    • None of the above

    Explanation
    A good eye contact style is to look at the person who is speaking. This shows that you are actively engaged in the conversation and interested in what the person is saying. It also helps to establish a connection and build rapport with the speaker. Looking here and there or holding a gaze for more than 5 minutes can be distracting or uncomfortable for the speaker, and may give the impression of disinterest or lack of attention. Therefore, the best eye contact style is to maintain focus on the person who is speaking.

    Resistance to change can indeed create a barrier to communication. When individuals are resistant to change, they may be unwilling to listen to new ideas or perspectives, leading to a breakdown in communication. This resistance can manifest as a refusal to engage in open dialogue or an unwillingness to consider alternative viewpoints. As a result, effective communication becomes difficult, hindering the flow of information and ideas within a group or organization.

    • Adjective phase

    • Noun phrase

    • Verb phrase

    •  Adverbial phrase

    Correct Answer
    A.  Adverbial phrase
    Explanation
    In the given sentence, "here" is used to indicate the location where the car is parked. It does not describe the car or modify a noun, so it is not an adjective phrase. It is not functioning as a verb or describing an action, so it is not a verb phrase. "Here" does not function as a noun, so it is not a noun phrase. However, "here" is modifying the verb "parked" and providing additional information about how the car is parked, making it an adverbial phrase.

    A. Permanent record is available.
    Explanation
    Written communication has several drawbacks, such as being time-consuming, having the potential for leakage of secret information, and experiencing delays in feedback. However, one advantage of written communication is that it provides a permanent record. This means that the information can be preserved and referred back to in the future, ensuring accuracy and clarity in communication.

    Correct Answer
    A. Internet or network
    Explanation
    The communication cycle involves the process of sending and receiving messages between a sender and a receiver. The channel refers to the medium through which the message is transmitted, while decoding refers to the process of interpreting the message. However, the internet or network does not directly constitute the communication cycle as it is a means of connecting individuals or devices, rather than a specific step in the communication process.

    Correct Answer
    A. Descriptive feedback may be oral or written

It can be given orally through verbal communication or written down in a written format such as comments on an assignment or a report. The flexibility of descriptive feedback allows for different modes of communication to effectively provide information and guidance to the recipient.

    Looking at your watch is not a good gesture or body language because it can convey impatience or disinterest in the current conversation or situation. Constantly checking the time can give the impression that you are bored or have somewhere else to be, which can be seen as rude or disrespectful to others. It is important to give your full attention and show active engagement when communicating with others.

It often complements verbal communication and can enhance the overall impact of the message. Non-verbal cues can provide additional context, emphasize certain points, and help to establish trust and rapport with the audience. Therefore, non-verbal communication makes the message stronger by adding depth and clarity to the verbal message.
