 D. all of these

Listening strategies are various tactics used to enhance understanding of spoken information and messages. While "all of these" might not be a common answer in a typical test, each of the options listed can play a role in making predictions about the speech and in drawing and evaluating conclusions:

A. Find the thesis: The thesis of a speech is the central argument or main point that the speaker is trying to convey. By identifying the thesis, listeners can better predict what further points or evidence the speaker might present and can also begin to form their own conclusions regarding the validity and implications of the argument.

B. Review the information: Periodically reviewing the information that has been presented in a speech can aid listeners in understanding the flow of the argument, the structure of the speech, and the primary points made. This can help in making predictions about where the speech is heading and in evaluating the conclusions the speaker is building towards.

C. Take good notes: Good note-taking helps listeners to keep track of key points, important data, and the sequence of ideas. This record can then be used to predict what topics might follow and to evaluate conclusions by reflecting on the evidence and arguments provided throughout the speech.
