast towards the end. He also didn't prepare clear notes, which was why he was so frazzled. The only thing he didn't do was pause to let the information absorb into the listener, or have an awkward pause in the middle of his presentation.
