Explanation / Answer
Let us look at (b) first. Delivering a speech enthusiastically might be only a secondary expectation of the listeners. This is also not absolutely true that the speaker want to memorize his/her speech, therefore (c) is also not the correct answer. (d) mentions that the audience want to be entertained that is also not the case. Thus, we are left with option (a). Personalizing ideas may also mean presenting some examples with facts and figures. The listener clearly would then be relatively more able understand the speech. Therefore (a) may be the correct option.
