If a person presents ideas in a very soft and shaky voice, what might listeners infer about the speaker?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: The speaker may lack confidence
A soft, shaky voice is commonly interpreted as a possible sign of nervousness or reduced confidence, although voice alone cannot prove a person’s feelings. The word “may” makes option A appropriately cautious. The other options do not fit the usual impression created by a trembling, weak delivery.
