Kimberly starts a presentation on child safety by sharing that "more than 200 million children today are child laborers, and 73 million of these children are below 10 years. Can we do anything about these numbers?" This makes the audience attentive and responsive throughout the presentation. In the given scenario, which of the following types of hooks does Kimberly use to open her presentation?
A. A simile
B. An engaging question
C. An anecdote
D. A startling statistic

The best answer seems to be letter B. an engaging question.

Explanation:

Even though Kimberly did use some startling statistics about child labor, it is her question that engages the audience. Rhetorical questions are a tool to get your audience thinking when you are giving a speech. The audience will begin to ponder what you have asked about, trying to find a solution for it. Therefore, they will pay close attention to what you have to say on that matter, to how you answer your own question.
