Answer
A
varying his rate in different parts of the speech
B
saying "like" several times a minute
C
demonstrating enthusiasm for the topic
D
pausing frequently in the middle of sentences
E
having a rising intonation at the end of many statements
Explanation
Sam should change habits that distract listeners or make his delivery sound hesitant. Saying “like” several times a minute is a distracting filler, and frequent pauses in the middle of sentences can interrupt the flow of ideas. Rising intonation at the end of many statements can make them sound like questions. Varying his rate and showing enthusiasm are helpful speaking behaviors.
