Answer:
D. acknowledge the potentially embarrassing circumstances under which she is delivering her speech
Explanation:
Most of the students at Wellesley College did not want Barbara Bush to speak because they believed that she was only famous because of her husband (president at the time).

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia<span> is a country situated in </span>Southwest Asia<span>, the largest country of </span>Arabia<span>, bordering the </span>Persian Gulf<span> and the </span>Red Sea<span>, north of </span>Yemen<span>. Its extensive coastlines on the Persian Gulf and Red Sea provide great leverage on </span>shipping<span> (especially </span>crude oil<span>) through the Persian Gulf and </span>Suez Canal<span>. The kingdom occupies 80% of the </span>Arabian Peninsula<span>. Most of the country's boundaries with the </span>United Arab Emirates<span> (UAE), </span>Oman<span>, and the </span>Republic of Yemen<span> (formerly two separate countries: the </span>Yemen Arab Republic<span> or </span>North Yemen<span>; and the </span>People's Democratic Republic of Yemen<span> or South Yemen) are undefined, so the exact size of the country remains unknown. The Saudi government estimate is at 2,217,949 square kilometres, while other reputable estimates vary between 2,149,690 and 2,24</span><span>0,000 sq. kilometres. Less than 1% of the total area is suitable for cultivation, and in the early 1990s, population distribution varied greatly among the towns of the eastern and western coastal areas, the densely populated interior oases, and the vast, almost empty deserts.
