tapping on the podium with the fist

Explanation:

Body gestures such as "tapping on the podium with the fist" are often used by good speakers to help make their points and to keep the audience engaged.

This is because "tapping on the podium with the fist" gives a sound like exclamation that drives home a point that tends to show the power and confidence on the part of the speaker.

Option B: rapidly tapping one foot on the floor: shows impatience or releasing of tension. Hence, this is not correct.

Option C. making a hand movement for the listener to come towards the speaker​: is a means of asking someone to come forward only, not necessarily to express or give credence to a point. Hence, this is not correct as well.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
