The example from a speech that best fits the description of nonverbal communication is:
D. Giving a thumbs-up to show approval of an idea.
Explanation:
1. Nonverbal communication refers to the transmission of messages or information without the use of words.
2. Giving a thumbs-up is a nonverbal gesture that conveys a positive message of approval or agreement without the need for verbal expression.
3. Unlike options A, B, and C, which involve verbal communication techniques like slowing down speech, speaking quietly, or organizing information, giving a thumbs-up relies solely on a physical gesture to communicate a specific message.
4. Therefore, in the context of the question, giving a thumbs-up is the clearest example of nonverbal communication among the options provided.
