e. reviewing the main points of the speech

Option D. Breathing deeply while paying attention to the sound of lights.

Reason:

I believe option D is the correct answer.

Thinking ahead to the questions the audience may have will help you prepare an answer and reaction to the question. This way you will not be caught off guard with a question that you do not know the answer to.
