IMO E

a speaker's physical impact including gestures,facial expressions and body carriege is as important as listening to the message.
A.a speaker's physical impact including gestures,facial expressions and body carriege is as important as listening to the message. "speaker's physical impact" is illogically compared to "listening to the message"
B.a speaker's physical impact gestures,facial expressions and body carriege are "speaker's physical impact" is illogically compared to "listening to the message"
C. The Examination of a speaker's physical impact including gestures,facial expressions and body carriege is "the examination" is not parallel to "listening to the message"
D. Examining a speaker's physical impact including gestures,facial expressions and body carriege are "are" is not correct as it points to a singular "Examining a speaker's physical impact"
E. Examining a speaker's physical impact including gestures,facial expressions and body carriege is Correct
