Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Mrs. Zuckerman may have felt uncomfortable due to the nearness of the other speaker, as standing too close can be seen as a violation of personal space and can make someone feel uneasy. The other options (excited speech, lack of preparation for questions, and threatening arm gestures) do not necessarily indicate why Mrs. Zuckerman might feel uncomfortable in this situation.
