is there a chart or source to help us guide you to the answer?

old question but will respond so this can be closed

keep in mind it is a *visual* aid about the geographical features in *America*

therefore, choice 1 wouldn't work (the speech is not about America vs. Europe)
choice 4 wouldn't work either, as this is a bad example of a visual aid (simply listing out what the features are is not a good way to help listeners' visualize where these features are or what they look like)

between choices 2 and 3, try to see which one is a better visual aid that would help listeners understand the geographical features in America
