Question

Which of the following are true of critical thinking skills practiced in a public speaking class?

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer is Option C: sensing when someone does not understand what you are saying.

Explanation:

Public speaking is a structured language which is more formal than our everyday casual conversation. The speaker effectively organizes his ideas before presenting it to the audience. He tries avoiding pauses like ‘um’ in his speech. Also, the speaker tries to anticipate the questions of the audience because he has the ability of thinking critically.

Thus, option C is most apt that one can sense when someone is not understanding what he/she is saying. So, he would try to present his ideas more effectively to explain the point. It doesn't mean telling a great story or speaking without time limitations or communicating to a different age group as per other options.
