Read the poem by Anne Bradstreet. Thou ill-formed offspring of my feeble brain, Who after birth did'st by my side remain, Till s

natched from thence by friends, less wise than true, Who thee abroad exposed to public view; Made thee in rags, halting, to the press to trudge 5 Where errors were not lessened, all may judge. At thy return my blushing was not small, My rambling brat (in print) should mother call; I cast thee by as one unfit for light, Thy visage was so irksome in my sight; 10 Yet being mine own, at length affection would Thy blemishes amend, if so I could: I washed thy face, but more defects I saw, And rubbing off a spot, still made a flaw. I stretch thy joints to make thee even feet, 15 Yet still thou run'st more hobbling than is meet; In better dress to trim thee was my mind, But nought save homespun cloth, in the house I find. In this array, 'mongst vulgars may'st thou roam; In criticks hands beware thou dost not come; 20 And take thy way where yet thou are not known. If for thy father asked, say thou had'st none; And for thy Mother, she alas is poor, Which caused her thus to send thee out of door. What base meter and line length are used? Meter: Line Length:

Body gestures such as are often used by good speakers to help make their points and to keep the audience engaged. A. tapping on
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

tapping on the podium with the fist

Explanation:

Body gestures such as "tapping on the podium with the fist" are often used by good speakers to help make their points and to keep the audience engaged.

This is because "tapping on the podium with the fist" gives a sound like exclamation that drives home a point that tends to show the power and confidence on the part of the speaker.

Option B: rapidly tapping one foot on the floor: shows impatience or releasing of tension. Hence, this is not correct.

Option C. making a hand movement for the listener to come towards the speaker​: is a means of asking someone to come forward only, not necessarily to express or give credence to a point. Hence, this is not correct as well.
