Answer: option D
Explanation:
Marguerite is perceptive. She has sensitive insight.
Because one loves you, Helen Grey,
Is that a reason you should pout,
And like a March wind veer about,
And frown, and say your shrewish say?
Don't strain the cord until it snaps,
Don't split the sound heart with your wedge,
Don't cut your fingers with the edge
Of your keen wit; you may, perhaps.
Because you're handsome, Helen Grey,
Is that a reason to be proud?
Your eyes are bold, your laugh is loud,
Your steps go mincing on their way;
But so you miss that modest charm
Which is the surest charm of all:
Take heed, you yet may trip and fall,
And no man care to stretch his arm.
Stoop from your cold height, Helen Grey,
Come down, and take a lowlier place;
Come down, to fill it now with grace;
Come down you must perforce some day:
For years cannot be kept at bay,
And fading years will make you old;
Then in their turn will men seem cold,
When you yourself are nipped and grey.

There are different methods to deliver a message to an audience, they have advantages and disadvantages depending of the purpose and nature of the speech to deliver. According to terms of interaction with the audience, impromptu is the one with most interaction since it involves giving the message directly without advance preparation relying on the reaction of the audience. Extemporaneous is the next, which involves giving a carefully planned speech; manuscript is the next, which is giving word by word a text written previously; memorized is the last, as it involves the speaker committed to memory, without adding anything to interact with the audience.
