Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
Using spare time to repeat key words in your mind can keep you engaged in the speaker's message and prevent your mind from wandering off into daydreaming. This technique is called active listening, and it helps you retain more information and ask better questions. Option A, evaluating the quality of the speaker's delivery, may not necessarily prevent daydreaming and might be distracting. Option C, taking detailed notes, can also be distracting and might cause you to miss key points. Option D, repeating only the facts, may not help you understand the speaker's message as a whole.
